Summar y ● X-SPDIF 2 USB Audio Class 2.0 is a new designed asynchronous data transmission digital interface, which inherited the high quality of last generation to make it connect to the other devices through IIS directly. It crossed the quality lost of digital signal caused by protocol conversion, while...

Summar y ● The inner multi-level and multi-group LDO combined with solid-state capacitor, which can filter the superposed noise in the power supply. All the circuit units are supplied by the low or ultra-low noise LDO without DC/DC circuit to avoid high frequency switching noise. Even if using USB bus power supply, it can also maintain the high quality for the internal power supply.
Settings & Usage ● Optical/Coaxial/AES The Optical / Coaxial/AES Port can output a maximum 24bit/192kHz sampling rate of PCM signal and 1bit/DSD64 for DoP which are meet the SPDIF coding standard and DoP coding standard. Note: When the front-end devices transfer DSD through Native coding mode, the SPDIF output will turn off, because Native-coded DSD signal can only output from IIS port.

Settings & Usage ● IIS port configuration The bottom dip switch is used for set up the function of IIS port. The definition of dip switch as shown below: 1.DoP code conversion When playing the DSD audio stream of DoP code, switching on can convert the DoP code into original DSD code output from IIS port;...
