XDA-3 DAC
Differential Reference
Note: The USB Input on the XDA-3 will appear to your computer or other source component as
an external DAC or sound card. The XDA-3 CANNOT play audio files directly from a USB stick.
Note: If you play MQA files, or MQA encoded audio from streaming sources like Tidal, the
important "first unfold" is usually performed by your player program. The XDA-3 is neither
"an MQA renderer" nor "an MQA decoder". However you will find that MQA files that are
unfolded by the player client, for example tracks that you play on Tidal using the Tidal client,
will still sound excellent when played through the XDA-3.
WHILE WE CANNOT OFFER DETAILED SUPPORT FOR EVERY SOURCE DEVICE OR COMPUTER
YOU MAY CHOOSE TO USE WITH THE XDA-3, WE WILL BE HAPPY TO OFFER YOU SUPPORT FOR
CONFIGURING AND ENJOYING YOUR XDA-3, AND AS MUCH SUPPORT AS WE CAN REGARDING
HOW TO CONFIGURE VARIOUS PLAYER PROGRAMS TO WORK WITH IT. WE HAVE ALLOCATED
ROOM ON OUR SERVERS FOR A COLLECTION OF RESOURCES ABOUT HOW TO USE YOUR
XDA-3 WITH VARIOUS SOURCES, PLAYER PROGRAMS, AND OTHER DEVICES. THIS LOCATION
WILL ALSO BE A REPOSITORY FOR THE CURRENT ASIO DRIVERS FOR THE XDA-3.
We also expect to start a section on our forum, The Emotiva Lounge, dedicated to both the
XDA-3, and to various resources and sources for high quality music.
You can access the XDA-3 Resource Collection from the following link:
