I purchased an AudioEngine D1 for headphone listening and tried it via USB using kernel 3. Firstly, without a hub I heard clicks every 60 seconds or so. So I grabbed a USB2.0 powered hub I had lying around and placed that in circuit. Clicks were gone, and I could observe the adaptive momentary sample rate going above and below 44.1 depending on the buffer fullness.
AudioEngine D1 is sounding good on its initial outing, via its RCA outputs into my main rig. Sound is rather pure and is notable for its image specificity, but otherwise does not draw attention to itself. Anyway, another victory for adaptive USB audio from the Touch. Thanks again to Triode. I hope he will keep his unofficial applets available for the future. They are starting to become indispensable! -- dsdreamer ---------------------- "Dreamer, easy in the chair that really fits you..." ------------------------------------------------------------------------ dsdreamer's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12588 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=93310 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
