Hi Mario, it looks like that DAC should work for you. I think it's very strange that the info on their web page doesn't mention DoP, it just says native DSD. This is very confusing since there are two formats for getting DSD data to a DAC, one is DoP, the other is a format supported by ASIO frequently called "Native DSD". Since their web page says native DSD and doesn't mention DoP I thought it might not work. But further investigation shows that they ARE using DoP and not the ASIO native DSD format. Rather confusing on their part. Yep this situation is exactly the same sort of thing as using DTS contained in FLAC, the same restrictions apply, you change 1 bit and it doesn't work.
