I tried the Bit Transparency check but it failed on all my music, including ALAC and AIFF files. But when I tried it on the supplied WAV files on the CD it worked fine from 44.1 to 192Khz
Does the test only work on the test files? Or since failed on my music doe it mean that all my music are not bit transparent?
Confused...

information. As per the manual:
"The DAC then checks whether it receives the special bit
pattern from the test file. This check is running
in the background of the DAC software"
The three lights blinking test would not work on regular music files. If the test files showed you as bit transparent then you are good to go.

Yep,
I've been using the int202 lately, and BT check only works with provided test files.
There is an automatic pattern detection along with the 202 series.
No chance it would work for music signal.
That said, how do you like your unit ?
