Just received: M2Tech Hiface USB interface

Thats a shame. To be honest I don't understand why this site wouldn't want to review the modified HiFace. I would be interested in seeing such a review - perhaps against the original and also the next generation design from M2Tech. I would have thought others would be interested also - but perhaps not. Best Wishes Richard -

Ferenc, How does your new HiFace setup measure up to something like the Weiss 202 firewire alternative. Interested in any thoughts you have Regards. -

Getting a bit fed up with this - sometimes its quiet subtle - overtimes intrusive / annoying. Really wish M2Tech would get on a fix it! They seem to have lost interest :-/ -

On the back of my Mac Mini I have the M2tech HiFace and the Amarra iLok key. Nothing else. A couple of weeks ago I removed the iLok USB key - and the clicking remained. Will check again. I would be nice to get some sort of formal statement as to whether this is a know problem with know fix - or whether I'm just one of a few especial individuals :-/ Still remain very impressed with the hiFace - its staying even if the vinyl experience is a little too realistic Cheers Richard -
Can anyone recommend a high quality USB stick? Apparently they can sound different. Many Thanks Richard

Scot, Not sure this is what I'm seeing. No obvious clicks when I start / stop. More background clicks starting after a couple of tracks in. I'm not sure how one determines whether a unit is an early one with old microcode or a later version as there is no S/N Cheers Richard -

I have a Mac Mini running 10.6 with Amarra and HiFace drivers 1.03.2 - feeding a Lavry DA10. The clicking seems to being after listening to several tracks and then continues. Just like vinyl If I stop Amarra or iTunes and then restart, several more tracks tend to be clear. This leads me to suspect that the M2Tech folks still have a little more work to do on the driver. That said, awesome product. Richard -
I'm interested in any advice concerning the optimal interconnect approach - for around $500/600 - for connecting a Mac Mini to a Lavry DA10. I'm currently using a Toslink direct from Mac Mini to DAC. Options so far include would seem to include Konnekt 8 - Firewire (in) -> S/PDIF (out) 10.1 Trends Audio USB (in) -> AES (out) ? Any strong opinions on the optimal approach in this price range. Thanks Richard
