Hi Miska. Here https://audiobyte.net/products/hydra-z you have data on the bottom. If you need something more let me know I can contact maker. Best regards, Marcin

Hi Miska. I just purchased Audiobyte Hydra Z usb converter and I can't play native dsd through it. Could you add kernel patch to support native DSD for this converter ?

Hi Miska, I was hoping to save some money on computing power for 48k512. But I see there are some limitations also due to processing power for conversion. I didn't had problem to convert with poly-sinc-xtr-2s it started fast on i5-7200u. For poly-sinc-xtr it needed like 20min just to start the process. I think all depend on the price now and discount for users of consumer version. I would like to go back to T version of i7 processor on my fanless machine.

Hey tboooe, I also started to test NAA solutions. A day ago I assembled RPi 3 with digione. Why digione and not usbridge ? Well because drivers for any kind of usb under linux based systems make it sound without life. With digione It's different. As stand alone unit it's just good for the money. But as NAA I have problem now what I like more 48x512 or 192k from digione. What is Your opinion about LPS on HQPlayer control machine that feed signal to NAA ?

Ok I copied https://www.dll4free.com/qwave.dll.html 10.0.14393.0 version to System folder and it started. It didn't asked for more files.

Hi tboooe, I had no problem of going back to previous version of HQP. I was checking if it's easy way of adding Quality Windows Audio Video Experience feature from powershell. But from what I was reading it's not an easy task in core version. I didn't tried yet to push only dll file but from my previous experience with HQP that will not do because it probably ask for some other files. I will give it a try and report feedback.

Hi Miska, What is the reason of adding to HQPlayer Quality Windows Audio Video Experience ? Im having in new version on Windows 2016 Server qwave.dll missing when I want to start Hqplayer.

Thanks mate. That's what I've been looking for. 8700k is my next move but first I'm waiting for a mobos with cheaper bridges. They are on the horizon so in the next few months that will be on my purchase list. For now I see that hdplex h5 will be the one to buy.

Kal thanks for Your quick response. As I can see some photos on Stereophile Your box include fan for better air circulation inside. That might be a big help getting some lower temp. I want to avoid any fans in my build. Looking for solution as I'm really addicted to 48k x512 . I had previously 6700k that was running stock on 1V. This 7700k doesn't wan't to go stable lower than 1,2V and this 0,2V increase is critical for overall temp on cpu.

As I needed to lift voltage on my 7700k due to lag problems I have a question regarding fanless case because my FC8 from streacom doesn't fit my needs anymore. CPU gets too hot in long auditions so I think about HDPLEX. Someone use it with such powerfull processor with DSD512 upsampling here ? Or maybe bigger FC10 will be sufficient for such heater ?

Just tested some previous versions and works good on 3.19.1. Above that I have those pauses.

Hi Miska. Just updated today to 3.20.1 from 3.18.2 and I have problem with some wierd pauses non stop. Upsample to 48k x512.

Hi Miska, Just to report I tested new 3.182 version and it works on my upgraded CPU from 6700k to 7700k.

Good idea. I forgot I can overclock 6700k to 7700k clock just for test if it will be enough.

Thanks for the info. I'm using 6700k. Could someone report that it works for him on 7700k ?
