  1. goldsdad Sorry for confusing your name with another! Thanks again for your help and excellent suggestions. I have since upgraded to 10.7 OS X (Lion), uninstalled and reinstalled the HiFace driver and switched to a 192K upsampling DAC. No improvement, too bad as I liked the HiFace, particularly with an AudioSector NOS DAC. To get the HiFace to work with the Mac without delay, I think I would need to install Windows on my iMac. I don't chose to do this at the moment, so I'll be selling the HiFace as well as the S/PDIF NOS DAC. They are listed on AudiogoN if anyone is interested. BTW, great looking Yellow Lab. I have a nearly 13 year old female at home.
  2. @johsti Tried this "use Audi Midi Setup to change the sample rate" and reduced the lag. Thanks for the suggestion
  3. @johsti Thank you for your reply. I switched DACs from a 24bit/96K to an NOS DAC and the delay was reduced to less a second or less. I have a 24/192K DAC arriving in the next couple of days but don't expect reduced delay compared to the NOS DAC. I'll try your suggestions to change the sample rates.
  4. Well that is disconcerting, given the reply from M2Tech. Too bad since I have it paired with an AudioSector NOS DAC with nice results.

  6. From my iMac, to DAC, via USB, the audio signal is delayed approx. 3 seconds vs the digital output (TOSLINK®-to-Optical Mini Plug Digital Cable) to the same DAC. I have an M2Tech HiFace plugged in the USB out from the iMac and to DAC using an S/PDIF cable. Contacted M2Tech regarding the audio delay and their reply "HiFace can not delay the output of the sound signal. The problem must be found on the player or the computer configuration used." If the issue is computer configuration, any suggestions to fix and remove delay?
