FrankMA Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 New owner of a MKII. Running MKII>Phasure Lush>PS Direcstream Jr Been running since last Fri. Started out playing some songs via USB and once Roon Radio kicked in the songs started skipping (no output, jumps from song to song at .5 sec intervals continuously). Innuos support had this comment: I believe this is an issue that's been encountered a couple of times, Roon does something wrong when its 'radio' feature kicks in, which is basically their autoplay function of similar/related music once you reach the end of the album you were listening. All reported instances of this have been solved by simply turning this feature off. Shut off Roon Radio. Go into either tracks/Album/Artist and shuffle: Same condition. Via Ethernet (Streamer port to my DAC or via network) in any mode I have no issues. Have rebooted the MKII and my DAC numerous times. The only way to stop the USB skipping is to reboot the DAC. When I go to bed it is running. When I wake up it's skipping. Same when I leave for work. Day after day. Consequently I cannot even burn in the unit via USB (my current preferred output). Has anyone seen this condition? If yes have you found a fix?

FrankMA Posted August 17, 2018 Author Share Posted August 17, 2018 Really shocked with all the smart people on this board no one has heard of this or has any ideas I am going to try to eliminate the USB cable as a source of the problem. Innuos suggests testing with a cheap USB printer cable and trying the data port Ultimately, there is a break-up/disruption occurring in the USB connection. There are number of steps that can be taken in a process of elimination to identify the soruce, but the first thing i would suggest trying is a different USB lead. There's more than a few cables out there that can disrupt the 5v required to work properly, which especially becomes an issue over some longer cable lengths. You can also try connecting to the USB 3.0 'Backup' socket on the server, this will also work for audio and carries a higher miliamp output which might help MAIN: Sonore Optical Module Deluxe/Farad Super 3 (7v) > Uptone EtherRegen/Farad Super 3(9v)/AfterDark Emperor Signature/Farad Super 3 (12v) > Innuos Zenith MKII SE (ER A) > ER (B) > Meitner MA-3 DAC > Ayre K-5xe MP Preamplifier > Ayre VX-5 Twenty Amplifier > Vandersteen Quatro Woods POWER: AQ Niagara 5000 > AQ (Hurricane)/Triode Wire Labs/Shunyata Python/Nordost Blue Heaven/Audience AU24 SE/Audio Sensibilities Sig Silver CABLING: Silversmith Audio Fidelium Speaker/Sablon Pantela Reserva 2020 Lan/Ghent JSSG360 Cat 6/AQ Earth & Pegasus/Aurelis Deuland 75ohm ISOLATION: Stillpoints/Symposium/IsoAcoustics/Herbie's/PS Audio Powerbase Link to comment

Innuos suggests testing with a cheap USB printer cable and trying the data port I've tried audiophile cables in the past (not any more) - you don't know if it complies with USB 2.0 spec or not, so you may have compatibility issues, depending on source and/or USB DAC. So the advice to try a spec printer cable is always good one. Link to comment

austinpop Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 No issues here with Lush cables on my setup with Zenith SE. Is your music (Roon Storage location) local - ie on the Zenith, or on the network? If the latter, I’d reboot everything upstream to your ISP input. Your modem, router, and any switches in the path to the Zenith. You may just have a bad cable. It does happen. My Audio Setup Link to comment

BigAlMc Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 @FrankMA, As we discussed on PM I have suffered the same issue and our setups are very similar as we have Zenith, Directstream and Lush in common. FWIW I don't think it's the Lush but experimenting with another cable is definitely a good idea to try and rule it out. Meantime I've taken your advice from Innuos and disabled Roon radio. Will see if the skipping happens again and report back. Also it's definitely Roon related because I've never experienced it using the Zeniths LMS player but frequently get it with Roon.

Thanks in advance Hi Frank Suggestion for trying to test whether it is Roon radio or not. Let's both disable radio and do our best to line up many long albums when we're not listening to music. That way we should be able to see if the music is still playing the next day or if skipping has kicked in.

I'm slightly confused by your description as you appear to be changing more than one factor at a time. Also, how do you tell from history whether the track skipped or played? My test of radio off and Roon playing all night was promising but inconclusive. No skipping occurred but I'll repeat for the next couple of days and see.

The only condition where this happens is the MKII DAC USB output with the Lush. Every other combination is fine When it skips the track doesn't actually play or listed in the history. It cycles through songs at a very fast clip.

Peter has always stated that the Lush is not to USB spec. Perhaps that contributes to the musicality so many enjoy. @FrankMA - yeah in that case it does start to look like the Lush isn't working for you. The Lush being the culprit in my skipping was not the answer I was hoping for as I've just ordered two of Peter's latest cables - the Lush^2 as these incorporate the JSSG360 techniques being explored over on the Novel Way thread. Up to you if you want to return the cable but perhaps check with Peter whether the Lush^2 might resolve your issue (he commented that spec is different to the Lush) to see if a trade is possible and avoids you losing all the, er, Lushness!

BigAlMc Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 @PeterSt, Hi Peter, Since you're here ? Not sure if you read this thread but that's two users, the Op and myself experienced the same issue with Innuos Zenith server, Lush and PS Audio Direcstream DAC where USB on Roon starts skipping tracks and then won't play again until the DAC has been switched off and on again. Curiously I don't get the same issue using the Zenith LMS player. So Roon & Lush seems the combo that struggle with this specific server and DAC. Any thoughts on what might be going on? Could the Lush be the source of the issue?

PeterSt Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 @FrankMA, What you're experiencing there is 100% certainly a case of too much resistance over the end to end trajectory from sender to receiver (and back btw). Although I wouldn't care less about you returning the Lush because it does not work for you, I would care much more for a new one which 99% sure also won't work. Offering money back, also not a problem, but again it doesn't help you really. I think if you look back on your trials, you can already see it is not 100% easy to blame the cable alone. Thus, it is the combination. This, btw, is not related to the specs of the cable but to how the bandwidth of the spec plays a role here and how many so-called on spec cables wouldn't work either. Easy for me to say and impossible for me to prove, but say that I tried a few, always requiring the more close to full bandwidth of the USB2 spec to begin with (because 32/768). Your Lush has a length of 100cm. We provide them up to 300cm for a reason - indeed the (bandwidth of) the spec does not allow for more. So all clear there. Problem is, nobody anywhere suffers from such a problem. No-where. Still the culprit is known - as I said, too much resistance. If this doesn't happen in your target (say the DAC) then it is the source (like a PC). For the PC this is usually solvable by means of using an other USB port (I saw the reference to the high powered port but that is not helpful - I mean, the fact that it is powered is not). Best option would be using a front port vs a back one, not knowing (or looking at) whether this is possible to begin with. When the resistance is too high, eventually the back and forth "communication" for the speed control (how many USB packets must be sent per time unit) can't catch up and (it may be seen as) the buffer with data runs empty. This is also how it is data related and how your "radio" me show the exhibit, or, that just runs longer in a row than a CD (so to speak). The less the resistance being too high, the linger it takes for the buffer runs empty (it is not really a buffer, which I of course must say with mansr around who really knows everything). 5 minutes ago, BigAlMc said: Any thoughts on what might be going on? Could the Lush be the source of the issue? It can be part of it, yes. But 50% chance you run into the same with other USB cables, as long as they are more expensive (really so). Obviously, when I just said that no-body has such an issue, while now two occur with a same device, we must wonder. Frank, if you return it, and you ask me to send you a new one, the least what will happen is that we make a Lush^2 of it. This is already for the bad luck of just ordering the Lush^1 because the Lush^2 did not exist yet. But I rather find the culprit, and having two examples at hand, this should be doable. Plus, as I understand, Alan could be very helpful because of him experiencing the same issue but just differently. Start with other ports if possible ? Do you have an Uptone Regen at hand ? (or an Intona) ... just for testing ...

I sold my ISO Regen but I get the same issue as Frank despite having a TX-USBultra in the path. Lush > TX-USBultra > Sablon > Directstream. Frank - might be worth holding off to see if the Lush^2 resolves skipping on my system. Might also be worth trying other cables. You're in the US, right? I have a Curious and an Audioquest carbon kicking around. I could test them to try to prove/disprove the Lush culpability.
