Listening Tips
Operating Care
For maximum signal fidelity in Windows, set
the DAC to at least 24-bit audio and adjust
digital volume slightly below 100% at your
computer. Only control volume from your
amplifier. This tip only applies to WDM
audio, and is inapplicable when operating
as an ASIO device.
Listen safely to conserve your hearing:

Set sampling rate to the highest integer
multiple of your music collection. For
example, use 176.4kHz for a collection
of 44.1k or 88.2k or 176.4kHz files. Use
192kHz for a collection of 48k or 96k or
192k audio files. Alternatively, you may
install the optional XMOS drivers in Win10
and use an ASIO capable app to achieve
bitperfect sampl
ing
rate changes.
Use gentle force when inserting or
removing cables.
To ensure an optimal noise floor,
always position audio equipment as far
away as possible from wireless devices.
