Any chance of adding the McIntosh C52 which supports DSD256? I can currently do DSD128 with my USBridge.

@Mike_Ormerod
as per the results this dac not supports DSD native, only supports DoP mode, max DSD128 in DoP mode.

Hi @rahulkc_s,

Are you replying to me or @Mike_Ormerod?

I double checked my Arcam irDAC-II and I understand it will do DSD128 although I am not sure whether the Digione will.

rahulkc_s · May 23, 2019, 9:27am

@tahsu
Digione supports up to DSD64 in DoP mode , did you verified DSD64 ?

tahsu · May 23, 2019, 9:36am

Hi @rahulkc_s,

Thanks for the quick reply - I had set the Digione and DAC up as you suggested however when I press play, I only get silence unfortunately.

Mike_Ormerod · May 23, 2019, 11:06am

Ok, Thanks for checking.

A post was split to a new topic: USB DAC can’t be selected in dietpi-config

RobOK · June 6, 2019, 1:53am

Have not read the whole thread…

Any way to turn off the bright LED lights?
When will aluminum cases be back in stock?

Rob.

Stef_Dahl · June 13, 2019, 6:37pm

Somebody have make some optimisation like these :
CPU on Powersave / 720 min/max
All Roon processes on core 0&1.
All others on 2&3.
Avec DietPi-Process_tool -> cores 0 & 1 in SCHED_RR schedule policy (real time)

tahsu · July 7, 2019, 12:56pm

I was in the allo launcher today and noticed an update available to take my USBridge up to V6.25.3. However once I go in via putty and start the update it hangs part way through. Saying something like the Desired setting in dietpi already set. Does anyone else have this issue? Any thoughts @Dan_Knight?

Edit - I managed to go back to a back-up thankfully and its working again. Although this did involve moving kit to do a manual reboot. Annoying.

Scott_Houston · July 8, 2019, 9:05am

Lifesaver. Thanks.

RobOK · September 6, 2019, 2:14pm

Is Allo USBridge still a product? Can I get an aluminum case for it? I have been going to the site periodically and it is always out of stock.

Thanks,
Rob.

Jan_Willem · September 6, 2019, 3:02pm

Sadly the alu case isn’t produced anymore. Not sure about the USBridge itself. Ask Allo?

Steve_Horne · September 6, 2019, 5:39pm

New version of USBridge will be available in 2-3 weeks.

RobOK · September 6, 2019, 5:56pm

Seems to be missing from their website which was why I asked…

Jan_Willem · September 6, 2019, 7:08pm

@Steve_Horne Source? (Cannot find info about it at allo.com)

Steve_Horne · September 6, 2019, 7:51pm

Source is an email I received after inquiring at sales@allo.com

Jan_Willem · September 6, 2019, 8:10pm

@Steve_Horne Good news!
Hope they will pick up production of these alu-boxes again. I have one but a colleague really wants one…
