You mean just the digital out of the SBT w/ EDO is better than the digital out quality with TT3.0 ? Today, I had an opportunity to do some critical listening with my system after some electrical contact cleaning. With this as reference, I will remove TT 3.0 and try with EDO.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Audiophilleo 2 + Pure Power not working with Squeezebox Touch
Ah yes sorry guys, EDO is installed, I have actually been using a standard AP2 borrowed from a friend and that has worked perfectly for a couple of weeks playing 192kHz stuff, but as it's time to give it back I bought my own but went the extra mile and got the Pure Power option just assuming that it would work which now of course is giving me these issues.. I'm about to try it again and will have a look at output settings in the SBT, fingers crossed, I will report back Cheers Dave Davey Wilo's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=58452 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97559 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch

Pure power shouldnt cause any problems.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Audiophilleo 2 + Pure Power not working with Squeezebox Touch
Thanks for the responses fella's I haven't had time to get back and try again as I've been flat out, I hope to get to it when I get in tonight after work, but it's good to see that people actually *do* have it working so that's a relief. Could you guys tell me your steps, did you connect it all up SBT Purepower Audiophilleo DAC (M51 in my case) and then go into the SBT settings and choose AP output??

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Audiophilleo 2 + Pure Power not working with Squeezebox Touch
Hi, I've currently got that setup working ( SBT(EDO) AP2+PP SPDIF-DAC) and it really helps sound quality for me. Do you have EDO properly installed and have you selected the AP2 from it's setup menu? When I first got my AP+PP it didn't start because the power cord between the two wasn't properly inserted. It needed an extra click on the AP end. Otherwise maybe reseting the whole SBT and reinstalling EDO might help?

Davey Wilo wrote: G'day fellas I have just found these forums searching for an answer to a problem that I'm hoping that you guys can help me fix, I've just taken delivery of an Audiophilleo 2 with the Pure Power battery option, I treated myself to it after borrowing a standard AP2 that I was extremely impressed with, I thought I would go the extra mile and pay for the PP option to remove the dirty USB feed but it looks like it may have bitten me in the ass Dave Does the standard AP2 work with the Touch? Is it something specific to just the battery option? I have heard that some other battery powered DACs have problems with the Touch. Whenever the DAC is plugged in the Touch tells it that it is active which means it is always running off the battery and never recharges. Do you have some other way to power it and see if it works that way? John S.
