Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Touch with EDO does not remember output setting

Good Point Garym. All my files are 16 bit CD/rips. On top of that the
DAC in the SBT Is very good.Add to this I currently have a small
listening room, so dont need Music too loud.The weakest link in my Hifi
chain is my speakers (Mission 751) Circa 1993, But they will do for
now...

I was even thinking of buying a Transporter, but that may be a Bit OTT
for my Set up.When I think what I paid for my SBTs (I Have 3 now). One
in use (£ 114) Second in storage(£ 130). third in storage (£280-still
sealed) ..its kinda creeping upto the price of a S/h Transporter. Iam
sure the DACS better in that In the transporter , but I would miss the
Colour screen in the SBT!

Hi Daleyb. I'm pleased you're enjoying the squeezebox ecosystem and
ripping with dbpa. It certainly changed my interaction with my music. 
My advice is to not go too far down into the rabbit hole of "improving"
sound quality.  First, don't believe everything you read. Most things
you'll read about power supplies, DACs, etc. will be audiophool
nonsense.  In the case of your situation, I would be surprised if the
difference you are hearing is not that your CD player is a bit "hotter"
in terms of output than the SB Touch w/internal DAC. So that increased
volume (even tiny amount) gives the listener the idea that the louder
source is "better".

Then again, it's only money and a hobby, so if you feel better with a
different DAC, then go for  it.  I use an older Benchmark DAC I attached
to a Touch in one location (connected via S/PDIF  cable--I don't use the
EDO app to produce USB output and I don't have any files that are > than
24/96, in fact most are 16/44.1 CD rips).  I mostly like the Benchmark
DAC over the Touch internal DAC because I can use balanced analog
outputs from the Benchmark (and I had the Benchmark well before getting
a squeezebox).

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Touch with EDO does not remember output setting

2017-06-06 Thread daleyb

Please accept my apologies for maybe not quite understanding. When I
connected a new REGA DAC to my SBT to my ears there was no real Sound
difference. Please note, there was NO EDO on SBT (I was pretty new to
the SBT World then, so never knew such a thing existed at the time..)
and used coax cable to my amp. When folk on here are saying there using
USB on here is that the usb connection on the SBT..??

again forgive me if Iam wrong, but I always thought the USB on the SBT
was just for USB mem. Stick or H/drive upto a certain amount of GBs or
MBs only. 

I just cant help thinking I should of kept the rega DAC (the lastest
model) and maybe experimented a bit more  !

it sounded amazing with my CD player...But disappointing with my SBT and
going back to CD was no option for me (having ripped so many CDs) and
accessing ALL my music On my SBT.

I had the same after upgrading my Classé CP-800 with the v2 digital

found out that putting a USB hub between the Touch and my CP-800
resolved the issue and I now enjoy this duo since several year trouble

What I did was connect the Mojo to SBT via USB (EDO) and then connect
the 3.5mm cable (headphone output) to Mojo and other RCA ends to my Sure
Electronics Digital Amplifier (no volume). 

I will try yours tonight :)

So you are basically relying on the mojo to behave as a pre-amp, because
your "amp" has no volume control so is presumably a fixed gain power
amp. Given that the volume control on the mojo has no remote control
capability I would do the following:

Turn SBT vol all the way down
Set mojo to "line" level output via magic button sequence
Use SBT volume control to control sound level.

If you find you can't get to even 30% vol on SBT without it being too
loud you may need to lower the mojo volume setting further. But note
that both these devices use digital volume controls. The mojo has a
higher resolution digital volume control than the SBT, but you still may
lose resolution at low volumes on either, depending on the gain of your
power amp.

Well Celo, this is how it works when I use an iFi Nano dac.

I use the headphone output to my PRE amplifier.

The output is set to 100%, volume knob turned completely right (this is
on the mfg's advice as it is essentially a passive pre-amp).

Doing this effectively takes it out of the equation.

I assume that the amplifier you are using (info would be nice) is a
power amplifier. 

The headphone output on the Mojo could then be used as a a pre
amplifier.

You need to check your specs, as the volume output could be very low,
depending o the sensitivity of the power amp you are feeding it into.

Better still, contact Chord with full information of the equipment you
are using and ask their advice. They should be able to advise you if the
headphone output is sufficient or that you need to use the line ouput
setting. (I'm guessing that if you choose the latter then a pre-amp
would be required).

When asking these type of questions it is important to give as much
information and detail as possible.

Since I have not used an amp/DAC before I am trying to figure it out how
to connect. Currently, I connected the Mojo via USB to SBT (EDO).

Yes, (@Man in a van), I connect the 3.5mm cable to the headphone output
on the Mojo and connect the RCA ends to my amp (no volume on the amp).
So, no need to use line out mode (I assume).

As per my comment in the new thread, note that full output level is
nearly 4.8V on the mojo, so this might totally blow your amp out the
water. Do not default to 100% anything..

Do you have any way of confirming that EDO is capable of driving the
mojo in asynchronous mode? Plain old synch USB does not have the same
sonic advantages as asynchronous and you may as well just use a
perfectly working optical or coaxial spdif cable.

Hi celo, here's my 2 bits

Install EDO on the SBTouch with Mojo connected by USB.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1UnnpylzUvFW3oi0ip5ghpuWFfDVcufKCn8k54uhqYKQ/edit#gid=0


Connect Mojo to amp.

I'm guessing a bit now, but from my experience with an iFi Nano dac, set
the volume on the Mojo to max.

In LMS on the player page in Settings set the volume to Variable output
as you will be controlling this with your iphone.

Controlling the volume in this manner can be a bit risky, make sure you
turn down the volume before switching off.

Its safer to control the volume with a pre-amp and have both outputs on
the Mojo and SBT set to 100%.

Maybe/maybe not, switch off the charger when playing music.

Make sure the volume in LMS is really low before playing any music for
the first time.

If you can adjust the digital amp volume I would suggest you set it to
the max you are likely to use (use the variable control on your 'phone)
and then back it off a bit and leave it at that setting. This will give
you some headroom for when you start everything at full blast :p;):D.

Keep safe, it's dangerous out there:cool:

Logitech Server running on iMac
Control the music via Logitech iPhone App
Mojo will be connected at all times to Apple 1A charger

How should I control volume? How should I set the volume on the SBT?
Should I use the Mojo for volume control?

Any recommendations on how I will be connecting and using it?

Thanks!

The only change to the updated EDO and kernel installer applets is the
URLs for the kernel downloads.

Bert, there is now an update to versio 0.8 EDO kindly provided by
ralphy.

Why not do the update and see if this fixes the problem. 

It is also again to try different kernel versions

The point about a usb hub was that sometimes the SBT seemed to prefer to
connect to a hub (passive in your case) and then via the hub to the dac,
worth a try if you have a passive usb2 hub. You would still be using the
dac as designed.

The Chord Mojo is self powered and does not need a hub. It works with an
optical connection that I have now installed but the Mojo is disigned as
a asynchronos USB dac and I would prefer to use it as such.

I still have not solved the problem.

Just trying to see if it works with another connection ;)

On the SBT do you have the volume set to 100%?.

Maybe try to connect the DAC to the SBT via a USB hub? (powered and/or
unpowered).

Try this, when you switch off, unplug the dac and re-plug it after you
switch on the SBT.

Ronnie,

Thanks for your reply, I will try. However I prefer the USB output, the
DAC is realy designed to use it an sounds wonderfull using USB.

Kind regards,

Hi Bert, if you connect the SBT to the Dac with  a digital cable (either
coax or optical) and select digital as the output,  what happens?

Is there sound?

Groetjes,

[SlimDevices: Touch] Touch with EDO does not remember output setting

2016-06-22 Thread BertdeJong

I have an Chord Mojo attached to my Touch using EDO and USB. It works
(and sounds) wonderfull. However, if I switch both off and on again the
Touch does not seem to rember the audio out setting. A can see the file
playing but there is no sound through the DAC, so I am asuming it has
switched back to analog. Can this be fixed?
