Thanks dsdreamer.yeah, unless someone makes a compelling case
otherwise, I'll just do nothing. I enjoy the Rega a great deal and
unless something is going to make a very noticeable difference at
modest additional cost, I don't see that it's really worthwhile to
change anything.

Thank you both. In light of your commenets, I did a bit of research on
the Rega dac. It seems that its USB interface only supports up to 16
bit/48khz files.
While I don't have a huge amount of 24 bit/88/96khz files, I have
enough that I don't think I would sacrifice those in order to make the
The main advantage of the Asynch USB connection is the elimination of
clock jitter.
Basically, rather than having to recover a clock signal from the signal
sent by the SBT to the DAC (Push), the asynch USB approach allows the
DAC to control when it receives information (Pull).
SBTs are fairly go

I got a Nad M51 2.0 usb, can I be a tester ?
I will need a external high speed hub right, what do you suggest ?

Yes it should alter as it's a feedback mechanism - this is what

Correct, Touch has it's own well regarded DAC for analog output.
BUT, even an analog input into a digital AVR (like you are asking
about) will likely result in another DAC conversion in the AVR.
Digital file to Touch, Touch does DAC, analog out to AVR, AVR
reconverts analog back to digital, AVR
Thanks Triode for quick response
I don't have a high speed usb hub, but will try tomorrow for sure

I was looking for a receiver a HK 3390 or the HK 3490. I wanted to hook
up:
recordplayer, tv(audio),cd player/dvdplayer, htpc and a touch.
I thought I had to go for the 3490 because of the buildin DAC and 2
digital inputs, but I just saw a topic here someone mentioned the touch
had a good DAC. I'

No high speed usb hub, tried hires 96000 hz now and is playing fine, no
hickups
Only resetted the
Kernel #5 and plugin 0.7 play fine with the Eximus DP1. Occasionally I
get dropouts for a couple of seconds but only with 192kHz files, though
the touch is connected to my NAS via ethernet. All other material plays
flawless.

Looking at all the excitement over Triode's work with asynchronous USB
stuff, can someone explain to all of us numpties if asynch USB is
somehow "better" than, for instance, using a "regular" dac's connection
to the Touch via coax or toslink?
For instance, my Rega dac has a USB input. If the eff

If you don't update LMS on the computer you shouldn't get update

Triode, what exactly do you mean by reset the output device?

One tip storage must be avaible to LMS while LMS is running .
So NAS must be on when LMS is running and connected otherwise LMS may
think that there is no music folder and dump the database require that
you enter the location again and rescan .
