If the dac is a usb audio class 2 device and connects to the Touch at "high" speed then you don't need a hub. If however it is a usb audio class 1 async dac and connects at "full" speed then you need a hub. This is due to what appears to be a limitation of the hardware in the Touch for the case of usb1 connected devices. Easy way to know is to connect the dac and select it, then return to the digital output page and select the dac again, this displays an info page about the dac and at the top line it will says whether it is high or full speed. The app should read this internally and only ask you about the no hub option and display a warning about needing a hub if it sees "full" speed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Triode's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=94512 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
