"I bought and SMSL M8, which is a ESS9018"
LOL
Pretty funny Fred... I just got one also to play with.
Actually nice sounding. Does up to DSD128. The chip is the ES9018K2M which is a new scaled down chip targeted for mobile use etc. Specs are good though. It is actually the same chip being used in the Lampi Amber DSD DAC.
Fred can you please try DSD128 because I found a bug. My DAC flips channels when playing DSD vs PCM. I wonder if it just my DAC or a overall firmware bug.
thanks
Bob
Follow Ups:
but I am surprised by how good it sounds when warmed up. This will prompt me to try W8.1 Core on other PCs with only abut 5G install size. And this is with hyperfil still in.
There is a program pack called DAVICOM (DM9USB) in the Program file. I cannot find out much about it. Presumably it's the usb drivers. Do you know anything about it?
Have you tried disk imaging software and which one. Acronis 2013 caused a blank screen boot problem after installation.
Hi and very interesting plan again ... let us know about your results.
I think that this testing is extremely important
This is a complete OS ... not like Android, another "slim OS" option
And above all not the least support from audio dacs manufacturers for Android actually i do not understand why but that is ... )
I see many many people focusing on HW, while maybe they should focus OS.
This is quite revolutionary.
Maybe a cheap HW with a great OS outperforms a very expensive HW with a so so OS ? very interesting indeed.
Because i have already a lot of cheap HW ... to try.
The strange thing is the cost ... the HW with preloaded Win Bing costs less than a copy of 8.1 Core ? well ... this is strange.
Anyway ... thanks again sincerely for your very valuable advice.
I am curious to see this little pc ... very.P.S. i cannot find an iso file of win 8.1 core 64 bit ... does it exist ?
Kind regards,
bg

If you are talking about the X7 I do not have one, just an M8.
The driver with the M8 is a Xmos 2.23 and then there were a bunch of files for setting up Foobar.
I was suggesting of Acronis from a CD, and not installing it.
Thanks. If it is a firmware bug, maybe it can be fixed with a flash.
