Question-I have the Aries as well-stellar unit-best I have heard digital in my system-my question is if you are using aes out to dac then how are you listening to Dsd files if aes is limited to 192 on the Aries-would you not have to be using the usb out and not aes or spdif outputs-Unless both can be used simultaneously? Curious as to how you are listening to dsd via aes through the Aries?

hi gsb,
I am indeed using the USB output for anything like DSD and DXD (high res PCM at 32 bits). It is very rare that I use that output mode though.
Most of my music is 192 or under so I use the AES output for that.
Let me know if that clears it up.
So do you have both outputs wired and connected at same time or do you disconnect and change over to other output.
I have to switch the outputs in the iPad app Lightning DS to one or the other, it can't do both as far as I understand at the same time.

Yup that's what I do but did not realize I could leave both physically connected and just switch in the Lightning app-thanks!
Yep, in settings, tap your Aries device name, if you have them both plugged in you can select one or the other. I believe that should work if your DAC is active on both at the same time. If not you have to switch the DAC to USB then switch it in the app right after though, an extra step but you could have them both plugged in. Some DACs won't work that way unless you switch the DAC to USB first, then change it to USB in the app.
Good listening :)
Works like a charm and have them both plugged in-just switch them in/out in the Lightning app-thanks and good listening!
