Laptop Specifications To Play DSD Files

What does DSP Studio report? Something may be happening that you are not aware of.
Are your DSD and high sample rate PCM files on the same drive? Any networked drives involved.
What antivirus are you using? Disable anything other than Defended and use the thread at the top of this forum to set the exclusions for Media Center in Defender.
You should be able to play high sample rate PCM without any special drivers. So, I would delete the drivers and use Wasapi and see if that works. Wasapi will work for DoP but not for native DSD. Since the device plays DSD on IOS it probably accept DoP format.
Try both Wasapi and Direct Sound.
Are you using DoP for DSD? In either case (DoP or native) you are sending sample rates greater than 48 KHz. Since that works it seems like the problem is not just sample rate.
Is Volume Protection on or off?
Have your dealer try a Windows system.
Contact the manufacturer for suggestions. They seem to have that model working with JRiver.
By the way, ATC makes great speakers. I did not know they made this amp. Fine company.

Thank you kindly for these suggestions.
If my dealer can't reproduce the problem and sends the ATC SIA2-100 back to me with the issue unresolved I'll follow through with the steps you've outlined. In the meantime, he does intend testing with a Windows machine. I'll just wait while my newly purchased ATC SCM-11s and ATC C1 sub sit in contemplative silence, wondering why I've deserted them.
Yep - ATC make great speakers. Wish I was listening to them right now LOL..

Hi GuySmileysMonkey,
I use the RCA connections out of the Naim to RCA inputs of the CDA 2 MK2 so I think I'm using the Naim Dac to the pre amp in the ATC, I have posted the question of JRiver playing DSD 256 to the ATC forum to see if anyone uses this combination, I will update this post if anyone answers !

Thanks for that Steve. Much appreciated.
When you say the music is "buffering", what does this mean? Does it play, but with continual interruptions and stuttering of the sound, or does it not make any sound at all?
SKY1950:
Hi GuySmileysMonkey,
Yes it plays but stutters as though the file is too big to play smooth but the smaller files from ripped CD's play fine, no response from ATC as yet.

Awesome Donkey:
Posting a screenshot of the audio path when playing back a track likely would be very helpful.
