Laptop Specifications To Play DSD Files

Hi Nathan,

I have been it touch with my dealer and he has spoken to ATC, they are sending a CDA MK 2 to the shop and I am going to take my laptop down which is set with the JRiver MC plus DSD 256 and Flac 192 files that stutter, this will at least indicate if it's the CDA or Laptop/JRiver MC problem, I will update this post as soon as I can.

I guess another possibility is that there is a problem with the USB driver that ATC supply.

GuySmileysMonkey:
Hi Steve.  Any progress on this yet?  I've just spoken with the importer who's been helping me. He's been very helpful but hasn't been able to reproduce the stuttering, concluding that there is nothing wrong with the DAC. This doesn't surprise me, but I'm still left with a DAC that isn't decoding hi-res files properly, whatever the cause. Very frustrating.

JimH:
Did you try changing the Power settings on the laptop?

Using another machine in place of the laptop might give you additional clues.

I didn't re-read the thread, but did you try playing a file from the hard drive of the laptop?

Hi GuySmileysMonkey,

Well took my laptop to my dealer, they connected it to an ATC SIA2 - 100 which they confirmed with ATC is the same DAC-Drivers_Electronics, anyway it started playing a DSD 256 file very well then the buffing started, so I tried a Flac 192k 24 Bit file and the same problem, we was not on internet these were files on the hard drive, anyway they phoned ATC and spoke to the technical guy, so he is going to come back to me next week, so no answers yet but at least it happened on another unit, I will update you when I get more info.

Steve
