ufoerp Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 I have just bought one Ayre QB-9 DSD as my new DAC and love this sound style! I have tried Jriver MC 20 and foobar 1.26 and have faced same issue for playing DSD ISO file. As I play such over 96hz file, I have already installed the Thesycon driver 1.26version from Ayre link. In foobar or Jriver output, i have chosen to output with "TUSBaudio ASIO diver", but there is no sound coming out. if i choose foo_dsd_asio in foobar output, i could successfully play the DSD64 file through Dop mode and QB-9 will show 64. I could also use WASAPI output to play DSD64 frpm Jriver MC. But I really want to use the Ayre official Thesycon driver to play DSD file, could someone help me? Many thanks! Jeff Link to comment
beetlemania Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 There is a wealth of set-up info on the Ayre website I use WASAPI with JRMC 18, I think I was also using WASAPI before I switched away from foobar2000.

ufoerp Posted January 1, 2015 Author Share Posted January 1, 2015 Here's how I have mine set-up on Tools>Options>Audio>Bitstreaming>Custom [ATTACH=CONFIG]16134[/ATTACH] Do you think we could use the official USB driver 1.26 to play DSD64 file? Link to comment
ufoerp Posted January 11, 2015 Author Share Posted January 11, 2015 any other people have this official USB driver issue of Ayre QB9? Link to comment
vjbelle Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 I also have a new QB9 DSD and use the same setup as Beetlemania. I get no sound unless I use the Ayer USB Wasapi interface. This interface doesn't even show up unless the Ayer is physically connected. So... no matter what I believe that the Thyson driver is being used just with an alternate interface.

vjbelle Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 I did get the Asio interface to work. There is a device setting for that interface and once that menu is displayed there is a tools area on the lower right hand side. Make sure that Dsd under Dop is checked. Also make sure that under the main Audio settings that Bitstreaming for DSD is checked and it should work..... at least mine does. Victor Link to comment

Victor thanks for your feedback and seems like the official driver is not useful for DSD file play. Have you tried foobar? Link to comment
vjbelle Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 Please read my second post..... The Asio driver does work for DSD playback. Victor Link to comment
ufoerp Posted January 12, 2015 Author Share Posted January 12, 2015 Please read my second post..... The Asio driver does work for DSD playback. Victor Yes, actually i have already read it. Thanks. But my question is about output in foobar. In foobar: 1.could you use wasapi output to play DSD? 2.could you use TUSBaudio ouput in foobar for DSD play? 3. any suggestion to adjust the official driver setup? Link to comment
vjbelle Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 Sorry.... Your OP listed two players and my response is for Jriver MC20 which works fine with the Asio Driver for DSD playback. I have no experience with Foobar. Victor Link to comment

ufoerp Posted January 27, 2015 Author Share Posted January 27, 2015 anyone uses the official USB driver from Ayre 1.26 version? any comment on this driver and sound quality? Thanks. Link to comment
msr Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 I own the old Ayre qb-9 DAC (96/24, not dsd). I am looking for the Windows driver for it, since the one in Ayre's website is of no use to my dac. Any help is very welcome! Marcelo Link to comment
vladimirb0b Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 No experience with that dac, but if you can't find it try ASIO4ALL, should work with different players Or WASAPI or ASIO in foobar Link to comment
msr Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 I´ve tried ASIO4ALL, but didn´t work very well, with many audio dropouts. Thanks anyway. Link to comment
vladimirb0b Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 Increased buffer size in player *and* in ASIO4ALL control panel? And you might try https://sourceforge.net/projects/foobar2000-wasap2-output/ Link to comment
