iFi's xDSD (official) - Award winning.

Hello @AMR/iFi audio

 

Can you tell us about DoP support for this unit?  Since it's capable of 768kHz, DoP256 should be supported, yes?

 

Thanks in advance

It is, yes. xDSD handles DSD up to 512 if firmware 5.2 (non-MQA) is loaded. 

 

Thanks for the response, but this is confusing.  To the best of my knowledge, no iFI products are capable of DoP512 as this requires a PCM rate of 1411200 Hz.  Also, the "A" version of the firmware (like 5.2A) is what enabled DoP256.

 

I've noticed that the 5.2A firmware is no longer available for download (5.1A is available).  What happened to the "A" version of "Limoncello"?

@AMR/iFi audio, I found 5.2A firmware on the xDSD download page.  It's missing from the iDAC2 download page.
