I believe the ADI-2 manual states it very clearly and already elaborated on the reason behind its current implementation choice (that is, let the click be there).32db54285b 046a3642f868ade330de8b5b07c9eb1f6c332279 22.19 MiB (23269544 Bytes) With that said I agree with any of those solutions just because DSD is a problematic format. so beethoven 5's bang-bang-bang-bang becomes (mute)-bang-bang-bang 2) the mute period eats some part of audio signal. the relay produce click sound which can be heard (not in the analog signal, but from the physical device). the analog switch may deteriorate the performance by introducing noise or distortion. IMHO this is an even worse solution than alternating the signal - 1) usually an analog switch / relay is needed to mute. so no change in data just hide the clicks. I think what is often done is to mute the output stage of the DAC during the transition. The input signal has that click, and the DAC altered the signal and removes it. If that is true, such DAC does not perform in a bit perfect way. This is RME's forum so I cannot recommend those products so I'll stop here. so other products (such as those cheap ChiFi products based on xmos and thesycon solutions) may work better for you. of course, you need your player and OS to support that mode as well.īy using DSD direct mode only, you are not gaining from the rich feature set offered by ADI-2 (such as dsp) anyway. because there will be no mode switch from pcm to dsd during pause. In your case, if you monitor the i/o screen and see the mode jump to pcm and back to dsd suddenly during the click, switching to a DAC that supports DSD mode by USB alt setting 3 (some call it native DSD) will fix your issue entirely. but it will cause other issues( such as latency) The problem I mentioned could be partially fixed by player software. The problem (dc offsets) MC mentioned is not solvable because it's the nature of the dsd. In my case, I know I will only play DSD, so if the DAC had an option like "Only accept DSD" and didn't handle PCM, would that make it possible (or easier to fix) to avoid clicks?
