Hi Friends,
Is there any way to know if a USB DAC is receiving the data stream unaltered?
I am asking this in context of my schiit usb dac, receiving data from
a) Ipad via camera connector kit
b) Android phone via app "USB Audio Player Pro". [note, I have made the setting 'bit perfect' as ON, so that the app does not do any kind of alteration]
c) via laptop having windows 10.
Music is sounding different in all cases. (a) and (b) are close and (c) is quite different. Seems in case of C windows is doing some changes before sending to DAC. (a) and (b) sound thinner compared to (c), which has lots of low-end/mid-bass. (b) sounds a little thinner compared to (a)
