XM5 is always powered by battery, it doesn't have option to run only on USB power. You can turn off charging when using it as USB DAC, that can help with the battery health long term.

Yes, it supports 32/768. On Windows, just run it in any software capable of such output and it will run fine with our drivers. We use Foobar 2000 for such playback. (It runs 768 kHz even with basic Wasapi output) This is our most recent USB Driver for UA line...

Ok, so for the charging: When you set the charging %, you should have the charger already connected. Once it chargers to 100%, it will turn off charging and only start charging when it reaches the set %. If you disconnect and reconnect charger, it will start charging until it reaches 100%...

665 so far had no firmware update. I found out we have no chargers for M30 in the office, so I can't test it right now :( I will report it to engineers to check on this.

MCD1.3 offers I2S output, with our special 10 mode system. For USB out, you would have to look at our ET3.
