Oh yeah we tried/done updating the firmware via usb and usb blaster after the first time happened, and yes Ive tried difference source its the same issue.
From what I know it counts under warranty so the good news it I wouldnt need to spend money, just time.
Tried that aswell, with different headphone and spare cable i have again sound only count out when im using the dac at Pre-amp mode, headphones are completely fine
I am thinking about buying an afterdark external clock with only 1, 75 ohm bnc clock output
If I run the 75 ohm clock out signal from the afterdark in the 75 ohm clock input on the DI24HE can I send the clock signal from the Afterdark through the DI24HE 75 ohm and 50 ohm clock outputs to my Etherregen and R7HEmk3 DAC?
I would be very interested in your take on Iris vs DI24HE. I’m considering some ddc or usb isolator but still not convinced which one. I leaned towards Iris to pair it with Pontus II.
Do you consider it significant upgrade? It’s interesting how such DDC change can have that impact.
Also, does it still make sense to go for HE version if the DDC will be powered through Puritan PSM156 conditioner? It’s not clear to me what kind of benefit the HE version could bring in this case. The power entered to the ddc shall be already filtered and “clean”.

Personally, I wouldn't consider it as a very significant change but I'm surprised with the positive improvements and definitely satisfied with the purchase.
However, I afraid I cannot answer the pairing with Pontus II as I dont have the DAC. I'm sure there's few review on the Iris-Pontus II pairing.

You certainly can but the clock out of the di24he won't be quite as good (jitter will be added) , especially if your afterdark is a top version. For the regen, it won't matter. But the dac would perform better with the clock out.

Thank you tried it last night Afterdark Emperor Double Crown feeding DI24HE. DI24 outputs Afterdark clock input to Etherregen and R7HE.
A huge upgrade, gorgeous in fact.
I will try comparing the afterdark clock output direct into DAC and the DI internal clock feeding the Etherregen over the next day or 2 to current setup.
I will struggle not to get another Afterdark for bedroom system.
Thank goodness I cant add an external clock to my Grimm MU1 in main listening room

Afterdark clock sounds way better into DI24he with di24 sending clock out from afterdark to R7He dac and switch than afterdark feeding dac and Di feeding clock outputs from Di to network switch

I had the opposite experience with my top of the line Geisemann Eva. It only makes sense. But the lower grades can possibly benefit from noise reduction.

I think the Afterdark Geisemann Emperor double crown has pretty good specs -143db phase noise at 10hz. I wonder how much difference that 4 db less noise makes

I'm using the following setup: Lumin U2 music server => USB to Singxer SU1 DDC => Holo May KTE DAC => Blue Hawaii Special Edition headamp => Stax SR-X9000 headphone.
I'm wondering upgrade the SU6 to the DI24HE. Have any tried the DI24HE with the May DAC?
I have no experience with May DAC, but had SU1 and then improvement with SU6. Went from Denafrips Terminator with SU6 To Audio GD R7 HE Mk2 with SU6. Sound was fine, then bought DI20HE- NO contest everything opened up. Sold SU6. With over 1000hours I thought sound couldn’t improve with DI20HE. Was nervous about buying DI24HE.
Now with 300-400 hours on DI24HE sound is sublime. Even more open sound with better image placement. Can’t wait to get more hours on DI24HE!
What is the I2S like on the DI-24HE? I am getting great results from the Spdif Coaxial output into MSCaler. Waiting on a cable to try the I2S output going into the Laiv dac I2S.
Hoping for similar results as the Spdif output.
Thanks
