But, the setting I've used earlier, 32bit 96Khz don't longer give me access to double or upsample. I have to select 96khz or higher 24bits to activate double or upsample. Is this kosher?

Also, when swapping between normal or upsample, the program crashes:

On the plus side, with this setting, the soundstage is HUGE! and the bass foundation is good but maybe not as good as u8's bass. (This is with upsample ON, without it's smaller in all dimensions and the bass is "rounder" and "kinder" without the same impact).

I therefore prefer the Upsample mode for 44/16 WAVs. But that's just me...ha, ha...  Happy

Actually, transients seem a little more "clear" and "crisp" than earlier versions? Any comment? Still in Upsample mode...

Re. the host error above:

Doesn't happen everytime, but also happens during playback, often after clicking next for the next song. Also sometimes happens without anybody doing anything.

One thing is for sure: Have not earlier heard this degree of transparency into the soundstage on earlier versions. That is a new high with this u12 version. Everything is so fu..... "clear"...  Grin

Seems everything about phase is ok, everything is in the right channel etc...he, he...seems "all the bits" is finally where they belong...  prankster

Wishing only for some more "warmth" in the bass and mid...if possible...more solidity (more bass...).

Btw., not hearing so much difference between 44 or 88Khz playback with u12. Everything is a little better with 88Khz, bass goes a little deeper etc. but not so huge a diff.

I agree. Except at times I prefer Double (to 88.2).

But wait!! Peter says this is supposed to suck:

I don't think Upsampling is good. It was at some stage (to the sense of "better"), but not anymore.

(Just giving you a hard time Peter.)  Cool

LydMekk, after you wake up, could you try to rephrase to dutch, so I can understand ? Tongue

This is not XX crashing, it is one of the sevices stopping. Did you never had that before ? Anyway, it's "normal". When this happens, click away the message and stop/start playing.
If it keeps on happening, change the priorities of the player.

If it can't be dealt with ... hmm ... then it must be you youreself ? hahaha but I don't expect that.
