Native DSD playback with white noise on FIIO X7?
I have a FIIO X7 (orignal, not mk2 if it matters) and I'm currently evaluating Neutron since it's come highly recommended.
I have one big issue though, when set to playback DSD via "native DSD" I get the audio but also a lot of static/white noise. When I disable native DSD I get 176k PCM playback cleanly, but not ideal since I'd rather skip the DSD->PCM conversion.
I'm running the latest FIIO firmware and 1.99.0 eval edition of Neutron.
Please Advise.
Thanks!

I have the same problem. But how can you see you are in 172 pcm ? I cant see that on Neutron

According to a beta tester's post on Head-fi, Neutron isn't able to play DSD natively on FiiO devices yet, i.e. those settings we see are pretty much useless at the moment on said devices. It is best to switch both of them off for now.

If you go into the audio hardware settings the current bitrate is shown at the top of the screen.LudoLVG wrote:I have the same problem. But how can you see you are in 172 pcm ? I cant see that on Neutron

Keep in mind, though, that when playing DSD files it sometimes shows the values of the last non-DSD file played, i.e. something like 44.1 or 96 kHz.
