Topic: adi-2 dac: no lock/sync over spdif/rca at 192khz
Hi.
Should this work?
I have an Allo digione signature connected by coax to my adi-2 dac. I can connect at all speeds up to 96khz, but not at 192khz (status screen shows nothing (no lock, no sync) for the sp-c line.)
This is true for either 192khz music files, or when forcing the player software (picoreplayer) to upsample to 192khz
the same source (with same psu and cable) connects fine to a different dac (beresford caiman seg)
and the same player connects fine into the rme via usb. (the allo does not have an optical out)
I've just updated the rme to latest firmware, but no change.
so: a) this won't work, or b) I'm doing something wrong, or c) my dac is defective, or d) something else
later:
I've tried serveral digital coax cables - no change
I've tried an old pi2/hifiberry digi+ - spdif optical works fine with this at 192khz. spdif coax shows flashing error messages , a mixture of
"non audio signal at spdif coax input" and "Emphasis detected at spdif coax input" - but no lock/sync
