I2S and the Rose 130

Good morning Tom,
Glad to hear that, thanks to share your experience.
Best regards
Nuno

Thank You Sebrof,
I Will take a close look, but according to Tom, both connectors fit.
:+1:t2:

The I2S connector are the same in both Laiv and 130 i presume. Thatā€™s correct?
Thanks.

Yes. An ordinary HDMI cable works as well. You can change the I2S mode on the Laiv DAC to match with the RS130. I was using the first Laiv Audio Mode, which works the best IMO.

Thanks, i Will take a look on that. Decision made, going onto the RS130 and Laiv.

So the i2S out in Config A is the same as PS Audio except thereā€™s channel swap was for Native DSD only.

does anyone have i2s A mode working with >dsd 256? I have some dsd 512 files and could not get the i2s A mode to work with my dsd512 (22,57 MHz). It seems like B mode might support those files but couldnā€™t get the combination of cable and my dac (topping dx9) to sync properly in B mode.

It might be dac dependant. However, it didnā€™t work for me (PS Audio MK2 and A mode). Thatā€™s why I changed to using USB.

No problem running DSD256 Native from RS130 to Holo May via 12S A mode to my Holo May KTE. I do have to disable PLL on the May to get signal to lock.

Lately, I am preferring HQ Player to my DAC bypassing the Rose. Shame that Rose wonā€™t look into making the Rose a HP endpoint, would be perfect and I am sure perform better than a Raspberry Pi.

I was try to find out if anyone was able to get greater than 256 in A mode. Ex dsd512

Has anyone played DSD512 files?
Although in the RS130 specifications it is written that it is compatible, I did not succeed.

I wonder if it could be a pinout thing.

I was able to play dsd512 but only via the USB interface

And where are the files? On internal SSD, external SSD/HDD connected to RSA720?
My configuration is internal SSD, optical fiber, RSA720, USB cable, Audio Analogue AAdac.
I also tried with external SSD ub connected to RSA720, with the same negative result.

USB stick directly connected on the back of the rs130

Thanks for the answer.
I will try this way too, but it should also work from the internal SSD or a memory connected to the RSA720.
Did it work as Native DSD or DOP?
