Upsampling on Rose RS130

Hi Bustahip!

Can you help me with which filter do you use? Do you hear a difference when changing filters? Have you tested the upsampling feature or do you mostly go with bypassing the signal from RS130? Have you also tested higher voltage? I´m testing new XLR cables today as well, will not be possible to test with the SFP USB unfortunately before I need to send the RD160 back. Thank you!

Hi Gorsti,
I use the slow filter, but have to say the difference between the filters is minimal listening on my system.
I usually use the pcm or bypass sampling feature. I have tried the DSD but prefer the pcm.
The balanced input overload on my Michi is 5.5v so I set the 160 output to 4v, which I find is the sweet spot for me.
Shame you can’t test the sfp connection as in my opinion is far the best and would not be surprised to see more manufacturers implementing this on their products.
Happy testing !!!

Hi Bustahip!

Update:

As it looks just now I will continue with my Michi X3 with AKM DAC for a while.
