Is DSD working now on either the OSX release candidate or the windows public beta?

I was really wondering as well, but weren't bothered till you asked.
So I deinstalled 3.0 beta, installed 2.1.3, reboot and all and guess what?
Instant blue screen of death.... 2.1.3 and me aren't friends that's for sure!
Back to 3.0... Which sounds great btw.

I did install it on Win10, works fine. SQ seems to be better.

No golden ears here, but I installed it directly on my NUC which runs Roon, and to me it sounds at least as good as the Mac AIR3b to which I had previously been RAATing.

AIR3b for Mac has been completely stable for me, so if this Win version is as good, then maybe we finally have a solution.

I am keen to hear SQ observations from others with better hearing and/or more revealing systems  Big Grin

Yes, DSD64 is working on this AIR3.0b for Windows. I'm using it with RoonBridge running on a Win8.1 notebook.

And, the initial listening on DSD64 materials is fantastic! Brothers in Arms by Dire Straits is into another level of clarity and definition with AIR3.0b. Cool!

Please do the extended DSD test for white noise you did in the past.  I sure would like your feedback on extended DSD Air stress.

Thanks!

Installed on a win10 notebook - but my Dev.120 doesn't show up in the AIR 3.0 app - although in WiFi Mode and in the same WLAN.
Any idea?

Do you see your Devialet connected to your router?  Of course moot point, if it was working before with an older version of Air.
