Context:
Mac mini (2018)
Audirvana Mac Version 3.5.43 (3573)
MacOS BigSur (11.1, latest update)
DSD over PCM 1.1 is enabled (PCM 1.0 makes no difference)
When Convert to PCM is selected, all files play well and there is no problem. I prefer to select DSD over PCM though. What can be the reason for the difference in playback and is there any advice in how it might be resolved? Otherwise I have to stick with conversion to PCM.
DAC:
Denon AVR-X3600H
Connected with HDMI 2.0 compatible cable
The files that play normally:
- DSD128
- Downloaded from online store
- 5.0 channel
The files that play noise:
- DSD64
- Ripped from SACD (as personal backup)
- 5.0 channel
The files are stored on the same harddrive.
