Sup people.

I had another problem with the H5, I wasn't able to play upsample DSD music files through HQPlayer into the shanling, I already downloaded the ASIO drivers to my PC and both HQPlayer and Roon detect the DAC but no music is coming through, asking for a friend!!!

Thx, I got it to work and it sounds amazing.

I have another question regarding the RCA pre-out, does it go through the amp section of this device or is it pulled straight from the DAC itself?

RCA out is separated from Headphone amplifier.

When you play standard DSD and not upsampled, does it work?
Is your H5 correctly detecting incoming DSD signal?

Thanks for the clarification

Need to do further testing, unfortunately I don't have any native/standard DSD files, I was trying to upsample to DSD512 with some high intensive modulators and filters through HQPlayer, it seems the H5 was getting a signal but for what I remember, it detected it as PCM and not DSD and failed to reproduce any music.

I checked and can only confirm it works as expected with Foobar (+SACD, ASIO+DSD and other usually needed plugins) and DSD128 and DSD256 files. Worth to note I needed to install USB Driver: https://en.shanling.com/download/69. Anyway, now you know it works on H5 side (v1.2 firmware).

Thanks dude. i already installed the latest USB driver from Shanling's website and my H5 came with the v1.2 firmware, probably need to play around with HQP a little bit more to make it work, it could also be the usb cable I'm using, gonna change to another one I have to see if that fixes the issue also.
