    XMOS XU208 USB BRIDGES - THE LATEST GEN HAS ARRIVED!

    Tracking numbers from seller wsz0304 on ebay do not work. I spend my whole week asking him whether he shipped the Xmos or not. Eventually after ten times 'I'll check', got a clear answer : "not shipped"   Bought another unit from rcshop2011, will see now if that's better

    Hello,    I do think it works better at 8.5 or 9V. Surprisingly, a bit louder as well.   Possibly a bit cooler at 7V, but I have a steady 35°C at 8.5V, so not really concerned. You're right to spot it, I do not power the USB interface with the uR, that is possibly the reason why.

    Tried the HDPlex PSU and happy with it. I'm also powering my NAS and a Xmos interface separately with it.   Not sure I will go for the "mystery" as it only give a max of 7V and doesn't appear to be optimal, at least from what I read.   As 9V seems to be better in term of SQ, I'm considering...

    Gino,    Obviously it's not in stock !   And I think MINORISUKE is perfectly right, F1 is probably not in stock but resellers still pretend that's ok to maximise their profits.   My issue is just they still pretend to have shipped the item when it's obviously not the case

    Hi,    Thanks all of you. Really. I feel more confident now.  Tried to find the DHL tracking number on ebay transaction but I can only see the one from HongKong Post. Just need to be a bit more patient :)   In there they appear to have stock, not sure whether it is reliable or not...  ...

    Bought mine from ebay seller (wsz0304). Tracking number appears to be a fake, nothing seems to be actually shipped and seller simply ignore my requests. Very bad customer experience :(

    LPSU makes a massive difference over the regular ifi power at 9V. - with the ifi psu, uR is a good source,  -with a nice LPSU, uR is simply superbe. Give it a try and let us know

      Same issue for me, Xmos supposed to be shipped 1 week ago and still can't track it. I wonder if they did shipped it actually
