The no-name USB cables at $2.99 might also cause problems. The said “audiophile” USB cables, that I call exotic cables, carry more troubles than improvements, in particular in 192Khz streaming. We strongly recommend using the USB cable supplied inside DOGE 7 carton. You need to have a recent and decent USB cable, certified USB 2.0. > You need an available USB 2.0 port or USB 3.0 port. > Instead of writing many technical terms, we prefer to mention that you need to have a PC not too old, not older than 2010, to avoid hardware unmatching. > a PC using Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 10 or a MAC using Mac OS 10.6.4 or later. > If you own a MAC, just check ” The requirements” section and then go directly to “installation part 3 ” The minimum hardware requirements for your PC are listed below. The driver installation will take less than 5 minutes. In conclusion, due to the fact that the DOGE 7 uses a high-resolution XMOS chip, it is necessary to install an XMOS driver in order to play music from a Windows PC. If you never updated your Windows 10 for 1 year it might not be recognized automatically. The only requirement is you need to have an updated version of Windows 10. USB Audio 2.0 is however supported natively in Windows 10 & Apple’s MAC OS. The entry-level DACs that are only 96Khz compliant use the protocol USB Audio 1.0 which is supported natively in Windows 7, 8, and 10, whereas 192Khz and above USB chips use the USB Audio 2.0 protocol which is NOT natively supported by Window old version. DOGE 7 uses a high-end USB chip called XMOS that allows playing files PCM files up to 384Khz and DSD files up to DSD 128, through the USB port of your PC, whereas most mass-market DACs have a limit of 96Khz.
