The DAC employs a custom-built USB chip that allows streaming audio up to 384 kHz.
The Zodiac line uses a master clock that is encapsulated in a “thermally isolated region”, which Antelope calls ‘oven’, to keep it as precise as possible. Jitter management is handled by the proprietary Acoustically Focused Clocking technology (AFC), implemented in all Antelope’s professional master clocks.
At the time of this review, the latest firmware update brought the Asynchronous jitter rejection mode to the USB.
DSD support is scheduled for the first quarter of 2013, with a firmware upgrade.

呵呵呵～
Zodiac Gold真係有買貴冇買錯，好公司＋好產品，令D後續功能仲可以不斷免費增值！

謝謝Anthony兄報料。

Antelope 網站有 DAC的control panel 軟件，有齊Mac/Windows/Linux版，不單click個制就自動check有冇update，仲做到同隻DAC一模一樣，可以用這個軟件控制晒全部DAC的功能，非常方便！




就講就發現有個新update，可惜仲未係support DSD：



click個制等一會就update完了，要熄機再開一次：

I'm always ready by my 20TB in RAID-5 NAS and infinite storage cloud backup plan, up to 8EB now:



Just seems not much source DSD file may purchase.

Any recommendation for DSD file download, both free or buy ?

Nick兄救命！

Download咗個control panel後想update個firmware. 點知佢話device inconsistent, 要unplug the power cord.

部DAC個front panel就show "Ldr", 㩒任何制都冇反應，熄埋power，掹埋電線都係咁。

啱啱再試，個control panel不停load冇返應，宜家front panel出E31。有冇得救！

你用mac 定pc?

係咪update緊的中途出過事，例如整鬆左條線，電腦hang機或者夾硬甩過電源？

如果有另一部pc，試下駁另一部再update一次，我試過類似情況在mac機發生出現E31，駁windows pc再update一次就冇事了。
