Overview
Upgrade your USB DAC to Asynchronous 24/192
USB inputs on many DACs don’t support resolution beyond 16-bit/48kHz. The Peachtree Audio X1 USB to SPDIF Converter interfaces between your computer’s USB output and your DAC’s SPDIF input (coax or optical) to provide a high-resolution upgrade over your DAC's stock USB input.
The X1 lets you fully enjoy the highest-resolution digital music available – all the way to 24-bit/192kHz resolution!
If your computer's operating system is Windows XP, Windows 7 or Windows 8 you'll need a small easy-to-install driver to unlock the X1's 24-bit/192kHz resolution. No driver is needed for Mac OS X. Download WIndows Driver Now.

| Decco, Decco2, iDecco, Nova, musicBox |
maximum 16/48 44.1, 48kHz |
maximum 24/96 44.1, 48, 88.2, 96kHz |
| iNova, iDac, DAC•iT | maximum 24/96 44.1, 48, 96kHz |
maximum 24/192 44.1, 48, 88.2, 96, 176.4, 192kHz |
• If you need to run a long USB cable (over 3 meters) from your computer to your audio system you'll likely experience dropouts. Instead, use an X1 with a 1.5M USB cable from the computer and a 1.5M 75Ω SPDIF cable to the system. The connection should now be rock solid.
• The X1’s USB input is transformer-coupled so it is effective at isolating noise from the computer and preventing it from getting to the DAC. The transformer-coupled X1 can also assist in solving ground loop issues.
