Hi @maxmp is 32/384 also available for the M11? The dual dac is certainly capable of that bitrate. Edit: apologies, just saw that it is, thank you! Could you confirm the questions above, whether Poweramp resamples all files, even standard res 16/44.1 files? What, in your opinion, is the effect on sound quality of it does, and are there any settings you recommend to maximise sound quality?
-
I see that you’re using Bluetooth. As far as I know high-res is only available for wired headphones and USB dac, not Bluetooth. Check Settings - Audio...
-
Are you using Build 829? Works great on mine.
-
Haha, yes! Neutron UI is fugly! Would be great if Poweramp had an ‘off’ function for upsampling/resampling. Is there a technical reason it has to resample in the first place, even for files of the same bitrate as output (if that’s actually what it does)?
-
‘Defines by device’ is the confusing one. Does that mean if the device is playing a 24/88.2 file, Poweramp will output it as 24/88.2 without resampling? Same for 16/44.1? I read that Poweramp resamples ALL files. So for example even if I specific 16/44.1 and play back a 16/44.1 file, Poweramp takes the file, resamples it (even if it’s to the same bitrate), then plays it. That’s what I need @maxmp to confirm.
-
The thing is many of us are not using Poweramp on phones, which aren’t great for audio (unless you have something like the LG V20/30), but in dedicated music players with high-real dacs and special audio circuits, so high-res is very much audible and desirable and upsampling/downsampling artefacts are not. My original question, and I hope @maxmp can confirm, is whether Poweramp resamples ALL files, or leaves 16/44.1 files alone (in standard res mode) and leaves high-res files alone (in high-res mode)?
-
Yes but I’m using Poweramp on a high-res dap (FiiO M11), so why would it be defaulting to 16/48? Should it not respect the capabilities of the dac and leave the files as-is if it can?
-
I was under the impression that Poweramp resamples EVERYTHING to 16/44.1 or 16/48 if not high-res, and resamples all non-high-res files to 24/192 when in high-res mode. Is this not correct? In other words Poweramp ALWAYS resamples or upsamples and doesn’t have a bitperfect mode. Let me know if that’s wrong, and if so what actually happens with the processing.
-
Well - it seems to be resampling to 24/192 for most files. However files that are already high-res seem to be playing in their native res. For example, I have several DSD tips at 24/88.2, and when I check the output settings during playback, it shows 24/88.2 (as opposed to 24/192 for most other files).
-
Hi - yes you’re right! It’s active now. Will test out today. Currently says 24-bit 192khz. I assume it resamples everything to this value? Or does the file determine the high-res level?
-
Hi @maxmp - thanks for the official 829. Are you still working on FiiO M11 high-res support? Keenly awaiting this so I can switch over to Poweramp permanently. Thanks!
-
Hi @maxmp - thanks for all your efforts on this. Seems like there are multiple requests from FiiO M11/X5iii owners. The M11 is soon (likely next week) to be released in the US and Europe, which is going to lead to high demand for hi-res music software. I’m going to be writing a full review on the M11 and using Poweramp as an example, and I’ve already heard from numerous users waiting to buy Poweramp as soon as it supports hi-res headphone output on the device. I imagine adding support for the M11 and X5iii should be very similar so hopefully not too much extra work for you! Thanks again in adv

Hi - would be most grateful if you could add hi-res support for the FiiO M11 (Samsung Exynos 7872 SoC). This dap uses dual AK4493EQ dacs and the 16/48 resampling limitation is really holding Poweramp back! Device model - FiiO M11 ROM version (Android version: 7.0 customised) Why do you think your device supports Hi-Res: https://www.fiio.com/m11 Many thanks...
