Compatible products

A complete list of all products compatible with Music Library. The compatible products are different depends on the system software versions.

Note

The compatibility test results were obtained in a test environment and this does not necessarily guarantee that similar results will be achieved in different circumstances. Compatibility tests are limited to verification of communication protocols in the short term, and may not necessarily apply to extended operating periods. 

Similarly, the results obtained are for the test samples only and may not be indicative of revised production by a third-party manufacturer which is beyond our control.

DELA supports music file types only, with sampling rates and bit rates which conform to the specification of the network audio player or the USB DAC. (Please do not attempt to play files which the USB DAC does not support. If connecting a USB DAC that does not support DSD over PCM, then please use the ‘Convert to PCM’ function in the SETTINGS menu.)

The operating conditions and any restrictions are noted alongside the product name.

USB connection caution

1. Depending on your USB DAC, the very beginning of a music file may not be reproduced if the sampling rate has changed between music files, or if playing DSD files. In this case, go to Settings>USB DAC>Precision Start Latency and set a gap time around two seconds. This will allow the DAC to change and settle.

2. Data transmission may be unstable while using specialist audiophile USB cables which do not conform to the USB specification. Please try a PC-grade cable, as a reference check if experiencing problems.

3. Sometimes there will be unavoidable small click or other noise when switching between PCM and DSD formats depending on the behavior of the
 DAC. Caution is advised when formats change within a playlist.

LAN connection caution

1. Please take care not to damage the Ethernet connectors by using excessively heavy/stiff Ethernet connectors and cables.
2. Should you experience any problems relating to Gapless playback, or noises between audio files, please contact the third-party manufacturer or your dealer; the Music Library can only deliver files as requested by the renderer/player.
