Receiver: Savitech SA9023A
DAC: TI PCM5102A
Async: Unsure (Isochronous adaptive)
Working with Volumio: YES*
Tested Versions and Platforms: Raspberry Pi 4B 2GB rev 1.4, Volumio 2.873
Harware Mixer on Volumio: YES
HW Mixer string: N/A
Comments: *Only works with a USB A hub in between the Pi and the DAC. The hub does not need to be separately powered. Without the hub it has connectivity issues and will not function properly. (It might only be my specific Pi or my specific MX3 that does this). I am using a UGREEN 4 port USB 3.0 hub.

Name: Cambridge Audio Azur 851N
Receiver: USB Receiver using Class 2 USB Audio mode
DAC: 2x Analog Devices AD1955

Comments: DAC displays PCM 192 kHz with DSD direct setting, and DSD with DSD over PCM (DoP). Apparently that is due to the fact that 851N supports only DSD-over-PCM via USB and DSD direct is not supported
