Under WinXP environment, kernel streaming (KS) is recommended for PCM, and ASIO

(native or ASIO4ALL) for DSD playback. Under W7/8 environment, WASAPI or ASIO mode is

recommended for both PCM and DSD playback.

For MacOS, first set your output sound device as Hydra Z (in System Preferences – Sound –

Output). In Audio MIDI setup - Hydra Z device, set oversampling ratio at maximum 192 KHz.

HYDRA Z special SETTINGS

For extended compatibility with the dacs available, there are some hardware settings that can

be altered via the internal jumpers. In order to reach the jumpers, top cover must be removed.

Please use appropriate screwdriver (cross type) to remove the 4 top screws. After you removed the

top cover, you can find on the right of the board a set of jumpers noted J21....J26.

For jumper settings, see below. Make sure that you have the latest firmware uploaded in your

Hydra Z. Present settings are for firmware 1.06. If you have no sound or distorted sound over the I2S

output, alter J22 or J24..26 setting.
