    Default TC-7520 only 48 kHz?

    Hello. I thought I'd try the three month Amazon HDU free trial. I have a Beresford TC-7520 that I'm using as a preamp with an old Quad power amp. TC-7520 is supposed to be 98 kHz. Amazon will play 98 kHz but displays my 'device capability' at 48 hHz. Does anyone know if/how I can get to 98 kHz please? Thank you..

    Stop using USB, and go coax or optical SPDIF.

    Ah, ok - thank you so much! So that would be from either of the two coaxial inputs on the back of the DAC. Where exactly on the back of my PC does it connect to? I assume I can still use the fixed output (to use DAC as a preamp)..

    You will likely need a usb to spdif convertor.
    Or use a rpi with digi board and cast the music from pc to it.
    It's unlikely your pc has a coax out

    My PC has a SPDIF output as standard on the motherboard.
    It all depends on the spec of the PC.

    Thank you Grant. I just searched online for usb to spdif convertors. They seem to vary in price.. Are the cheap ones on Ebay ok and is there anything I should be looking out for? Would you could recommend any?

    Thank you Kev. Is the output marked as SPDIF on the back of the PC?

    It may have an optical output, or what looks like a yellow RCA plug, or neither.
    It depends on the PC.
