Install the Windows Driver.
- Connect the UA100 to a Windows PC via a USB-C cable.
- Download the Windows driver program “EarFun USB Audio Drivers_setup_V1.0.exe” on the EarFun website www.myearfun.com.
- Unzip and install the Drivers program.
Note: Only after successfully installing the driver program can the foobar2000 Player play the 96KHz and DSD High-Resolution Audio.
Install the foobar2000 Player and the related plugins.
- Download and install the foobar2000 Player Installer package file from the link: www.foobar2000.org/download. Please ensure to choose the correct program version (64- bit or 32-bit) based on your Windows system.
- Download and install the player plugin “ASIO Output” from the link: www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_out_asio. Without the “ASIO Output” plugin, High Resolution Audio will not be output and played.
- Download and install the decoder plugin “Super Audio CD Decoder (DSD)” from the link: https://sourceforge.net/projects/sacddecoder/files/foo_input_sacd/. Without the “foo_input_sacd” plugin, the DSD Audio file will not be decoded and played in foobar2000 Player.
Setup the Player.
-
After installing the foobar2000 Player ASIO, and DSD plugins, launch the Player.
-
Click on File > Preferences > Playback > Output in the Player program.
-
Select ASIO: EarFun UA100 as Device Output and click OK to complete and play the lossless output of High-Resolution Audio above 96KHz. (Please note that without the UA100 Drivers program and the Player-related ASIO plugins properly set up, the PC won’t show it in the Output Device list.)
-
Click on File > Preferences > Tools > SACD in the Player program, select “DSD” as Output-Type, and then click “OK” to complete. Then you can add DSD Audio file and play High Resolution music. Please also pay attention to the changes of the UA100 LED light.
