Laptop going into Denafrips Pontus help
I’m selling a Denafrips Pontus and guy asked me this question, I have no clue, I use a streamer. Here is what he asked “ had a concern with getting the proper driver since my source will be streaming and music files from a Windows 10 laptop. Denafrips website is URL blacklisted, which isn’t very encouraging”. I don’t know what to tell him. I used a lap top with a DAC long ago but never with any Denafrips, thanks for any help
To second @jastralfu, I ran this exact setup with no problems. As I understand it, the downloadable driver basically allows you to (re)route the laptop audio via a USB output. The biggest limitation involves the laptop as a music source; IMHO, even a cheap streamer like the Bluesound Node Nano will noticeably improve the sound quality. |
