It can't. The only format that is understood by DACs like this is I²S (Inter-IC Sound) data. Anything else won't work.Amirm, thanks for your valuable reviews. I have a question for you: As I prefer to use HDMI for my audio output, does this IIS/LVDS input take HDMI audio?
Funny thing is that I was just in a chat with customer support from Linsoul and they said that IT CAN interpret HDMI Audio source.It can't. The only format that is understood by DACs like this is I²S (Inter-IC Sound) data. Anything else won't work.
I don't own this D70 kit specifically but have owned a Singxer device before which offered the I²S format required for this kind of connection. Relevant thread: https://www.audiosciencereview.com/...face-better-for-dacs-than-s-pdif-or-usb.7105/Veri, do you own the equipment?
It's just naming of the connector. You need to check the manual, there's almost no DACs that can decode HDMI audio the way you are talking about. It's pretty much always I2S. Only a receiver could receive and transcode HDMI, or a HDMI splitter intended for such use.Is the Singxer also made by Linsoul?
My suspicion here is the licensing issue about HDMI. Chinese manufacturers are not keen on publishing that they use HDMI when in fact they do.
Linsoul manufactures another DAC-brand named Crescent. There is model EP3Pro that they don't sell directly but through 3rd parties.
On that one, they have no problem naming the connector as HDMI (see image).
So I was guessing that they might do the same with their other brands but just not brag about it.
So it might well be the case that even though the connector is not named HDMI that it does work with HDMI too.
Is it a reclocker Or a resampler? I am not familiar with ESS Dacs, if it is in fact the right terminology, or the terminology they use, does someone knows what it means in this application?
Basically; yes. Both chips will become a rarity though, AKM cannot produce them right now.Is single 4499 that much better than 2x4497
XLR to RCA cables cannot possibly work the way you want. RCA standard cannot carry XLR signal over such a simple adapter cable. It will have the exact same voltage as using RCA-RCA cable. So you'd gain nothing buying this kind of cable.Hello
i am consider to getting the D70s and pair it with a A50s (XLR to RCA cables). Do you think this is a good combination or is it just an overkill for the A50s? Or should i just pay a bit more and get the A90?
