It should. but I will test optical soon with Chromecast Audio.
Where’s the optical coming from?thanks.. I'm trying to figure out some issues I have with 192/24 flacs using optical...

+ Although not advertised as part of the features, the USB input is capable of DSD decoding. (not sure max DSD )
Google tells me the LOXJIE A30 uses a Realtek ALC4050 USB interface chip, which apparently reports itself to the host operating system as a generic "USB Audio Class 2 Device" and will then work with the standard USB Audio2 driver in Windows 8 and 10. This USB chip is quite advanced; it supports high data rates and DSD, but I suspect it's probably limited by the standard Windows 8/10 driver. The solution would probably be to install a better vendor-supplied driver ... but presently Realtek does not provide one.i do not think so it can capable of DSD decoding.
"I own A30, a little PSA about it: - Coaxial input is shared with right AUX input - you can't use both.- Built in DAC doesn't support x2, x4 etc of 44.1 kHz through USB - so you can't play 88.2 kHz etc. bitperfect. What's strange it does by Toslink (and Coaxial). That said it sounds awesome and build quality is great. Especially for the money"
Yes, that's quite feasible. The s/pdif interface is different from the Realtek USB interface.someone on reddit said that Loxjie A30 supprot 88.2kHz, 176kHz via optical/coaxial not via USB.
Hi Everybody,
My Receiver just died and I was thinking of switching to the A30, will it be able to power my 2 speakers?
Specs:
I watch movies so I would like it cinema loud but obviously not hearing damage loud. Sitting about 10ft away from the speaker.
Thanks.
The Loxjie A30's MA12070 amplifier chip can output 35W/26V (8Ω, 1kHz, THD+N=1%) power with a BTL connection.Hi Everybody,

OK, ran some more test and analog input actually is fine. For consistency I set all integrated amps to gain of 29 dB. Here, doing so resulted in much higher noise level. If I turn the volume down and increase input to 1.9 volt, I get the same result as digital:
So the preamp is noisy.
Right, I was trying with DSD64 and it didn't work, had to change to PCM conversioni do not think so it can capable of DSD decoding. I tried with Foobar2000 and SACD plugin and not work via USB in DSD decoding mode. Only work "DSD over PCM" mode at only 44.1kHz, nothing higher like 88.2kHz... etc.
