    Topping E30 DAC Review

    Mine is 2004, as so I didn't have to install the newer firmware. But probably still has the polarity issue on the coax and optical inputs. But I can live with that. Not understanding why the coax stops working after a few seconds is what really troubles me.

    Topping E30 DAC Review

    I've tested today with the RPi 4 and USB works fine too. I haven't finished the RPi 4 install but it played the radio ok. The strange behaviour of the coax input is still a mistery to me.

    A Raspberry Pi as a music server

    Good news. Configuration has progressed well. I've also installed Squeezer 2.1.0 and was able to establish connection between my Nokia 7.1 and the Pi4. Tomorrow I'll setup the USB HDD. Than I'll have to make the small oled display to work and to check SSH connection. Oh! and check that Material...

    Topping E30 DAC Review

    Well, I've reeived the E30 and already tried it. The manual isn't supberb so I have some doubts. First one is how can we change the sample rate? I'm still finishing the Raspberry Pi4 with PiCorePlayer install, so still haven't tested with USB. PS4 is connected by Toslink and sounds good. TV is...

    So, I got the RPi4 booting with PiCorePlayer but I need a keyboard to further set it up properly, namely using the HDD, wi-fi and to fully configure it as a player. Also got the Topping E30 and I'll be receiving the last cable during this week. Also have to pick one app to run it from my...

    Rune is, by now, out of question because it doesn't run on a RPi4

    Topping E30 DAC Review

    Shenzhen Audio confirmed by message through Amazon that they ship from China. In those cases and any duty would be the buyers responsibility so I've ordered from Audiophonics. The extra cost was just the shipping cost from Bordeaux to Lisbon, and I've bought some additional stuff: a small oled...

    Topping E30 DAC Review

    Mee too. 15 to 25 days. The Raspberry Pi will arrive in 10 to 20 days (because of other stuff, namely a new extension lead to acomodate the new equipments and to refurbish all the Audio and Video equipments connections). Looooong wait:eek:
