    Topping DX5 II

    Honestly my take on the DX5 II so far is that it absolutely needs to have its bugs sorted out and you're kind of buying a beta product unfortunately. But the quirks are things I can live with/work around and this has become my daily driver and the headaches it adds are far outweighed by the...

    Topping DX5 II

    BTW, just to confirm for the Mac users: Topping Tune works just fine with VMWare Fusion. Just follow all the instructions to install Windows 11 Arm, install Topping Tune, ignore the "not compatible" alert, and you can tweak EQ settings with it without any trouble. Make sure you give VMware...

    Fosi K7 Gaming DAC and HP Amp Review

    Wish this had balanced XLR output but honestly, well done Fosi, they've become an interesting name in the space with their products.

    You might want to look into this Emotiva adapter which doesn't map cold to ground: https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/xlr-output-to-rca-input-done-properly.32051/ https://emotiva.com/products/balanced-xlr-female-to-unbalanced-rca-female-adapter-interconnect

    Topping DX5 II

    Yes, you have to import the profile to the on-device storage, but I'm using PEQ profiles connected to my Mac which is currently connected via SPDIF as I connect via USB to my Windows machine to make updates until I get Topping Tune working via VM or whatever other method. Using my DX5 II again...

    Topping DX5 II

    The annoying issue I'm running into right now is when you change outputs, the EQ profile doesn't stick unless you re-select it, even toggling EQ on and off doesn't work. Can't say I'm noticing any significant inaccuracies if any but I'm sure somebody will figure it out if they do exist.

    Topping DX5 II

    Importing seems a bit buggy at this point but they seem fine once you set them up manually. You should also share more details in your posts.

    Yeah I got mine today, no import duties.

    Topping DX5 II

    Yeah, that'd be fine. I think someone's gotten Topping Tune to work via VM as well, but I'm not in the mood to mess with it yet.

    Topping DX5 II

    Just got mine this afternoon. Updated the firmware. I'm sure I will have complaints about little quirks (why can't I delete the default EQ options? Mac app as well, please) but...this is the solution I've wanted for a long time now.

    Uni-box S3 from Project

    I need to see this on Amir's test bench, if it's got decent specs it could be a must-buy.

    Pass-through / convert from optical **to** USB

    Well huh, how about that. Reviewed by Amir but not sure if anyone's tried the USB functionality themselves. That being said, this might be the thing for you: https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/creative-sound-blaster-x5-interface-review.46857/

    Pass-through / convert from optical **to** USB

    Okay, this is actually a use case that makes sense, but your path of least resistance is going to be a different device. It looks like Auracast transmitters that take SPDIF in do exist: https://www.amazon.com/HomeSpot-Bluetooth-Transmitter-Compatible-Headphones/dp/B0DJ33677Q

    Topping DX5 II

    Okay, when you mentioned a quantization bug I was a bit worried but if it's still hitting 113 dB SINAD, only slightly above the physical limit of audibility if I understand that ~115 dB is that limit, I'm not concerned. Unrelated, but I wouldn't get my hopes up for an app, IMO, though I'd love...

    Pass-through / convert from optical **to** USB

    So what I'm curious about, that seems to have gone un-asked much less un-answered...what's the use case here?

    Okay yeah I'm probably in batch 2. My dreams of being free of eqMac deferred...

    Topping DX5 II

    That's something! I ordered at 7:06pm PDT on Monday, did you order before me?

    Topping DX5 II

    Has anybody who ordered from the official Topping store had their order ship yet? I jumped on it there since the listing was up before any other retailers.

    Topping DX5 II

    Yeah, eqMac is the one piece of software that works for me and even then I have to restart the audio engine more often than I'd like. My issue really is that SoundSource and Sound Control both just absolutely DO NOT work well with web browsers, especially when I'm on Google Meet calls.

    Topping DX5 II

    Topping really needs to get this thing on the market because the Mac software EQ solutions do not work well with my computer for whatever reason
