Ops. I did it again... just got another XQ-50, going to be optically plugged to my E50. Lots of fun for Sunday! ;)

Oh! ::) Thanks a lot!

Sorry of extend you my bad memories with the early attempt of eq by Topping, the long time forgotten M50. That device was unable to equalize any audio above 44.1. @amirm, do you know if this new device shares a similar behavior?

Too late. Tidal just broke the bank with its new tiers.

An elegant step in the right direction. Well done, @Fosi Audio, and as usual many thanks for the appreciated review, @amirm!

You're doing nothing wrong. All of those Deltron-Style bananas suffer this side effect due their lenght that is usually exceeding the standard bananas. Same matter happens using Viborgs or XLO bananas, it's just a mere question of allowance of the bindings. It's anyway a good step-up if...

Sad but true...

This forcibly remembers to me Topping's first attempt of putting EQ on a single device. The M50 had presets and customizable ten-bands EQ profiles, sadly limited at 44.1-32 via USB. Needless to say, it was a shooting star and I was lucky to find one of these things just in time to give it a try...

Dammit, it checks a lot of my boxes. Luckily, my wallet saw it coming before my brain and started to terror-shake! Kidding... it's a nifty thing, for sure. I like a lot its concept and aspect is very appealing but I'm not sure about its actual place in a strange market as HiFi is.

Oh, damn. Don't need it at all, but I like so much its form factor. Thanks @amirm for getting me on the damnation path! :) hehe!

So, another lovely semi-vert brick from Aiyima. :) I like this form factor overall, just have some itch when there's an external power brick. Thanks for this highly appreciated review, @amirm! My vote is "great" for the amp itself, obviously less for the power brick.

Long time user of Viborg banana plugs here. Always chose bare copper ones for all of my speaker cables, and never had to regret about their performance or look at any gold/rhodium/silver coated replacement. I'd like to know which kind of enhancement do these coated plugs actually offer, but it...

Maybe due the hype of extreme oversampling affecting large part of the market, honestly don't care so much. I'm fine living within the Toslink capabilities, some other people just don't.

Many people thinks that being limited to a transfer rate good for DSD 64 or PCM 24-192, TosLink is somewhat less HiFi...

I currently have 4 RC-15 remotes, (E30, E50, 2x D30Pro) and, honestly, never had any beam reception problem up to 5 meters. This beam thing always puzzles me.

hello, it just depends on what you are looking for about versatility. E30 is barebone DAC, D10s also works as usb bridge. About sound, difficult to listen to any difference imho.

Amen, Father Sal! ;)

Ok, got it...

Still don't understand the aim of this thread, sorry. For sure they went badly wrong at their infographics, so could this impact on the quality of the musical content they offer? (rhetorical question, of course...)

Wasapi exclusive mode bypasses volume mixer of Windows audio stack, hence EQ APO is unable to work. Using non exclusive modes of wasapi, E-APO works fine, but your player app cannot send to your DAC the sampling reference.
