I recently joined the drop group buy of this DAC. Can't be happier, looks great and sounds great too.
However, this device just doesn't support 32 bit PCM under both windows and mac.
I installed the latest driver 5.57 on windows. I even tried uninstalling and reinstalling etc.
I am pretty sure it is not the USB cable. I tried my own cable that works perfectly with Topping E70.
I also tried the blue cable that comes with the device. Still I can only use up to 24 bit.
I contacted the Cayin support, and they claim they are working on a firmware update to
address this. And they even claim the firmware is under development.
However, given that this model is in production for almost 3 years. I kind of find it hard-to-believe
that they are developing a firmware to fix this. I hope this is going to happen.
And if they fail to address this, I think I will never buy another Cayin product ever again.
It is one thing to make a defective product and it is another to lie to customers.
