Getting digital audio from my PS5 into my Topping E30

Hello everyone,

I am looking for a solution to circumvent the removal of the optical output on the PS5.

So far, I have seen two possibilities:
  1. A UAC1 USB Audio Interface, such as the Behringer UCA202/UCA222
  2. An HDMI Audio Extractor
I would be fine with the first solution, however, the interface is limited to 16 bit at 48KHz. Though I am unsure if 24 bit at 96KHz is possible for UAC1 devices.
Preferably, I would like to steer clear of HDMI Audio Extractor, as I have not found ones supporting HDCP 2.3 so far.

If you could recommend a solution, especially a "better" USB audio interface, I would very much appreciate it. Thank you!

What i'm doing right now is taking TOSLINK output of my TV and into the DAC. It's basically an HDMI extractor but done properly without the extra hastle.

This is best solution imo.

Unfortunately that will not work for me, as I use a monitor with no digital audio output.
