Uh huh... Here we go again.But the first moment you hear the Khadas and the Topping, you know which is better..

Yes, I know the moment you start to pick blind, you're not so sure anymore.

Thanks.Set the E30 to DAC mode instead of pre-amp mode.
400Hz at 0dBFS and using a voltmeter that has at least a 20V AC setting (better if it can also measure 200mV AC) with windows volume maxd out should read close to 2V.
When your voltmeter has 200VAC s lowest setting you cannot use this meter.
You meant I can still use my current meter, but just need to measure at highest volume of L30? You also meant measure the headphones amp output, right?.....
You can also use the meter on the output of the L30 but set the volume higher (+9dB gain) so you measure about 4.5V AC
Don't leave headphones connected !
That will be close to 5VAC in reality, and is be enough for matching volume.
Getting there....will reach a conclusion once I am done with speakers test.So have we already reached the conclusion that the previous claims of better detail retrieval via the KTB made in the E30 thread which were what lead us to this thread were based on incredibly unreliable and essentially meaningless subjective test conditions and were probably not the reality? Because that was really the point being made in that thread...me being the guy that was making the point and all that. We're now concerned with volume-matching within .002v and what have you...it seems we've shifted the parameters of what this was initially all about.
You're doing good in my book. Willing to do a proper test. I will read the conclusion with great interest. Please keep going. Although I know the answer it's still heartwarming to see your journey. (not trying to sound condescending) It's the road to enlightenment. I'm so tired of all the recent "but I can hear a difference" posts with no other agenda to troll this forum or not wanting to be challenged. o7Getting there....will reach a conclusion once I am done with speakers test.
Yeah, I suspect speakers testing won't be much different as compared to headphones, but still want to go through with it.You're doing good in my book. Willing to do a proper test.

correct, the actual value will be incorrect but at least you can see how much they deviate.
However, you cannot calculate the real percentage or dB but you can see if it is close enough for this purpose.
Measuring the line-out from the L30 is enough, should be the same as the headphone out.
KTB: 1.383 V
E30:. 1.348 V
about 0.21dB difference.KTB: 6.23 V
E30: 6.07 V.
May I know how to do such calculation? Thx!
