It's not the only one.Lots of dacs have the same limitation,they need C-A.Could anyone make the KTB 1 work with USB-C cables? On my Macbook it doesn't even power on. With a USB C-A and A-C adapter it works well.
No matter what C cable I use?It's not the only one.Lots of dacs have the same limitation,they need C-A.
I'm afraid so.No matter what C cable I use?
Actually, there are some C-C cables that get around that limitation somehow.No matter what C cable I use?
I had a Khadas Tone Board with a RPI4 running Volumio. It sounded the same as any other DAC, what you expect these days. The only problem was a pop in the speakers. I had to remember to turn the RPi off and on last. Some DACs mute the output during power on/off e.g. the Topping D10B.Evening - whilst I've regularly dipped into this forum for curiosity, I've now registered. I like what you do here
I'm a furniture maker, and I'm sketching out some plans for a one box streamer/amp. This Tone Board is really close to the top of the list for the DAC. The box will contain a Raspberry Pi, a DAC (tbc) and then hopefully just directly connected to a pair of power amp modules. I've looked at the Pecan Pi and like that a lot. It functions as a pre-amp, and can have a physical volume knob. But I'm in the UK, so by the time I've got it here, I'm looking at most of £500. This is 1/6th of the cost IF it'll do what I need..! I saw a few pictures in this thread from a French forum where someone does seem to have done it, but my French isn't up to it..!! I've also seen in mentioned a few times that a firmware update may activate it, but not sure if that's definitive. So. Can I use this board as a pre-amp with a physical volume control, and if not do you have any other bare board recommendations? I'm building a lovely walnut box to house it all, so bare cards are perfect. Thank you - apologies if this isn't in the right forum, but it is related to this board..!
The little I read Xiaomi's USB only supports Ethernet(?) and Flash disc for playback,don't think it's suitable for a DAC.after so many years, i love this dac.
Buuuuut.
I just purchased a xiaomi mi box s 2nd generation. when i connect it to khadas toneboard via usb, sound is muted. no sound either from tv or my amp. any ideas what might be the solution?
