Don't you mean software digital volume? That is available of course.Does D10 Balanced has hardware digital volume accessible from linux/windows driver?

You pay for functions and aestethics. More outputs costs more (XLR + RCA), more inputs costs more (SPIDF coax, optics). Bigger enclosure costs more. BT and its codecs, MQA, powersupply all add to the cost. But they all sound transparent, practically same. Don't buy D10B for amp with only RCA inputs though.Are there any audible differences or improvements between this DAC and some dacs on the absolute top of the scoreboard?
I don't care much about functions or aesthetics, but I want to see if spending extra for a D70/D90 can be a good improvement on what aspects...
It doesn't get much better than D10B. Unless you seriously need something of the bigger brothers, probably not worth the cost IMO. DACs are not complicated stack aesthetics also matter to many people though.Are there any audible differences or improvements between this DAC and some dacs on the absolute top of the scoreboard?

You are misunderstanding about the D10 series products.I thought D10s has such feature and it is builtin ESS DAC chip. Am I wrong?
thanks, but I can't find any info on the A10 balanced.
You are misunderstanding about the D10 series products.
The D10 series is a product made for a specific application and does not have the same functions as other DACs.
Choose a DAC other than the D10 series for the application you envision. That's the shortcut to making you happy.
That thread's information is false.I'm misunderstanding D10 series? So why other D10 series models have such a function?

Here on linux, access from amixer:

ok, i understand. Thx for confirmationThat thread's information is false.
And you can control volume on OS not on the DAC.
I've read whole topic on http://moodeaudio.org/forum/showthread.php?tid=1970&page=2That thread's information is false.

There are three scenarios:I've read whole topic on http://moodeaudio.org/forum/showthread.php?tid=1970&page=2
So those guys are thinking that are using hardware, but thay not?
Alsa with hwplug option does not provide any software volume.
Me too at first, but that cable looks as flexible as a Mogami so it won't be cheap.They look really good! For a moment I thought they were the ones shipped with the D10B and was mistakenly impressed
You even scaled the 3.5 to look like a 2.5, good job sir.
lol! i knew something was up.You even scaled the 3.5 to look like a 2.5, good job sir.
Les informations de ce thread sont fausses. [/CITATION]
Guilty of a crime
Assumed 4.4 mm pentaconn.Vous avez même mis à l’échelle le 3.5 pour ressembler à un 2.5, bon travail monsieur.
One reason I bought the D10 is the coax out. Used it to connect my PC to a receiver.I miss the coax in. So will many others.
lol! i knew something was up.
my question still stands though.
There are three scenarios:
1, The player has functionality to change volume via digital processing on computer.
2, The OS/driver talks to XMOS to change volume in XMOS chip which is USB bridge.
