I updated the firmware and the pop issue is
almost gone for me. Although, as the user above me pointed out there are still some soft pop issues, but those don't bother me at all.
Although, I have a different issue. I will try to explain it as best as I can. Here is my full-setup if that helps:
DAC: Topping E30 (in DAC mode) connected to my PC via USB.
AMP/Preamp: JDS Atom
Speakers/Monitors: Dynaudio BM5 MK3.
Cables: Klotz AC100 with Rean connectors.
Headphones: DT 770 32ohm
The Dynaudios have a standby function, so when there is no signal for a couple of minutes, they enter in sleep mode. In the past, when I used the Fiio K3 and my motherboard's DAC, whenever I started playing sound, the speakers instantly powered on and the sound kept playing.
However, now with the E30, you can hear the switch that the speaker's entered in power-on mode (and the diode turns green), but there is no sound playing. Interestingly, after I restart the E30, the speakers start playing.
I am positive that this isn't JDS atom related issue, as I had used the atom paired with Fiio K3 and my motherboard's line out for a couple of months. The issue happens only with the E30.
@JohnYang1997 - pinging you, as this might be of importance to you. Or maybe, I am doing something wrong.
