So I should set node 0db (max) and use volume change on E70?Always adjust the volume at the final analog result, never the source’s digital data

Genelec G5 pair. So I believe its safe to use E70 in DAC only mode and control volume with Node, no risk of going 100% volume level.@Jonessön both the Blue sound and E70 use digital volume attenuation. It's unclear whether one is better than the other, but they're probably equal.
There have been reports of the E70 bugging out and resetting its volume to 100%. That's a risk with digital volume control.
What speakers are connected to the E70?
As long as the Node doesn't glitch out, yes.Genelec G5 pair. So I believe its safe to use E70 in DAC only mode and control volume with Node, no risk of going 100% volume level.
What do you mean?Edit. And why volume is lower when this E70 is connected to node at same volume level?
Volume at 25% for example (BluOS App) is louder when everything connected to node compared external dac. Wonder if my super bad toslink affect volume level? If its possible, no idea. One thats between node and e70v.As long as the Node doesn't glitch out, yes.

Maybe Amir can produce a new ranking system, velvet <------> broken glass shards.
Srboljub is from Serbia, not Romania : )I just went snowboarding with a bunch of romanians randomly on a tour, they are a stout bunch, some of them sort of reminded you of Dracula too, but actually nice guys overall.
You have spent 4.000$ on 5 different DACs with probably exactly the same SQ,totally inaudible differences,indistinguishable from each other,for what?Just got the e70 Velvet. IMO this is an Epic DAC, and so far the best DAC Topping has released to date. I like it better than my Gustard X26 Pro, my Topping D70s, the Topping D90LE, and better than the SMSL D300, or SMSL SU-9pro. Great case design, good form factor - display and features are perfect as far as I'm concerned. Under $500.00, I don't think anything can compete with this DAC. Well done Topping!
I have more than 5 systems - that and and everything else you said is based on assumptions which evaluate to false : )You have spent 4.000$ on 5 different DACs with probably exactly the same SQ,totally inaudible differences,indistinguishable from each other,for what?
I mean it's your money,you can burn them if you like,I'm totally cool with that.
But that defeats the purpose here a little,doesn't it?
(except you have 5 systems,then I stand corrected)
Glad you like it. I returned mine after 1 day. Didnt notice difference to Node N130. Did blind test to 2 friends at different time and both prefered Node for being more balanced, but at the same time said cant really hear a significant difference.Just got the e70 Velvet.

I like the idea, just make sure to do it blind. It's hard to describe how much sighted listening affects what you hear, until you've spent 10 minutes turning a knob hearing small differences that were totally imaginary...
