Is it possible to update the firmware using the USB input on the amp itself?
I think it is. If you look at the download section in topping site you'll see firmware updates for other dacs (e.g. E50 that does have just a USB B input).Is it possible to update the firmware using the USB input on the amp itself?
Yes.Is it possible to update the firmware using the USB input on the amp itself?
DX3Pro+ better (and cheaper) than either of those.On paper
For headphones
Mx5 or ex5 would be better ?
Much better?DX3Pro+ better (and cheaper) than either of those.
No updates from Topping since Jan 28:Hi all, is there any update on the high-frequency noise issue? cc @gr-e & @Murkas
I ordered the Topping MX5 in December from Aoshida Hifi on Amazon Canada. Unfortunately they were unable to get units from Topping, and eventually contacted me on January 11th to request that I cancel my order. They eventually gained stock maybe a couple weeks or so ago, but I haven't reordered yet.
I've been obsessively checking this thread (and its duplicates) since the beginning, so of course I've heard about the noise issue. Because of that, I've been holding off on reordering. I think I will eventually, but my question is how long to wait. I'd really rather not deal with returns or firmware updates, especially because I have a Mac. I'm interested in the MX5 to have a low-noise headphone amp with digital volume control for IEMs, so speaker noise would defeat the point a bit.
Many thanks!
Thanks for the update. I reached out to them as well on the 25th to ask when they thought a fix might be implemented, but I got no response at all.No updates from Topping since Jan 28:
I wonder what they consider "a longer time". Maybe I'll just bite the bullet and buy it, since it seems some people haven't had an issue. I'm not satisfied with my current unit.our initial estimate is that this is a tricky issue, and we may need a longer time to deal with it
How can I use this solely as a DAC or is this not possible? I have TRS to XLR cables and wanted to connected to Loxjie P20?
Yes you can. Both balanced and unbalanced inputs are available.Thanks for the fast response, does this mean I can connect a DAC to this and use it as sole headphone amp?
