Wow! performance and value.

Excellent sound and price. Reviews about it were correct, it does a good job of decoding using the AK 4493 DAC chip. You can turn off the beautiful orange display. It comes with a remote control! It's really great if you want to connect to your stereo as you can control volume and filters. I can't tell any real difference in the filters as they seem to be clipping beyond my hearing (and probably everyone else's too). It comes with a USB cable and power cord, which is a nice touch alongside the…

And the E30 can fix the output level to the maximum, so it can work as a pure DAC
Cons
  • Not fashionable

Pros
  • Case - E30 supports USB, optical and coaxial inputs covering many commonly used cases such as computer, OTG mobile phone, digital player and media player, TV and set-top box
Cons
  • . There are new competitors

Amazing and clear sound (also serial number 2004+!)

TLDR; After a lot of research, Topping E30 is a great DAC and found some polarity issues. I took a chance to buy now and it turned out that there are no polarity issues, this is a serial number 2004+ 😊 I spent probably a month deciding which DAC to buy. I spent hours debating whether I needed a balanced XLR for future upgrades. I've compared Geshelli, SMSL, and Topping offerings, which appear to be similar with different feature sets. Then I came across the E30. I've been patiently waiting for
