About this deal

Fonctionne très facilement en Bluetooth (mais juste en 48 kHz...) en délivrant une puissance modeste mais plutôt correcte pour 20-25 M2. I'm thinking about pairing the D30 with something like the project amp box s2 (open to suggestions though). The main reason for doing this would be if it could offer me better audio, driving both (low budget) headphones and (sorta decent) bookshelf speakers. Long term higher upgrade potential is nice, but definitely not crucial for me. wow this is crazy... are you running it with analogous inputs? when i turn the da-9 beyond 60 the hiss gets so loud that you'd even hear it vom 20 meters away The volume goes up to 70, which starts to hiss at 61+ or so, but even running it at "37" on 4 ohms speakers at a distance of ~3 meters already filled the living room with unconfortably loud sound (while hissing already disappearing between a distance of 20-25 cm - so no problem just controlling the volume on the computer) One Thing I noticed anyway is with some "trash pop" music the mids get woofy and smear, but I don't understand if it is related to the creation of resonance with the furniture where I placed the speakers; I am going to try some support to decouple the speakers from the furniture.

This subreddit is for the budget minded audiophile that wants to grow out of soundbars, boomboxes, mini systems, portable bluetooth, lifestyle speakers, and PC peripheral branded audio solutions. Speakers can only play what the amplifier feeds it, so if they are of sufficient quality, and not so old that they have started to literally start to fail (crossover parts on the majority of consumer speakers have a built-in countdown timer as a consequence of costs saving, they use electrolytic capacitors instead of film capacitors which last longer and have a higher tolerance of variation than any electrolytic capacitor). On top of that, the unit seems to have a rather significant level of hiss when not playing anything. I'm using the optical input and the noise is the same regardless of whether or not the cable is even plugged in. I'm surprised they don't just stop the output amp when no data is coming in, since this is a class D amp and could theoretically not output any noise in that case. With the loxjie at 4 ohms and 100 dba i'd be running at 20 watts, with the distortion starting to rapidly rise at 40 watts.Who controls the past controls the future. Who controls the present controls the past.” Eric Blaire aka George Orwell I'm planning on getting a Loxjie A30 (when I can eventually find one). I understand this utilises the AK4493 DAC chip which is good but not great. Audiophonics is a company created in 2005, specialized in the distribution and sale of Audio, HiFi, Do It Yourself and electronic products on the internet. To propose qualitative products at the best price, here is the philosophy that guides us every day. We put a strong emphasis on being the first to offer innovative products that match the expectations of the market and customers.

The entire Loxjie A30 benefits from a careful design, based on components known for their audio quality. While the A30 features the very good Infineon MA12070 amplifier chip, the A30 also includes a 24-bit ESS ES9023 DAC with an integrated 2Vrms AOP. The latter uses HyperStream architecture and Time Domain Jitter Eliminator technology to significantly reduce jitter and provide a dynamic range of 112dB. the loxjie seems to have a bit more "warmth?" by which i mean higher output volume in the lower mids. The difference is so noticeable that i could tell even though switching speaker cables takes 1-2 minutes every time. Since the sound is really clean and analytic, i need to find some nice warm sounding speakers to go with it, as clean sounding speakers with such a clean amp is probably too much. edited) my focusrite usb interface seems to have a decent amount of hiss, so it overtakes the amp hiss at a volume of 31 (of 70), but this is still plenty.Very poor. If you need to hear sound you can use it otherwise, you should get a proper high performance headphone amplifier. when i turn up the music for 5-10 minutes, maybe once per day or sometimes once per week it shouldn't sound bad... Another newbie wanting to revive this thread as I am in a similar situation as OP. Basically I am trying to decide on if getting a D30+power amp is worth the extra money over just getting an A30? I'm pretty new to passive speakers but wanted to give it a try as my rokit 6's had terrible hiss and trafo humm. (no, it was not a ground loop)

To suit your listening style and your audio system, the A30 offers no less than 7 preset equalizers as well as a customizable equalizer. The bass and treble levels can be adjusted in 1dB steps from -10dB to +10dB. Complete connection system I used analogies in the hopes that it might be a little bit easier to understand what steps to take.

Room: the left one will be with it's edge against the wall and 35 cm away from the corner. right speaker will only be 35 cm away from the wall with 2 screens in between. Lastly I believe just getting A30 is also an option, but I cannot find A30 operate as DAC with FIXED RCA output to the Edifiers, so that's a challenge?

Loxjie D30 is a budget-oriented, all-in-one device that can decode PCM up to 32bit-768kHz and DSD up to DSD512, natively, via USB. The highlights of the audio stage include ESS Technology’s ES9068AS premium-tier DAC, Texas Instruments’ OPA1612, and two low-phase crystal oscillators. I am including a list of specs and features below. Testing the Loxjie A30 put a smile on my face and landed it happily on my recommended list. You are getting restaurant quality meal at fast food prices.Loxjie provided us with some basic information about the audio board of the device. The device is equipped with ESS Technology’s premium-tier DAC, ES9068AS. As for the HP amplifier stage, Loxjie used Texas Instrument’s OPA1612, which we often see in many different devices. These two main components are assisted by XMOS’ second-generation USB controller, 2 low-phase crystal oscillators, and Loxjie’s special low-noise power stage. The D30 supports PCM up to 32bit-784kHz and DSD up to DSD512 thanks to the second-gen XMOS USB controller. The ES9068AS DAC supports MQA natively and the unit runs driverless in MAC and Linux systems. For Windows, you’ll need this official driver to fully utilize the device. Do note that SMSL’s latest USB driver also works with the D30 and can be used without any issues. Hi... anyone else had the issue where it just starts playing static noise instead of whatever it is you're playing? The D30 is quite expensive, but from my understanding reading review it has superior sound quality, better than MX5 (?). yes my soundcard has some slight hiss too, but there's no ground-loop going on as i have this isolator against that
