So with lockdown and working from home I need something to pass the time lol.
My Gilmore Lite Mk2 has two inputs and a switch which toggles between them.
I am running the Topping D10 as a transport it will output to its optical and Coax at the same time.
.
So Laptop USB -> Topping D10 -> optical cable -> Topping D30 -> Gilmore Lite mk2
Topping D10 -> Coax cable -> Modi Multibit -> Gilmore Lite mk2
Then I flip the switch on the front of the Gilmore Lite mk2 while music is playing.
To my ears the D30 just sounds fuller. With crazy bassy songs the bass is fuller and has more slam on the D30(FLAC just Youtube for comparison):
Stuff with more dynamics the D30 just sounds cleaner:
The thing is tho these are small differences. The headphones I am wearing make a much bigger difference.
