They should have also added an I2S output to make it a "complete" package.
Yeh, we have had a few. If you ever start "hearing your computer" through your DAC/system, then Toslink is the best way to avoid it. Alas, many systems lack a Toslink input in which case you can use a "bridge" like D10/D10s to get it.Good to see another great, affordable option. What is the advantage of feeding another DAC downstream of this one using one of the Toslink outputs? Is there an existing discussion/primer of this elsewhere on ASR?

Do you need spdif inputs? Remote? Only you can answer this right? for the dac itself, I would expect them to be very close. E30 is prettier I find...So, this or topping E30?
Are both DACs operable in this configuration, thereby doubling the channel count (2Ls and 2Rs)? Or does only use this DAC as an expensive converter to the better-isolated Toslink cable?Optically isolating the second DAC to break ground loops. It's only relevant if you have an issue with ground loops.
A brand new TotalDAC V2?This is becoming boring, it's time to see some bad measuring DACs.
The answer is no, your computer won't see anything else than the 2 channel USB interfaceAre both DACs operable in this configuration, thereby doubling the channel count (2Ls and 2Rs)? Or does only use this DAC as an expensive converter to the better-isolated Toslink cable?
I may be confusing "bridging" with "chaining" DACs together, e.g. adding two more channels for subwoofers.

He tests other attributes- what would your proposed tests entail?Or a test bench update to make sure high SINAD DAC aren't faltering at other metrics. There should always be room for improvements.
Agreed. Some D10 and early E30 units had issues with inverted polarity. I can't recommend this product in good conscience until I see a polarity measurement.Or a test bench update to make sure high SINAD DAC aren't faltering at other metrics. There should always be room for improvements.
none for now, what about you?what would your proposed tests entail?

There should be a thread for test-bench update proposals.
Going the ip based network audio streaming route is never "just package a little WiFi antenna" It's a whole different can of worm. Your comment should read "Now if an asian based manufacturer could manage to just package a well performing streamer for less than 500$" I would put a thumbs up to this.Tremendous. Now, if they could just package a little WiFi antenna....
