They did the same for me, figured it was a mistake.Apos added a free cable to my order of L30 as well because I previously purchased E30 from them.
Disastrous is a little harsh. But when oppoty knocks letthemusicburnYes, written with the usual disastrous English. Who writes copy for them?
They don't :< US only.And I don't know if Apos is shipping to EU.
RCA cables were a recent topic, maybe you find cheaper alternatives in that thread: RCA cables (again)Any sellers from EU to give free RCA cable ? Because 35€ on shenzhenaudio is not cheap for 25cm cables. And I don't know if Apos is shipping to EU.
According to @shenzhenaudio the price is $139.99. Starting from 'tomorrow'.
If you want to save 30 bucks, sure.It's available now!
Btw, are there any performance differences between D10s and E30 apart from additional features (connectors) I personally dont need at all?
Thanks for the list. I literally dont need anything E30 has over D10s. The only difference might be DAC chip performance, which again might not be audible at all.If you want to save 30 bucks, sure.
Differences are:
ES9038 Q2M VS AK4493
ability to change digital filters
a remote that chages volume, filters, turning on/off
USB powered (d10s) vs external powered(e30)
D10s can output digital spdif signal
Appearance that matches L30.
E30 is slightly smaller in size.
Yeah you just saved yourself 30 bucks.Thanks for the list. I literally dont need anything E30 has over D10s. The only difference might be DAC chip performance, which again might not be audible at all.
The looks dont matter neither as I would hide the DAC under my desk to reduce the clutter.
Indeed. Thank you!Yeah you just saved yourself 30 bucks.
Not really. I thought about it. But the compromises and performance don't make sense.Indeed. Thank you!
ps. In case you are bored regarding the future projects, how about 'A10' with no pre-amp, maybe 3,5mm headphone jack to reduce the size etc, and the price could be something around $99?
ES9038 is flagship chip if i'm not mistaken. I guess ESS chips way cheaper than AKM chips. Still AKM is used much more than ESS in dacs i don't know why.If you want to save 30 bucks, sure.

9038Pro is. 9038Q2M is a smaller, 'mobile' version of it. (still a very good chip of course!)ES9038 is flagship chip if i'm not mistaken. I guess ESS chips way cheaper than AKM chips. Still AKM is used much more than ESS in dacs i don't know why.
9038q2m is more expensive than ak4493. And 9038q2m is not the flagship but 9038pro.ES9038 is flagship chip if i'm not mistaken. I guess ESS chips way cheaper than AKM chips. Still AKM is used much more than ESS in dacs i don't know why.
