What a difference in favor to the new firmware !! A fuller sound !

[artem_melnyk]

Hello. What if I accidentally installed the firmware from one device to another and it stopped working?

[COLDMKULTRA]

New firmware is a substantial improvement !

[angusflood]

Surprised at how much better in every way, the new firmware is, in every track. Tested again through hifi system, and even bigger difference. Thank you so much for posting.

I downloaded the new FW, but.... first, how do I check which version I have now? Second, how do I upgrade?

I compared two E30s in the same lot but your
There was no clear difference like the video footage.

[milosevicbojan]

Definitely better, old firmware sound like you reverse phase, no bass just sharpness and deviation in the image

[niesfisch]

hi, you said the polarity issue is only valid for speakers. i only use the dac connected to the l30 headphone amp..i want to connect the source via optical cable. do i get problems because of the phase problem? it already has the latest firmware, but as you said it only fixes usb. thanks in advance

[eidrefhince]

as you mentioned that there is a problem in coax and optical input so it is not good to connect in cd player?

[SahinurUK]

Is this playing via USB? And do you notice the same improvement over the other inputs?

[jimstewart]

Do you think the E30 has better sound than the quad dac on the LG g7 phone. I'm not sure if I want to pull the trigger on a dac for the atom amp I just bought. Thanks for any help you can give.

I want to use it with my Samsung tv for optical to analog audio converter. Does it make better sound for my sony hifi system. Because my hifi system does not have optical input options. I never use a DAC before. I am already buy a cheap converter but it does not give louder sound. please give me your advice.

mykeldg thanks for your test! I want to order the E30 but I’m a bit afraid to receive one unit with the last firmware. How did you do your firmware downgrade? Was it simple? Thanks in advance ;)

[ROGERDATTT]

Would you recommend this over the modi 3?

[zzzipo]

How you can describe the difference? Its better now? With new firmware sound more interesting
