How does the D50s product handle switching when both Bluetooth and SPDIF inputs are playing? Do you have to use the remote or does it have any auto-sensing?
Also, what do folks think about Topping vs iFi Audio for SQ?
I have the D50s, Modi Multibit, and JDS Labs EL Dac and of the three I like the D50s the most with the EL a close 2nd. Paired with the SMSL SP200 THX amp the combo is really nice with a detailed balanced sound and a touch of warmth to smooth everything out. The D50s is my first Dac with ESS chips and compared to the EL with an AK chip I like the ESS a bit more as the AK can sound more clinical at times but the EL Dac is still very good.
I've been using the D50s now for a few months and I couldn't be happier with how it sounds. I like the D50s so much I'm looking into getting the D70 sometime down the line, plus it uses the newest AK chip set which I want to try.

Volume is the only indicator that is important from the point of view of human physiology. If the usual volume level is accidentally changed when the DAC is turned on, you have a chance to deaf. Well, or burn amplification equipment or speakers.
And the rest of the displayed parameters are just delight for the ego, demonstrating the high quality of the supplied sound stream.
In previous set up with Meier StageDac i i had different fixed RCA and pre amp RCA. There the volume know didnot do anything in Fixed output. Here you suggest me to put it to 0 . Isnot this different?

I wonder how the D50S compares to the SMSL M8A V3 (ES9038Q2M DAC Chip). This is currently the DAC I have, so I am curious how the D50S compares, since it uses the same chip. I have not seen any reviews yet comparing the M8A V3 to the D50S.
