Eversolo DMP-A8
I've been pondering the DMP-A8; looks like a fun piece of kit, and I was curious about it's in/out configurability.
If anyone has the A8 or can answer this question I'd be grateful 😊.
Could you, for example, run one of it's digital outs, say I2S, to an external DAC, and run the XLR outs of the DAC back in to the A8's XLR in's.
My thoughts are to then take the RCA outs of the A8, using it's pre-amp section running to my integrated, but bypassing it's pre-amp and just using the power amp section? (my integrated allows this).
Would this be doable within the A8's in/out configuration software?
Thanks guys
@dandion So you have both physical connections from the A8 to your Laiv and amp? I have no output via my analog RCA to my amp (Hifi rose RA180) with the I2S connected. I soon as I remove the I2S connection, the RCA outputs works. Am I missing something? Agree that the i2S sounds the best. |
You can't have more than one output selected and working at the same time with the A8. You could use all the A8 outputs you want connected on other devices but you must toggle between them. NOTE: you should use mode 5 in the LAIV for the I2S and A8 otherwise it will reverse the channel right and left. By default, the dac reset to Laiv everyt time you turn it on/off. |
