Hi.
I'm new to the Forum.
I have a BB1 and I'm trying to get "HiFi" out of it (!). So I have bought a fairly expensive DAC the Topping EX5 and I want to play the BB1 through it to my amp and speakers.
I can link the EX5 to the BB1 via Bluetooth and it sounds ok/good, but I want to link it via USB where I hope it will sound better/best.
I have tried the "Turn Headphones On" with the USB cable connected to the EX5 but the headphone symbol stays white and there is no connection established. The Vention DAC recommended on the BB1 website pages did work, but the sound, especially the bass, isn't good.
The debug text for the failed connection attempt follows below.
All help or suggestions gratefully received.
