If you are looking for a absolute steal this Topping D 70S is loaded with the latest Xmos processor
dual Femto clocks , AKM dual 4497 latest MQA ,linear power supply, 8 power regulators and big Nichicon filtering capacitors, and many more top parts,Which sound very natural and very much like a good R2R dac hard to believe ,but the video below is pretty spot on ,and doesnot even have the fuse upgrade. How they stuffed all this quality technology in here for $650 is a ? This is better then Toppings then top d90 MQA dac ,with dual 4497 dacs vs 1 this even has better specs.
use a decent power cord ,and usb cable that applies to Any dac,and to truly raise the bar
buy the synergistic Orange fuse ,small, 500 Ma, slow blow and instal with writing Reading left to right facing down,- direction of current flow since the fuse is sideways , this dac I like better and I have had a couple tube dac black ice, for sure better then Denafrips arias mk2 R2R very close to pontus-2 vs even dacs like Schiit Yggdrasil which I owned and sold to neutral for my taste ,this Topping is more natural and not rolled off, it. Has filters 3 &4 lowest distortion over 20 khz ,filter 3 is standard, if your system needs a slight treble boost then filter 4 , buy the fuse same time and instal give it a minimum of 8-10 days ,just let play ,and no need to ever turn off , and Apos audio order the faster shipping $13 I received it in 4 business days DHL express . Most parts inside are from Japan
designed in China ,if this was U.S made $2k , I am shocked to say the least ,and this was just for a back up system ,but sounds Audiophile quality - Best Buy of the year !! P.s For $663 with express shipping
45 day return, and 2 year warranty
