New Topping D90SE DAC

Thanks for your thoughts SRKBEAR.

I agree that with a DAC that should be the case.  But some people might differ and I do respect their opinion. The chain of source to ear has many steps and each one tweeks the sound a bit. 

 

Pretty complicated really and people have fun researching and trying different things. 

 

Otherwise it wouldn't be a hobby. 

I did order the new D90SE and now recieved the FedEx shipping information. 

When I complete a review I will post my impressions. 

BTW i am listening thru B&W 803d3 and mc452 amplifier for the mid to upper frequencies. 

Okay, 

Topping D90SE arrived at hooked up. 

Initial impressions.....Clear, Open, Detailed.

Loving it so far. 

So have now spent a full month living with the new topping D90SE. 

It truly a step above all other DACS i have owned.  Zero noise, clear details and you can hear every detail of the voice and the decays of the instruments.

Sounds great on jazz and other recordings that are well done. 

The biggest difference has always been the quality of the recording and the D90SE will expose that.  It doesn't cover up bad recordings,  that tells me it's not coloring the sound. 

Thanks to everyone for their comments and impressions. 

I'm still very happy with my D90SE. 

I have stopped spending money on upgrades,  at least for now. 

Mc452 took a few dollars out of the audio budget for sure. 

Just kicking back and finding more music that sounds enjoyable to listen to. 

It's a lot cheaper than constantly buying and selling equipment too.😁
