Topping Dacs D-50, DX-7, and DX7s

If you do be sure to report back and let us know how it sounds!

You would likely need to email topping for their recommendation on ps size and rating to be safe

The Topping DACs seem to measure much better (with stock power supplies, no less) than the Schiit Bifrost and Yggdrasil. At least you’ll have a better chance at getting a properly engineered product.

I’m certainly tempted. If I ever have a need for an inexpensive DAC, the D50 will be at the top of the list.

Bought a D50 based on Amir’s measurements. I compared it extensively to the Chord 2Qute I had for a while (which connected to a PrimaLuna integrated and Tekton DI).
The Topping D50 sounds the same, but it is much much cheaper. Highly recommended at ~$200. I am using a Anker battery pack for D50. Works great.

I ordered one of the D50’s from Amazon. I’ll use an external 5V-1A (20,000mAh capacity) battery power cell as the power source I have around the house. Should be interesting. 

My Topping D50 arrived on Friday. Amazingly compact yet weighs 480g (see pics). The SQ is shockingly good. Though I need to listen to the system with it installed for a longer session to get a sense of its overall SQ, preliminary listening suggests it processes Redbook CD digital audio with better frequency response extension and control than my beloved R2R Theta DSPro Basic IIIa DAC. Battery-powered, with the DAC set for max output.
