Review on Topping ES9038Q2M OPA2134 Amplifier Decoder by Kevin Mills

Super DAC! I can't be happier. First Comments; On Windows 10 it works straight away. No drivers, so dedicated software. Just plug in and get started. All you have to do is make sure your device's advanced settings match the quality of the music you're playing through it. Also note that this (or any other) DAC will improve sound quality if you already have good speakers (or headphones). I think) is connected to a suitable external amplifier and your audio is a high quality lossless recording, or at least CD quality. I think you will be wasting your money just listening to low quality mp3s or streaming. personal computer Music just sounds great compared to the standard Realtek PC audio output found on most computer motherboards. The only comment I will make is that the DS10's front panel display shows the setting you configured in Windows, not the actual audio file format DS10 always shows 192 (PCM) whether the original music is 44,100kHz , 48 kHz, 96 kHz, etc. was recorded. This is the only connection format I want to use, so I can't comment on DSD music sources. I'm still extremely happy with this little inexpensive DAC.
