Highly Reliable Home Audio DAC

This DAC has received good reviews from many audio reviewers. The DAC is well made and I've never had any problems with it. If you prefer a pure delta-sigma DAC, you can't go wrong with the D70s in my opinion.

Pros
  • ♫ Selectable Output Port: The D70s has a fully balanced XLR output and an unbalanced RCA output. You can select XLR Only, RCA Only, or XLR+RCA output to accommodate different usage in multiple systems.
Cons
  • Slightly torn

Whata upgrade

I gave these 5 stars when I first got the D70s. A few months later. Nevertheless 5 stars. I stream from my desktop system through the top D10 and then through the Filo BAT30 to the D70. It's great for daily streaming and listening.

Pros
  • ♫ D70s adopts second generation XMOS XU216 16-core processor, USB supports up to PCM32bit/768kHz, native DSD512 and MQA decoding. DAC better than 4497: THD+N D70 is 0.0001% (-120dB), which already exceeds the official AKM specification for AK4497 (-116dB).
Cons
  • Odds Set

It's about execution.

I have many DACs and will likely have more in the future. This DAC outperforms most of my other R2R/DS DACs, some of which cost over 4x the price of this DAC. At this price this DAC is better than my SMSL M400, my Denafrips Ares II and my Topping D90. If that DAC sounds anything but great on your system, then the problem is with the rest of the signal chain in your system, but definitely not with that DAC. /OS is of secondary importance, but the actual design and implementation makes a DAC…

Pros
  • ♫ Topping D70s MQA DAC: Uses 2x AK4497, 1x AK4118 receiver. D70s uses CPLD. The USB input supports MQA decoding. It has multiple USB Bluetooth IIS Coax OPT-AES inputs. Remote control.

Effortless Organic Sound

The D70S is one of the most transparent and musical components I have ever heard. To this day I can't see any coloring, additive or subtractive. Everything you hear through the D70S is as perfect a reproduction of the original performance as the recording and its media can convey. If other DACs have sounded stereotypically digital: harsh, metallic, mechanical, flashy or flashy, try this one. Despite the lack of stereotypical digital artifacts, the D70S can sound as hard and ruthless as the…

Pros
  • Receiver & Amplifier
Cons
  • No Shape Required
