Natural and organic, or just natural? Sorry, could not resist.
So, it sounds like flatulence?

Totally agree. Pianos, guitars and voices are perfect for me. Bass is weaker than on d50 though.
Please let us know how it compares to those!Interesting. I actually find the bass on my D50 just a touch bloated or flabby (for want of a better expression) in my setup compared to some other DACs, so that might be a good thing . I have the D70 on order to compare to my D50 and Qutest.
I'd like to know if measurements can change using a better power supply. I don't understand if that' s is psychoscience or a matter of fact and measurements. And if possible if for some reason the actual power supply is enough for this product.
I'm quite new to audiophile and I don't like cryogenic cables and ethernet audio grade apparatus.
This site seems to me a lot into scientific side.
Thanks in any case and be patient. I have a lot to learn.

This is why subjective reports are confusing. D50 = simplified/lower-fi, but somehow more "energy" ?I received my D70 last week, I previously used a D50.
First thing I noticed was the much better instrument placement and separation. Then the different tone but I was a little disappointed as there was not a BIG difference as I hoped (all this for 2x the price?).
After a few days I put D50 back and then I realized the main difference: instrument tone + all those instrument “nuances” that D70 extracts from the record were missing. With D50 everything sounds way... simplified and lower-fi so to speak.
There is no going back to D50 for me, that’s for sure. Anyone looking for a like new D50 ?
On the negatives side: I think it is a bit “soft" sounding. Playing Jazz at the Pawnshop I miss some of the “energy” I heard on that record with D50. Well.. I suppose I can live with that
Of course these are 100% subjective impressions so.. you know, may not match your experience.

Sure it will.But don't worry - it's very possible someone here will tell you soon:
- you know nothing until comparing them blind
- all DACs cheaper than 1000 USD sound the same
- and you lost your money because Khadas Tone Board is good enough and it's impossible Topping D70 sounds noticeably better
I saw this on forum a thousand times. You trust somebody, then another come saying this or this sounds like shit, etc, etc. That is why measurements exist here: there is no place for opinion with objective performance.
So, nothing relevant from a scientific point of view, I regret. Anybody still may say anything they want about any unit. I guess Head-Fi or others are better places for this kind of "debate".D50 and D70 measurements are both great, but sound is much different) So we need subjective description of sound - bass, mids, treble and so on.

If you're talking about D50 (no S) vs D70: Both reviews are not comparable, as these units have been tested with different instrumentation and tests, apart from SINAD uptated later by @amirm .Can we see differences in scientific way in case of d50 and d70? How co compare two dacs? How to choose what to buy? They are not equal for sure, but I personally can't see differences in measurements except IMD.
