No A50. If any it will be A50s. And L30 should come before that.

That's cool, eventually we'll have A90 A50s and L30 then, for comparison. Nice.
Was it? I just read the review content and didn’t search for other photos
If I'm not wrong, a Topping's preamplifier is coming soon. The design should be different (no need of current power) but I guess @JohnYang1997 is in charge, too

That would do the job as well. So can we take that as a promise then?
When we are having Topping´s attention here, I will propose Topping building
an amplifier based on Purifi module

No matching amp for D70, I'm sure D70+A90 will still look fine. Performance wise it's a very good match for sure.
That's fairSorry for that. But I'm still looking forward to a user who is willing to show us the teardown.
I can't see any EMI/ESD/overvoltage protection at the inputs, are they hidden or is it just my eyes&brain?

Looks great.
From a practical point of view though, would I hear any improvement over a DX7s or is it all beyond the threshold? If so, is the weak point of the DX7s, the DAC or the amp?

@JohnYang1997 Will L30 be 100% the same as unbalanced A90 (looks aside), or will there be other lackings as well?

He already said the goal is A90 single ended performance. So that's what they're going for. There is no production unit yet so we'll have to wait and see how good it will be
It can't be 100% the same thing though, since it will be a sized down design in a smaller case. But very similar.

Wow. very clean. I did not expect the two-piece power supply, other than that it is compact and no-bullshit.
Very well done, Topping/JohnYang. I'm placing my order right now..

I always bet on black, never even considered silver.
So, any chance of a run-down on the design topology described here? I can sort of guess what is being done, especially after seeing the 6120's in the picture. But if you are going to coin terms like NFCA and UHGF you owe it to the rest of the geeks to give us something with a bit more meat on it.
