Absolutely it's low. Too low and simply shifts the onus to the source which in my opinion is a cop out. Great product, but way too low input impedance for any type of amplifier, be it pre/main or HP.
There are plenty of other sources other than just a DAC, something the kids these days seem to forget.
Give us the same low impedance as my first non-LDAC version, slighty more power for 300/600 ohms headphones, better 50mV performance for IEMs and retaining the fantastic 3.5 mm output + another 6.35 one for headphones (much more convenient duality instead of using adapters). No need for balanced connections, just a truly SE endgame in an AIO form.
@JohnYang1997 Make it happen and you would be my (and many others') hero.
@JohnYang1997 Any chance of something similar with Wifi input? Please?
I want that BLUE !!!Hey! The people who need more gain, here's the solution with +18dB gain! 300mW at 300Ohm!View attachment 77424

Reality is, I've got a Schiit Magni 3, works fine. Wonder if there is an audible difference. Just listened to some YouTube videos via the Magni hooked into an ACER Aspire 5. Suspect the Topping would sound the same playing back Lady Gaga or Gustav Mahler.

AB.@JohnYang1997
Apologize if I missed it, but will the Power Amps be classic AB? Or D? Or?
If AB, please include a pot idle current adjustment - a nice feature (like the L30 output switch) that lets us tweak it high for those who 'listen low' and lower for those that 'listen high'..
Might be nice to put a few $$ into faster outputs than typical and save it back on aluminum and size..
Faster switching for lower losses..What's faster outputs
Wow, those are beautiful! Any timeline on when these alternate color models would be released and if there will be a matching E30 color variant to go along with them?Hey! The people who need more gain, here's the solution with +18dB gain! 300mW at 300Ohm!
At 78 y/o, I don't consider myself a "kid" - and my only source is a DAC!
It's £120 at Amazon.Apos Audio maybe
That would need a DAC as well, so that would be a different product altogether.@JohnYang1997 Any chance of something similar with Wifi input? Please?
Yes, all that's missing is the streamer bit. Lots of ways to do that, but something matching or built into the DAC would be neater.I can't speak for the M500 ... that's grossly diminishing returns territory for me.
The E30 is really a stellar product, like a 0 ohm resistor .... totally out of the way .... totally transparent. From purely a DAC standpoint, it will run neck and neck with M500 IMO.
E30 and L30 are cutting edge devices. $260 for a DAC / amp of this performance level is amazing IMO. THX amps alone were going for $400 last year! L30 is throwing up THX numbers at $130 .... lol .... great times for consumers looking for this stuff.
