    Topping DX3 pro + and Sennheiser HD 600 Hi-gain vs Low-gain.

    i find the high gain on my dx3pro+ to sound ever so slightly more vshaped than in low gain. definetly more treble emphasis but also a slightly deeper soundstage. i only use high gain with my 600ohm earbuds and low gain with everything else. low gain on this unit sounds less agressive to my ears.

    Topping DX3 pro plus: noise in stand-by, possible grounding issue?

    mine is having a constant 50hz hum that disappears when touching the unit. even when its only plugged directly to the wall without having attached usb or other inputs. might be a problem of my appartement tho.

    In 2023, Topping DX3 Pro + vs EX 5 vs G5

    i own a dx3 pro+ and the g5 and the g5 is noticebly worse in soundquality. it is not bad at all for a portable, but the dx3 has much more authority from top to bottom, more air between the instruments and a much deeper soundstage with sharper positioning. neither dac nor amp are just what the...

    Topping G5 Review (Portable DAC & HP Amp)

    must have been defective, as to my ears the dx3+ pushes an extrorinary powerfull bass. the g5 to my ears seems just a hair less powerfull if even.

    Topping DX3 Pro+ Review (DAC & Headphone Amp)

    I found out that it was my cabel tv. I do not know what this has to do with the power supply of my flat, but if I detache it from my tv the buzz is gone, (even when the tv is not connected to power)

    Topping DX3 Pro+ Review (DAC & Headphone Amp)

    got my dx3 pro+ yesterday, and it seems to have a humming issue. once it is plugged into power and nothing else connected, I can hear a low hum with any of my headphones. The humming lowers in volume any time i put my hand on the topping. if i use it either via bt or usb, the humming will...

    Topping DX3+, DX5 or something different for listening at very low volume levels?

    thx for your advice! 1-2 ohms output impedance with non ba phones are no problem, as you said. with multi ba iems it can be a different story. Could my ifi ie-match solve the noise problem? it brings impedance down and you need to crank the volume up, when using it.

    Topping DX3+, DX5 or something different for listening at very low volume levels?

    I am looking for a dac/headphone amp combo. i do not need any dsp or eq and prefer a flat neutral sound, so the dac/amp should not offer colorations in any way. I will use it with my oppo pm2, Audeze LCD-i3 and akg k872 as well as with multi ba-iems (64 audio u8). Therefore I will need an output...

    What is it that makes the 598's sound so much better than every other headphones I've tried?

    I own the 598s for many years and did not grab them in the last five, as i love some other phones more. when i got them, i compared them to the k701 to find out, which i like better. i found out, that while the akg has an expansive soundstage to the sides, the 598 was far more narrow, but in...
