    Bought a Topping A90, exchanged it, same issue.

    I highly appreciate all of your prompt responses. The cables I included in my cables order are Argon Balanced and HD6XX Balanced for good measure. This way I could tell if it's the Argon's Balanced port or only its cable, that is, assuming the HD6XX isn't also faulty. I will report back with...
