    [Poll] What is your experience with the reliability of the Topping LA90D?

    Though Kal purchased 3 of the Pre 90 preamps for his own multi channel set up. I own the Pre 90 with extender and the E70 DAC, both of which are fine and email support direct from Topping as good as any. I wonder how many thousands of satisfied customers there are that represent the silent...

    Balanced vs unbalanced

    Benchmark don't do - good enough. Neither do they do rip-off audiophoolery.

    Balanced vs unbalanced

    Just use bell wire for your speaker cables then. Cables, can pick up interference, or radiate it.

    Balanced vs unbalanced

    Even though balanced output gives a 2/3 dB better measured SINAD in many devices tested here.

    Too silent if you like the sound of added THD. :)

    Topping E70 Stereo DAC Review

    Fine with my Quad 989 ESL's on steroids. E70 > Pre 90 > Benchmark AHB2 > Quads. The bass has never sounded better since I removed all the distortion.

    Topping Pre90 Review (preamplifier)

    Mine sounds fine with both phono input and DAC via XLR, better than my previous Bruno Putzeys Pre. Maybe Bruno's design was also 'faulty'. I had a low level hum using the phono via RCA (legacy ). Probably due to 4M interconnects, so I bought the extender for the pre and switched the connectors...

    Topping E70 Stereo DAC Review

    Bit-perfect is a nonsense term, my Audiolab M-Dac was 'bit perfect' though all 3 DAC's I have owned since sound far superior, Topping E70, SMSL M400 and Gustard.

    Topping E70 Stereo DAC Review

    That's assuming that your amp/speakers are not the weakest link in the chain. The difference between E70 and E70V is likely very little, though you only kept the V for a few hours so not much of the comparison I was hoping for.

    Master Thread: Are measurements Everything or Nothing?

    I also owned both the M400 and X16. I also think the M400 'sounded better'. I also think there is still much to be learned and proven by science about black holes. Neither are frequencies that 'cannot be heard' and so are not measured...
