I’m soon to be making a decision, and I’d like the help of those more knowledgable then myself.
The choice is between the new Topping D10 Balanced DAC + SMSL SH8S headphone amp.
Or the new Topping EX5 DAC/amp.

Topping EX5 https://audiosciencereview.com/foru...ex5-review-dac-and-headphone-amplifier.24341/
I’m not wanting the best figures for purposes of bragging rights, I’m just after a product(s) to sit in between my PC and a pair of headphones (Sennheiser HD600) and be transparent to the source.
I’m currently leaning to the EX5, but is there anything it can’t do, or can’t do as well as the others.
I’ve had separate windows open for all 3 reviews, flipping back and forth between them, and I think the EX5 looks good enough, but I have enough humility to realise that I may well be missing something.
Comments please. Many thanks.
