For intermodulation distortion:
We see here that Topping DX7 does better than Topping D10 by around 5 dB.
That should start to get audible, isn't it?
You're joking, right?

Sorry, I really don't know and was just asking. Answer please if you know.
Use driver 4.47 (Dx3 pro) instead.Hello,
New D10 owner here, connected to a Win7 PC. Currently running firmware 1.02, driver 4.14.
Apologies if this was covered earlier, but is it normal not to see a 32bit option in this drop-down?
Topping's own Control Panel shows this:
you know, I've very similar measurement of my new project aka "USB dongle DAC", in my case THD+N looks like your DX3 if I do not use THD_Comp tweak, otherwise it looks like D10. To be honest, I much easier got <-120dbA and .0003% within -3db..-30db@real planar HP load 42ohm with AK4490, without any THD_comp tweaking. Probably, the main reason is an incredible low out_of_band noise of AK4490, in fact, there is nothing to filter at all. After 9038q2m I see a lot of wideband noise + 3 tall needles 50/75/100MHz. And my output stage opamp near to clipping behaves totally differently vs AK4490 with the same opamp and load. Looks like I'll have to add one more dedicated opamp for I/V+filtering to get at least .0003% of THD+N, and it will be a challenge(PCB 20x47mm).Here are the updated measurements for the D10:

Last mod (AVCC).
Much, much better than original Sabre variant (Op amp only) or LDO (original state).
Natural sound, wider stereo base, much clear mids, hi mids & bass (bass is low, powerful, but transparent).
Vref is possible to leave as is (mod actually is unnecessary).

Krunok, did you see a measurement for "bass is low, powerful, but transparent " ever?
the place where I from have a legend about moldavian gypsies believe that the bass is low on even days, but on odd it is sour ))
Has anyone else noticed the same on their D10? If true, then I think I'd rather stay on 4.14.What I noticed about the 4.47 driver was that it brought down the bass impact a lot on my HD6XX or It felt like it did, the mids get pushed a touch brighter on 4.47, to my ears. So it's been eating at me for a few days to go back and try the 4,14 driver.... and yeah, a fuller sound, or maybe I just like the sound of the 4.14 better?

That's what I thought, too. That previous comment confused me.

It means nothing to anyone. Prove it by demonstrating measurements, since you are on a forum with a scientific background.This statement is based on knowing what drivers do and how they work.
