Did you connect the second USB (power) cable to a second usb port and then to the 5v in the back of the D50 ?The D50 need 5v extra power not only the data USB cableAfter reading the great reviews here and elsewhere, I was happy to receive my Topping D50 from drop.com last weekend. After installing the drivers from the Topping website, I connected the unit to my computer with the supplied USB cord, hit the main power button, and nothing. It would not power up. The driver software dialog box said ‘no device detected.’ Drop.com told me I needed to contact the manufacturer, which I did via e-mail, in English, but they’re in mainland China, so I don’t know what or when I’ll hear back from them. Any thoughts? Thanks.
Thanks. I am out and about. I will try that when I get home. If that should work, then for the longer term (USB ports are at a premium on my laptop), would it make sense to plug the USB to barrel plug cord into the cubic wall wart electrical plug of an iPhone? That provides 5V.Did you connect the second USB (power) cable to a second usb port and then to the 5v in the back of the D50 ?The D50 need 5v extra power not only the data USB cable

Could also be some asio mess .... Check your various output settings.Hi!
Did you try to power it with a simple 5V DC wall wart, and feed it some spdif source?
Should work this way..... if not, sure there is a problem.
Good luck, mine works very well.

I would suggest what headphone amp matches your sound taste and your headphones and not so match if it matches the D50.Fortunately, I have an old powered 4-port USB hub I can dust off and use. The Topping D50 definitely outshines the Schiit Modi 2 that it’s replacing, but now I have to decide which headphone amp the D50 matches better with: my Little Dot MK III tube, or my veteran modded Headroom Home amp.
