At least we'll get it before Massdrop ships out :')Also hopped on the Aliexpress Sale-train. Will see how long it takes to arrive. 167€ + taxes, not too bad imho.
I need DAC and Amp
Sorry if this has been asked before. Has anyone looked at the quality of the D50's volume control. How does it perform when directly connected to active speakers or a power amplifier?
Thanks a lot
Welcome to the forum. I have not tested the A30 but from reports, it will be similar to the amp inside to DX7s. So if that is your choice, go with the DX7s as it is a much nicer/larger unit with internal power supply and such.I'm pretty new in this stuff, can you help me? I need DAC and Amp and now i choose between Topping DX7s or Topping D50 + Amp (really don't know what will be better for D50, A30 maybe?
Thanks.
AKG K712 Pro, also planning to buy Beyerdynamic dt 990 pro. Actually I have not decided yet what DAC/AMP to buy, my price range is 300-400$Which headphone do you have?
The AKG has a 60 ohm impedance so not the best fit to DX7s/A30. Hang in there if you can while I review more headphone amps to see what I can unearth.AKG K712 Pro, also planning to buy Beyerdynamic dt 990 pro.
Yeah sure. Thanks a lot.Hang in there if you can while I review more headphone amps to see what I can unearth
Received message from "Hi-Fi College Store" on Aliexpress, what's weird is that it does say there is plenty of stock I don't know what the problem isAlso hopped on the Aliexpress Sale-train. Will see how long it takes to arrive. 167€ + taxes, not too bad imho.

HI
Thank you for your purchase.
Your order payment is successful.
But it needs to wait until April 20 before the goods are shipped.
For some of us we are very sorry.
Can you add more time?
Inconvenience to you, please forgive me.
Okay this message is new, yes. "Please kindly note that D50 is short now , factory accepts reservation , the estimated delivery time is around 20th, April . If you can accept it, please extend the order proceeding time after you order it."If you read the description for the item on every AliExpress store, it should clear right up.
It should match very well, I'm using my K701 with LME49600 and with TPA6120A2 too (both having 10 ohms protective resistors) and bass was not rolling off. Actually, down to 32 ohms I've heard no issues, instead with 16 ohms headphones the difference was quite obvious on both A/B tests and also in Vrms measurements with sine and square signals.The AKG has a 60 ohm impedance so not the best fit to DX7s/A30.

LME49600 has output protection but the TPA6120 does not. Presumably that is because absolutely minimum output impedance is 8 ohms. So your warning is wise at the end. This is why I wanted to play with just lowering that output resistance rather than using a coil that is a short at DC.It was the Venus and the trick was done to LME49600, but it should work with TPA6120A2 too.
