Topping d30 paired with Magni 3?

[Samurai_Warrior]

I own the Monoprice m1060s and i'm looking at getting a dac and amp. So I have some questions: First, Does the Topping d30 make any loud pops on startup? Second , Does the Magni 3 make any loud pops on startup? And if they do make any pops can you please explain in-detail about them. Third, Would there be anything wrong with pairing a d30 with a Magni 3? Forth, Is there any problems or concerns I should be aware of? Thanks

Does the Magni 3 make any loud pops on startup? Would there be anything wrong with pairing a d30 with a Magni 3?

From the Magni 3 product description: "With its built-in time-delayed start-up and instant shut-down, there’ll be no glitches or pops through either headphones or speakers, either."

As far as running a Magni 3 / D30 combo I'm pretty sure I saw a couple of posts over at Head-Fi that gave that particular pairing a good write-up.

Amir did say he was going to publish a review of the A30 vs Magni 3 "soon;" I'm waiting for that one myself!

As I blew all my money on a Focal Elear, budget for a decent headphone amp is rather limited, so this comparison would come in handy

I have to finish the review of one loaned gear first and then I will do some Magni 3 related review.

I am debating between the Magni 3, the A30, and an O2 so am eagerly looking forward to some reviews

I am also in the same situation. I am planning on getting one within the month, but can't decide.

Also, the Topping A50 has also kindled my curiosity. If the A30 measures well, I might try to get more info on it. Till now, all I know is that it will have less than 1 ohm resistance, might have a weaker output than A30 and will come out in Q3 or Q4 of this year.
