No new cirrus-based DACs are in the works afaik.Is there any news on a successor for this DAC?
If you want to be sure, try asking JohnYang1997 in this thread:

What needs to be improved that actually makes a noticeable difference in day-to-day use?Is there any news on a successor for this DAC?
The D30 Pro is discontinued, leaving the A30 Pro as the only amplifier without a DAC, matching in appearance. Perhaps the A30 Pro will also be discontinued when it runs out of stock? or perhaps a successor to D30 Pro will be announced?What needs to be improved that actually makes a noticeable difference in day-to-day use?
I'm certain Topping can bump up the measured numbers by tweaking/improving the design but personally I would not be willing to pay for that as it would not make any difference in day-to-day use. An improvement could be adding BT which was dropped due shortages in de D30 Pro.
Perhaps replace the XLR connectors for TRS ones so there is perhaps room for more inputs. (?)
I'm afraid that A30 Pro will follow D30 Pro to oblivion. Which would be a pity for lovers of single ended powerful HP amplifiersThe D30 Pro is discontinued, leaving the A30 Pro as the only amplifier without a DAC, matching in appearance. Perhaps the A30 Pro will also be discontinued when it runs out of stock? or perhaps a successor to D30 Pro will be announced?
Even if there will be a successor to the D30 Pro i think the chances it will come in the same form factor are very low.The D30 Pro is discontinued, leaving the A30 Pro as the only amplifier without a DAC, matching in appearance.

Another example why Topping really should invest in the western market with at least one person that speaks (native) English. This line really reads like it was copied in Google translate and 1:1 pasted whatever came out.It provides a superior restored capacity with subtle details displayed.
Every doubling of Amp chips reduces the output noise by 3dB.Another one, how 8 chips can sound better ("It provides a superior restored capacity with subtle details displayed.”) than 4? Or 1? I mean, DAC should digital to analog conversion. Are they converting with 8 DACs and then combining result to somehow improve restoration of original analog signal?
in a nutshell, they are.Ok, but how? I guess, chips outputs are not just simple connected in parallel.
I'm also very curious about that, just like you.BTW
How does Topping get PCM768kHz and DSD512 out of the CS43198 DAC chip that "only" supports PCM384kHz and DSD256?
Nice devices and beautiful sound!Just got another A30Pro/D30Pro stack together today
