I had similar experience with a specific DAC before. But the symptom is more critical. Noise happened even on 44.1k over USB. I checked all aspects including software and hardware, cables and power but all of them didn’t help. I replaced the device twice but no luck. So, I returned it.
I think, sometimes, the device is just not for you.
Guys, sorry if the answer is here among the 45 previous pages.
I've bought a D30 Pro because it was a big discount few days ago.
Then I was searching what DAC inside, found 4 Cirrus Logic CS43198. If I go to the spec here, the DAC has a SINAD at -115dB. Ho Topping can achieve something higher in their equipment? Is there because Topping using each DAC in mono and only for one side of the signal?

Yep. They are summing outputs of each mono DAC chip part for better performance. Some dongles have two of those chips, this desktop class product features four, for superlative performance compared to even the best CS43198 dongle-type device.
I live in the Philippines and I bought it from shopee, it's kinda like aliexpress where items are shipped directly from china. There was a seller who sold it for 16000 php ~330 dollars, then I used some coupons I had which brought it down to 320
My D30 Pro was defective and was eventually returned to Toppng. The shop will let me know if the cause is known.
Can you tell me the first 4 digits of the D30 Pro serial number you received? (feg. 2011, 2012)

So I just discovered something, when the D30pro is set to RCA+XLR out which enables both outputs at the same time, I get really bad distortion from the RCA out. But when set to RCA out only, the distortion completely goes away. Is that something to be worried about or is that something that is not uncommon with DAC's that can output both XLR and RCA at once?

Received my D30 pro today from Apos Audio, the packaging is damaged, as if's torn apart by a gorilla. As I inspect further I noticed a scratch on the shell, probably caused by a knife or scissor. This package is obviously opened by someone else in a brutal way
