@amirm :
Thank you for making me aware of the Topping devices.
I searched the Shenzeaudio site but cannot get a definitive clarification to the question :
- is there a Topping DAC (with the usual digital ins : USB/SPDIF/BT LDAC) which also has a true Balanced headphone amp outputs ?
They have some DACs featuring 4pin XLR and/or 4.4mm headphone output sockets which are traditionally for Balanced headphones.
Sadly, Topping do a very poor job at making it clear in their product description/specs whether the Headphone amp is truly Balanced or not.
Most seem to be just Single Ended amps with XLR or 4.4mm sockets for convenience only.
Being as knowledagble as you are in the Topping products :
Can you please help clarify this and point us to the specific Topping products which have a true Balanced Headphone amplifier (and not just physical output sockets which 'look' like they may be Balanced) ?
Failing that :
Could you suggest such a DAC/HPA device which is in the class of Topping as far as spec and price range ?
Thank you very much.
