I think I'm a bit clumsy,

is it?

I just tested CC with REW wonderful results! A bare Cosmos ADC grade A may notice the difference of ES9039Q2M MCLK 49 vs 24.5MHz, -130db(A) vs -129.4db(A)!
THD+N is also very close to APU's result -125.8db vs -126db, a bit worse due to the ADC unit has H3 -138db. The fantastic result anyway!

You find it written when the archive downloads.
To me the Topping D50 III should get to me today, then I will see that version of firmware has, in this case I update the firmware that should solve some bugs

Sorry, but I use the translator, I am Italian and I don't know if the translator has translated the English language well

But does this Topping D50 III turn on even if I don't plug the cable into the POWER input ? because I see that it turns on even if I only plug the cable into USB-C input only , how come ?
