Topping DX1 (from Apos): [ Ссылка ]
Topping products don’t usually get me too excited. However, this new little desktop DAC/Amp, the DX1, perked my interest. If it can deliver the clean sound that Topping is known for for only $99–Well, that would be a pretty good bargain. I’m glad to report that it delivers, and it easily beat out anything comparable I had on hand. Thanks to Apos for sending it out for me to try.
***A bit of a disclaimer: Shortly after I filmed this review I saw that new little iFi DAC/Amp had released… stay tuned for that one. Also, of course I still love the Cayin RU6, but I mainly just use it as a DAC and it is twice the price.
