Topping DX3 Pro+ for Desktop System

Posted by svisner on March 27, 2025 at 07:37:00:
I put this DAC into service this week for my desktop system. Too early for a detailed review. However, it does seem to provide an impressive soundstage, great flexibility, and fine detail. I confess I don't always detect differences among DACs, though some sound "grainy" to me. This one does not suffer from that characteristic and so far, I like it very much. Associated gear: Schiit Loki Mini, Rogue Perseus preamp. QSC QX3 power amp, Elac Carina 243.4 speakers with Dayton 8 inch active sub. BTW - here is a review of the Carina speakers. Audioscience (Amir) is right. Good speakers but need power. https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/elac-carina-bs243-4-review-bookshelf-speaker.34398/
