The Topping D30, whilst decent enough sounding is not without issues. When I got mine I was dismayed to find it would rattle internally on the slightest of movement! So I had to open it up and find out what was going on. Inside I found 2 pieces of solder that had broken free from something, though on checking the circuit board closely I was not able to see where It had come from - but I did not need them causing any sort of short-circuit. Taking all apart I was able to see where the case is not that well finished and quick thrown together, to keep the price down, obviously! As for the sound, the story here is a much better one. I found the D30 to be a nicely detailed and expansive sound, and careful paring with headphone amps and headphones is advised as the sound may quickly become overly sharp and tiresome if not paired to the right equipment. I use a D10 from my pc’s usb socket, (as a USB to SPDIF converter) and go into the D30 by co-ax and then onto a Schiit Audio Asgard 2 Headphone amp, and get amazing desktop audio from this setup. So do I like the Topping D30? - yes I do, I just feel it’s time for a better built MK2 version. With that in mind, be wary of paying too much for one, as I’ve seen them anywhere from £70 which is ok, upto and over £110 which - which is a scandal!!!Read full review

I'm using the D30 with a P50 power supply. Using an old Macbook Pro with Tidal HiFi subscription (1411kbps ) connected via usb. This Topping combination clearly improves upon the Macs own dac in all areas you can imagine. No point listing all the improvements, you name it and it's better. Tidal HiFi 1411 kbps is basically cd specification but I now feel my combination actually sounds better than an a descent cd player. The D30 was recognised immediately by the Mac and also my Samsung A50 phone worked straight away via type C to usb adaptor. The P50 power supply will be adding to the sound quality, so bare that in mind. Rest of the system is Topping TP60 amp and Ayal loudspeakers (awesome) made by 3 Square Audio.
