Topping A50S issue: shuts down on high volume???
Hey! I think you may be right! I have Phillips Fidelio X3 that are natively balanced. They don't have a 4,4mm jack, but I have a 2,5mm-4,4mm adapter that fits the jack in the amp. They also have a single-ended cable that terminates into a 3,5mm male (which can be used with the 3,5-4,4mm adapter)...- unconfortablynumb

Topping A50S issue: shuts down on high volume???
I usually have the DAC at about 70%, I would say. It only happens when I listen to songs that are heavy on the treble. Do you think it could be the DAC's fault? I'd rather not open the amp up as I wouldn't know what to look for.- unconfortablynumb

Topping A50S issue: shuts down on high volume???
So, I noticed a problem with my Topping A50S: when using a 4,4mm-to-3,5mm adapter in the balanced jack, my A50S shuts down with a loud crackling sound at high volume when playing songs dominant in the treble range. I am using it with a FiiO k3 DAC and Beyerdymic DT1990 Pro headphones. Has...- unconfortablynumb

My headphones get more volume from the DAC than they do from the amp?
Alright, that makes sense. Thought I haven't experienced clipping with this DAC. Should I get another DAC to get the most out of the A50s?- unconfortablynumb

My headphones get more volume from the DAC than they do from the amp?
I recently got the Topping A50s headphone amp, and I must say I am a little confused - it seems as if the volume is slightly lower coming from it than if I plug my headphones directly to my DAC which is a little FiiO K3. I have tried it with my DT-1990, Phillips Fidelio X3's and Koss Porta Pro...- unconfortablynumb

Amp for DT-1990 Pro?
I can't get L30 at that price in my location. It goes for around $350 here. But at that point, I am thinking about getting the NFB-11.28. It seems to be the superior unit in that price range. What do you think?- unconfortablynumb

Amp for DT-1990 Pro?
Hello! I recently bought the DT-1990 Pro by Beyerdynamic. They sound great through my little Fiio K3 dac/amp, but I understand that feeding them from a standalone amp would be a huge upgrade. What would be a fitting amp for these cans? Budget: around US $250. Thanks!- unconfortablynumb

Audeze EL-8 (Open back) vs Hifiman Sundara
Anyone here have experience with both that can chime in on how they compare? When I read the specs, both have quite low impedance, but at the same time are recommended to be used with an amp?- unconfortablynumb
