The DX3 Pro+ is a digital-to-analogue converter from TOPPING, sharing the D10s's ES9038Q2M conversion chip with comprehensive PCM 768kHz format support. The DX3 Pro+ brings TOPPING's considered engineering to an accessible digital conversion format.
Key specs that matter
The ESS ES9038Q2M conversion chip handles digital-to-analogue conversion, matching the D10s. DSD compatibility reaches DSD256, with PCM support up to a comprehensive 32-bit/768kHz - wider than the D10s's 384kHz. Output level is 2.1V single-ended. Signal-to-noise ratio is an exceptional 122dB, with total harmonic distortion plus noise at 0.0002% at 22kHz. At 40 x 120 x 165mm, the DX3 Pro+ maintains a manageable, accessible DAC chassis.
Sound and use context
Expect exceptionally clean, detailed conversion reflecting the exceptional 122dB signal-to-noise figure and near-immeasurable 0.0002% distortion figure, representing outstanding value at this accessible price tier.
Pairing
TOPPING's own amplifier catalogue offers natural, brand-coherent pairings within the same broader accessible catalogue.
Alternatives
TOPPING's own D10s offers a more compact alternative within the same broader digital source catalogue.
