Two comments that were quite funny to me I want to address. Anyone that tells you there are no differences between amp dacs has never tried more than one amp dac. 😅 This is easily demonstrable listening to the differences between a schiit bifrost and a D90se, or comparing the dx9 and aune s9c, which will slap you in the face. I haven’t tried other amp dacs aios in this price range to compare this unit to, so I’m not going to say an enthusiast should pick this over something else. But I can share my enjoyment out of my own purchase of the dx9. Focus on your budget, don’t get fomo, and try to research what’s best for your budget.

@ancientalien815 7 месяцев назад

I can tell you I've definitely heard differences in pretty much all the gear I've tested. It could be for some people that their headphones or iems really just don't have the resolution to hear the differences clearly or their listening ability is just not great. Also some combos do sound similar while some sound totally different. Biggest difference I've heard is going from the smsl do100 ho100 stack to the burson 3x reference. Night and day difference. Way more resolution, more separation, sharper edges, stronger bass lines, wider sounding stage. There is definitely a reason that people spend big money on audio equipment. Hell I've even heard big differences in cables. Especially the ones connecting your DAC to your amplifier. Go from pure copper to pure silver and you will 100% notice a massive difference.

Thanks for sharing your experience! Considering this one for my 64 Audio U12t IEMs. I've been having trouble determining if sounds are coming from above or below in games, both with the U12t and Yanyin Canon II. DACs I've used are Moondrop Dawn Pro, Hiby FC6, and Questyle M12i, all of which are dongles at a much lower price point. I've tried a variety of tips, which helped a bit, but not enough. How does the DX9 compare to other DACs you've used in this respect?

Hi Fresh, I'm new to audiophile stuff, and I'm looking for a balanced 4-pin XLR cable. After a quite long research, I narrowed down my options, the Blue Jeans and the Tripowin.

Or do you have a personal recommendation besides these? Your answer is greatly appreciated.

I don't dislike either but it just caught me off guard. Almost like the Fiio is the sound we are all used to or expecting to hear then the Topping is very reserved but super exacting if that makes sense. Not sure if it's a chip thing or a Topping thing.

@@TheSakuraBirb Well my advice to you is get the best IEMs or HPs you can afford first and don't think too much about dac/amp for now. Amps and DACs become relevant when you get drivers that are sufficiently high enough in technicalities and or when you've figured out what sort of sound signature you like the most (that last part comes from just experiencing stuff, either by attending to event such as Canjams or by visiting your local shops). If you still decide to splurge money on amp/dac, with what you've right now i would look into dongles instead. You certainly don't need beefy amps such as seen in this video, it would be a massive overkill, even if you go for entry level topping and such.

@GoldenEagle0007 21 час назад

dx9 really that much better then aune s9c pro for gaming? Because the Aune seems to have really insane soundstage/separation but I have to lower the bass with APOon my hd490 pro or just use the non balanced cable which seems to make it much thinner for gaming with less bass, like more analytical/cleaner. I was going to get the dx9 but after i found out about the aune and the reviewers were literally blown away by it so i thought why not half the price and I don't need all the extras of the dx9. I might try optical cable again because that seems to make the aune less musical but faster sounding, like shorter decays of sound waves but for music the longer decays on USB makes it much more musical like your listening to live music

Can you use it with an iPad and what’s the input type?

@FreshReviewsYT 5 месяцев назад

I’m not sure. You’d need some sort of a usb adapter to the iPad from the dac amp and I just don’t know if iPads recognize it but maybev

IF your really after soundstage/imaging, you gotta try a R2R DAC. It makes a world of difference vs delta-sigma DACs, the Gustard R26 made me get rid of my RME in a heartbeat!

@FreshReviewsYT 7 месяцев назад

I hear NOTHING but good things about the r26. I might pick one up.

@JtwasLuck 7 месяцев назад

@@FreshReviewsYT It's rare for something to meet the hype that it gets but this certainly is it. Going from the RME to the R26 felt like I had upgraded my amp lol. Make sure to run it in NOS as well and you will love the sound that it makes. Definitely one of the best upgrades I ever did to my system. Sounds are so organic and natural, you can hear the reverb come off each instruments, its spectacular.

Hi there, im sorry if this will be a long comment and i hope you will take some of your busy time to answer my questions 🙏🏼 There’s a couple of questions that i would like to ask regarding the dx9 1. From what i researched from asr reviews and head-fi there’s a lot of people saying that all topping sounds the same and there’s a comment from joshua valour he says that the dx9 is just a better version of the dx3 pro+ (which i have and enjoyed very much). So is this true or is it just haters that don’t like the price of dx9? 2. How does it compare to aune s9c pro, xduoo ta-22, ifi neo idsd 2, and fiio k9 pro and can you hear the difference? I’m sorry if the question is very long and i thankyou for the review and i had bought moondrop variations from your reviews since you said that it’s good for valorant when the review 1st came out🙏🏼

@FreshReviewsYT 7 месяцев назад

It’s better than the aune and better than the k9 pro.

Compare it to the Burson 🙏

@FreshReviewsYT 7 месяцев назад

The burson is significantly richer in bass. Moving to a class a amp is a massive step. Absolute beautiful unit, and something that made the he1000se feel insane. There is massive noise with IEMs on the burson however and an ifi iematch is necessary

@liquidwut 4 месяца назад

I've only found one solution to this "issue" with a company called violectric. Blacks out the noise on iems like a topping along with controllable gain so you don't blow out the drivers, but can drive high end headphones such as susvara/modhouse tungsten. Would probably have to go with the middle-high end lines though as the entry level may be too warm for gaming.@@FreshReviewsYT
