Pair with Laptop via USB

A majority of people use a laptop as the primary source device to listen to music or watch movies. Since the laptop is an essential part of the audio chain there are headphones and devices designed to work a laptop or computer system flawlessly. With the availability of USB connectivity, it becomes easier to pair various devices like an Amp, DAC or even headphones without worrying about drivers or any additional piece of software.
DAC Chip
You may not even realise it, but most of us use a digital-to-analogue converter (commonly known as a DAC) daily. Built into your computers, tablets and smartphones, a DAC is fundamental to unlocking the convenience of digital music. Any device that acts as a digital sound source will need a DAC to convert digital audio to analog. A DAC converts the digital information stored in “0s and 1s” into an analog signal that's passed to speakers or headphones and ultimately our ear. In short, DACs play a large part in making digital music hearable. 

While this technical process is undoubtedly impressive, the DAC embedded into your smartphones or laptops is nowhere good enough to listen to your favourite music recordings in high quality. So, if you want to listen to music in high quality, an external DAC is essential to allow headphones or speakers to perform at their potential. An external DAC, first and foremost, will improve audio quality dramatically.

Connect With USB
Coaxial, Optical & AES

Volume Controls

If your DAC & Amps include volume controls or volume rockers, you can easily change the volume with a button press or volume knob turn.


DAC & Amps that have volume controls make its operation incredibly simple; turn up the volume on your smartphone or your source devices and then change the volume on DAC & Amps to the desired level.


This design feature allows you to have complete control over the desired volume according to your listening preferences.

Topping shows that a capable DAC doesn’t have to break the bank, and with its state-of-the-art performance, the Topping D90 SE is a no-holds-barred DAC.

A FULL-FLEDGED MQA DECODER REVEALING SONIC MAGIC THAT ARTISTS CREATE IN THEIR STUDIOS

The Master Quality Authenticated (MQA) is an audio codec approved and authenticated in the studio. It all begins with audio capturing and recording after which the MQA folds the file to make it suitable for streaming in a process called music origami. The entire goal behind this process is:
1. To offer audio that's better than CD quality on any device
2. To offer original master recording when paired with an MQA decoder
Equipped with a full MQA decoder, the TOPPING D90SE unfolds MQA files in the highest possible audio quality. This unfolding process is done using precise file and platform-specific DAC compensation and management to reveal the true musical magic that artists create in recording studios.

A surprise

I was very skeptical to buy a China made high end DAC with XLR input as my first choice Schiit Modius was not available. But the TOPPING D90SE was a super surprise. The sound-stage, the detail, the presence all blew my socks off. The only issue is the remote control could be better made. I am using this DAC only as a source to my amp and so I have not used the preamp function and cannot comment on that.
