TOPPING D50 III Dual ES9039Q2M Hi-Res Desktop DAC

TOPPING D50 III Desktop DAC

The TOPPING D50 III is the third-generation evolution of the acclaimed D50 line, bringing significant enhancements over its predecessors. Dual ES9039Q2M D/A chips deliver exceptional clarity and depth, with support for formats up to DSD512 and PCM 768kHz backed by hi-res certification. A brand-new I/V conversion circuit, LDAC wireless capability, and dual Type-C connections make it a fully modern desktop DAC – with THD+N below 0.00006% and advanced 10-band PEQ adjustment.

Dual-Core Audio Excellence

Dual ES9039Q2M D/A chips form the core of the D50 III, with one chip dedicated to each stereo channel. This architecture achieves higher SNR, greater dynamic range, and lower distortion – ensuring every note is rendered with crystal-clear precision.

New I/V Conversion Circuit

The newly designed current-to-voltage conversion circuit pushes the boundaries of audio reproduction, combining lower distortion, reduced noise, and a compact design to deliver sound as close to the original recording as possible.

CNC Unibody Construction

The D50 III is machined from a single piece of aluminum into a CNC unibody construction. This not only provides superior electromagnetic shielding for a quiet signal path, but also adds an elegant, precision-crafted look to your desk.

Wireless Freedom with LDAC

Embrace high-quality audio without the wires. The D50 III supports LDAC and other high-definition Bluetooth codecs over Bluetooth 5.1, ensuring your wireless listening experience does not compromise on sound quality.

Universal Compatibility with Dual Type-C

Dual Type-C interfaces handle both signal transmission and power, with plug-and-play support across Windows, macOS, Linux, and mobile platforms – ready to breathe new life into your music library on any device.

Versatile Outputs – RCA & TRS Balanced

Both RCA single-ended and TRS balanced outputs are available, catering to a variety of professional and personal audio setups from powered speakers to amplifiers and recording gear.

Preamplifier Mode for Your Desk

Transform your desktop speaker setup with the D50 III’s preamp mode. Adjust volume directly on the device for a streamlined experience with active speakers or power amplifiers, no separate preamp required.

Ten-Band PEQ at Your Fingertips

Customize your sound with ten-band parametric EQ adjustment. The new desktop software and refined PEQ algorithm allow intricate tuning with customizable profiles, making your audio experience truly your own.

12V Trigger & Seamless Pairing

A 12V trigger output enables integrated power control with other devices. The D50 III is designed to pair perfectly with the A50 III headphone amplifier for a complete, high-performance desktop audio solution.
