Amazing stack, I have the red version of both and I really love them, impressive quality and power for 300 dollars. By the way, for the high quality of your videos and excellent reviews (with no shouts, "this is the King", "best of the best", etc.) you would deserve half million subscribers and lots of views. The notification bell is ready for the next one :)
I bought this amplifier, it sounds noticeably cleaner (not a humungous difference though) than my Focusrite 2i2's headphone out at a matched volume level, and can get much much louder so i'm happy.
did u get all CABLES for that Topping L30 II work? I cant find this information ....I buyed it but i wanna be prepared to connect it but i just dont know what is coming with it ty
Hi great video! Do you think this would be a good combo with the iFi zen dac (v1)? I'm considering the Zen Can but it's double the price of the L30 ii 😅
when used as passthrough as a preamp, does the gain setting effect the signal "out"? I have a d10s to an SMSL SH6 headphone amp (that this is going to replace) to an Emotivia TA2 amp for a pair of speakers and subwoffer
Hi there, I have a couple of questions if I may? Whats your opinion on the pre-amp functionality? When you do your review on the k7 (which im also looking into, could you incorporate your opinion on the functionality there? I'm looking to get into headphones, just purchased a hd560s along with a different headphone amp (SMSL SH-6). I use my speakers a lot and will therefore also use the pre-amp function quite a bit. The SMSL SH-6 just kills the bass in the pre-amp, just no musicality left for me in the low end. I'm not a basshead by any means, just want the music to be there if that makes sense I'm not sure how to describe it, pretty new to hifi. My system for reference if it helps: Speakers - Overnight Sensations (DIY kit), DAC- Smsl su-6, Speaker amplifier - Aiyima A07, Streamer - Wiim Pro (going into my DAC) system is used in a desktop setting, DAC connected digitally to both streamer (optical) and PC (USB) headphones are hd560s.
Hello, sorry I'm kinda new to this field but what is the difference between buying the L30ii & E30ii (2 devices) VS buying one device, the Topping DX3pro+ (all in one - DAC/AMP).
Very informative review, thank you. How does it compare to the more expensive Topping models, like the A30 Pro? Does spending an extra 100 dollars go a long way to improving the quality?
I have the regular zen can, the L30 II, and a few others (Fiio K7, Atom+, Liquid Spark, and others) - It depends on what you like. If you want transparent clean power with no background noise, the L30 II is it. You probably won't find better in its price range. the zen can is a very colored and washed out sound. To some, it sounds "warm" and "liquid".
It's got way higher output power, that can be a big improvement depending on your headphones. Otherwise it's harder to say how noticeable the improvements are, it's just a little bit better all around.

I appreciate the kind words! Thanks for watching!
if you bought on sales you can get them for ~110 USD each
I have enjoyed your work with Gizaudio, but I didn't know you had your own channel, so I'm happy to subscribe and watch!
Thank you for watching and subscribing!
How's they vs mojo2
Great review of a great little stack. I like how you didn't do a Zeos and imply it's better then gear that cost multiple times more.
Can this be connected directly to an lp120 turntable to listen to music?
Really professional video, I just found your channel and have subscribed. Keep going, you will be noticed soon enough 👍

did you end up posting the k7 review?
How do you know they have a TPA6120A2 chipset in them? Did you open them?
I have just purchased a schiit magni 3+ should i pair it with this dac or go the modi 3!
Fantastic channel
Will this drive the Audio Technica ATH R70x fine
Would this be ok to drive 600 ohm headphones? I just got some Sennheiser HD520 from 1985!

BTW, I subbed, like your style and the information you present. Thank you for the review!
Great review! How would this compare with a portable amp/dac such as the Moonriver 2?

Same question here.

would this be better than an ifi zen air can?

@@JohnSmith-oe4bw what about power? does L30 ii has a lot of power than zen can?
I plan to drive he400se
i currently have zen dac alone
I have the Topping L30 , Is it worth the upgrade to the Mk 2 ?

@@ozzyp97 Using a pair of Sennheiser 58x, I noticed the difference much louder, And good sound Thanks
