Topping D50S dac

I heard the the D50S in particular is affected by power supply quality. Anyone know of a good, inexpensive linear power supply?
There’s no sense in me paying $130 for Topping’s linear PSU since I don’t use my D50 often and I’ll probably replace in the next year.

Hi …
got the d50s since a week
this is my review.
its solidly built
nice size
very good bluetooth dac
remote control is a bonus
in terms of sound …
at 1st i found it siblant
but after few songs
its got better.
comming from 100$ tone1 dac
im surprized by the soundstage
and the layering of the sound
especially with live songs .
bass is deep and hits good
mids are neutral
little bit thin and airy but detailed
(prefer warmish a bit :frowning: )
trebile sparkles good and not siblant
i got surprised by fast drums hits
and the ability to seperate every sound
sound is never crowded…
if u listen to bad records the faults
will not be covered.
dsd music sounds the best.
thats all .
its worth it if u get it used .
thanx

As a reminder, you can swap opamps in the D50S to get a warmer sound. :grin:

what op amps u recommend ??

Hmm. This might help: Opamp upgrade worth? Or any Competitors?

Otherwise you might want to start a new thread 100% about “opamp rolling” experiences if you want more info from more people (I’m surprised there isn’t one yet).
