Pricing and Availability
The TOPPING D90 III Discrete is available for $999 on Geekwills. The Silver version is currently up for pre-sale and is set to ship on October 26.
Innovative PSRM Technology
At the core of the TOPPING D90 III Discrete are its 16-phase PSRM modules, which are assigned individually to both left and right channels for superior audio output. PSRM stands for Phase Shifted Reservoir Modulation, a discrete 1-bit DAC that provides precise sound reproduction. Its design includes a fast-switching logic array and a high-accuracy voltage reference, which together reduce disturbances and enhance performance reliability.
Exceptional Jitter Performance
A key highlight of the D90 III Discrete is its outstanding jitter capabilities. With a jitter rate as low as -157dB, this DAC ensures that your music is played back with exceptional clarity, devoid of noise or distortion.
Enhanced I/V Conversion Circuit
The D90 III Discrete incorporates an upgraded I/V conversion circuit that significantly improves audio quality. This circuit is developed with low-distortion operational amplifiers and ultra-low noise parts, ensuring clear voltage output. Consequently, listeners can enjoy a rich dynamic range and a realistic soundstage.
Realistic Audio Playback
Boasting a remarkably low Total Harmonic Distortion (THD+N) of less than 0.00006%, the D90 III Discrete provides an authentic music experience. It captures every detail from the recording, making you feel as if you are in the studio alongside the artist.
LDAC Bluetooth Connectivity
The D90 III Discrete supports Bluetooth 5.1 through the QCC5125 chip, facilitating high-quality wireless audio streaming. It works with various audio codecs, including LDAC, aptX-Adaptive, aptX HD, AAC, and SBC, allowing for wireless playback of high-resolution audio up to 96kHz/24bit, surpassing standard CD quality.
Customizable PEQ Adjustments
For users who prefer to tailor their audio experience, the D90 III Discrete features a ten-band parametric equalizer (PEQ). This allows for adjustments of frequency, gain, and bandwidth across ten bands via TOPPING's desktop software. Users can even save multiple profiles for quick selection, making it adaptable for different listening styles.
Easy Plug and Play Functionality
Designed for straightforward integration, the D90 III Discrete is compatible with various devices and operating systems, including Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android. It utilizes a third-generation XMOS XU316 USB chip, supporting high-resolution audio playback of up to PCM768kHz/32bit and DSD512, making it a versatile DAC for numerous setups.
Advanced IIS Input Interface
Additionally, the DAC includes an IIS interface, a specialized digital audio transmission system. It supports high-end specs like PCM768kHz/32bit and DSD512 native, ensuring it works seamlessly with most digital interfaces.
Convenient Bluetooth Remote Control
The D90 III Discrete comes with a user-friendly 2.4G Bluetooth remote control, allowing for easy operation even from a distance. This feature enhances user convenience, making control effortless without needing to be close to the device.
