DAC and Headphone Amplifier
The Topping DX5 II combines a dual ES9039Q2M DAC with an X-Hybrid balanced headphone amplifier in one desktop unit. It decodes PCM up to 768kHz 32bit and DSD512, and provides 7600mW x2 into balanced loads. A 2.0 inch Aurora UI display with nine themes gives direct control over input selection, volume and PEQ settings.
Desktop Listeners and Streamers
This unit suits listeners who want a single box for wired and wireless sources, with balanced 4.4mm and single-ended 6.35mm headphone outputs plus preamp outputs for active speakers. It supports Bluetooth 5.1 with LDAC, aptX Adaptive, aptX HD, AAC and SBC codecs. Buyers who need more than two headphone outputs, or who require multichannel decoding, should look elsewhere.
Dual ES9039Q2M DAC Chips
The defining specification is the dual ES9039Q2M DAC configuration, which enables the stated PCM 768kHz 32bit and DSD512 decoding performance. This chip choice determines the maximum supported sample rates and the measured distortion floor. If your sources do not exceed standard CD resolution, the extra headroom these chips provide may not be necessary.

Questions about this item
How much power can the X-Hybrid balanced amp deliver continuously before it limits output?
The balanced headphone amplifier provides 7600 mW per channel through the 4.4 mm output, designed to drive demanding headphones without an audible noise floor.
Does the DX5 II run hot or noisy when used as a desktop DAC and amp all day?
The unit uses an X-Hybrid quad-channel circuit with ultra-low distortion and no audible noise floor, so it stays quiet and cool during extended listening sessions.
Which headphone connectors do I need on my headphones to use the balanced and single-ended outputs?
The DX5 II has a 4.4 mm balanced jack and a 6.35 mm single-ended jack, so your headphones must terminate in one of those two plugs.
