The Topping A90 Discrete Balanced Headphone Amplifier (A90D) is a direct upgrade over it's predecessor, the Topping A90. Featuring a number of quality of life improvements including a R2R volume relay, a remote control, a ground loop noise terminator switch, a 12V trigger interface, a redesigned UI, volume memorization, and more, the A90D is better in every way.

As its name suggests, the A90D uses fully discrete components in a complete redesign of the A90 NFCA module. Four discrete NFCA modules using 39 transistors each form the fully balanced amp architecture. The matched precision transistors ensure unparalleled distortion and noise performance.

Scarlett ★★★★★

The relay-based volume control is such a clever touch—no scratchy noise when adjusting, just clean, precise steps. I've been A/B testing it against my old amp and the channel matching is noticeably better at low volumes.

Michael W. ★★★★★

The R2R volume relay gives such precise control that I can fine-tune the volume to exactly my liking, even with sensitive IEMs. It drives my planar headphones with effortless clarity and zero noise floor. A worthy upgrade that solved every nitpick I had with the previous model.

Natalie I. ★★★★★

Swapped out my old amp for this one and the difference through my planar headphones was obvious within the first song. The stepped volume control clicks so precisely that I can finally fine-tune quiet late-night listening without channel imbalance. Runs cool too, even after a few hours.
