The Topping DX3 sounds very good and enjoyable to listen to. There's lots of detail revealed in the music and the headphone output is capable of easily driving my IEM's (AKG N40 / Etymotic ER3) and my Sennheiser HD600's. In comparison with a Chord Mojo, one of my favourite DAC's, the Topping has a slightly harsher, brighter top end and lacks the phenomenal bass quality and sense of insight into the music the Chord DAC offers. The Chord is also better at presenting a musical whole rhythmically, whilst the Topping feels more clinical as if it's dissecting the music, as opposed to presenting it as a musical whole. In isolation though it sounds very good and is enjoyable and not tiring to listen to. It's hard to fault for the money given its versatility. Whilst lossy, the Bluetooth functionality is also excellent supporting LDAC and APT-X modes for good performance with Bluetooth devices. The main benefit to me though is the DX3's incredible versatility and this is where it truly shines - I have a FireTV on my desk connected by Bluetooth, a Chromecast audio via optical, a PC and Mac connected via USB and a Raspberry Pi (with Wolfson sound card) running PiCorePlayer connected via coaxial, all of which can be easily switched between using the remote, or the front panel knob. My biggest criticism is of the limited operating angle of the remote - if you are too far off-axis from the front display, the remote doesn't work, but that's a minor issue. I also like that switching from headphones to line out mutes the output not in use, which means I never need to touch the amp to adjust the volume or mute it for any reason. A well-built product, with great specs, which in many ways perfectly highlights the 'measurement vs. subjective' camps of HiFi. Review: Excellent bit of kit - Extremely pleased with this, using it with an old integrated amp in DAC mode (just 'cause I like to see the sample rate displayed) with Chromecast Audio and also Bluetooth (LDAC codec) via my Pixel 4a for streaming desertcart Unlimited, Deezer, Tidal and Spotify (we have family accounts on Spotify and currently free trials on two of the others). Particularly impressed with Bluetooth. All worked flawlessly so far. Not used for headphones so can't comment on that. Did use in preamp mode initially and volume control worked fine when tested but as I only use for streaming I control volume from phone apps so limited value for me at the moment and as mentioned, I quickly changed unit to DAC mode so that sample rate is always displayed. Great value, great sound, very pleased. ## Features - Bluetooth 5.0 LDAC transmission ：DX3Pro+ has the certification of Hi-Res Audio Wireless and LDAC. It uses newest QCC5125 chipset to support LDAC/AAC/SBC/APTX/APTX LL/APTX HD protocol. To get even better sound quality from Bluetooth, we abandon the built-in DAC of QCC5125 and connect its digital signal to ES9038Q2M to decode. - NFCA circuit ：The new DX3 Pro+ has the NFCA circuit optimized for this unit, giving the ultra low noise and distortion. It pairs with high sensitivity IEMs and power hungry high impedance headphones nicely. - Pre-amplifier function ：Adapt to different usage scenarios, DX3 Pro+ has 4 output modes: Headphone Amp, Headphone Amp+ Line out, DAC, and Pre amplifier. - PA3s is the best power amplifier for DX3 Pro+： PA3s has RCA+TRS balanced inputs. When used with DX3 Pro+, the TRS balanced input can be used to input other audio sources. The output power of 80W x 2@4Ω, 10%THD+N, 65W X 2@4Ω, 1%THD+N can be adapted to most situations where speakers are used. - Bluetooth headphone amp / Bluetooth DAC application： Connect the Bluetooth of the phone, tablet or notebook to DX3 Pro+, and connect the power amplifier, active speakers or headphones to the DX3 Pro+'s output, then DX3 Pro+ becomes your Bluetooth Headphone amp / Bluetooth DAC. If your device supports LDAC transmission, you will get even better experience. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B09HBS8SLJ | | Best Sellers Rank | 142 in Headphone Amplifiers | | Brand | Fanmusic | | Country Of Origin | China | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 4.2 out of 5 stars (468) | | Interface | Bluetooth, TRS | | Manufacturer | Topping | | Manufacturer Part Number | DX3 Pro+ | | Maximum Supply Voltage | 15 Volts (DC) | | Model Number | DX3 Pro+ | | Mounting Type | Freestanding | | Number of Channels | 2 | | Number of Pins | 12 | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Fanmusic - **Interface type:** Bluetooth, TRS - **Maximum supply voltage:** 15 Volts (DC) - **Mounting type:** Freestanding - **Number of pins:** 12 ## Images ![Topping DX3 Pro+ ES9038Q2M Bluetooth 5.0 LDAC Audio Decoder DSD512 DAC AMP NFCA Headphone Amplifier Pre Amplifier (Black) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/6155j2N1WDL.jpg) ![Topping DX3 Pro+ ES9038Q2M Bluetooth 5.0 LDAC Audio Decoder DSD512 DAC AMP NFCA Headphone Amplifier Pre Amplifier (Black) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/31Y4-oHlQJL.jpg) ![Topping DX3 Pro+ ES9038Q2M Bluetooth 5.0 LDAC Audio Decoder DSD512 DAC AMP NFCA Headphone Amplifier Pre Amplifier (Black) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61QRv6NodzL.jpg) ![Topping DX3 Pro+ ES9038Q2M Bluetooth 5.0 LDAC Audio Decoder DSD512 DAC AMP NFCA Headphone Amplifier Pre Amplifier (Black) - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/6129uUHHL3L.jpg) ![Topping DX3 Pro+ ES9038Q2M Bluetooth 5.0 LDAC Audio Decoder DSD512 DAC AMP NFCA Headphone Amplifier Pre Amplifier (Black) - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71XRmR962XL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Does the bluetooth work as a replacement for a usb transmitter. Meaning I can connect my bluetooth earphones to this and play soun** A: The Topping DX3 Pro+ can only receive Bluetooth from an external device like a smart phone. It does not have the capability to connect to Bluetooth output devices like a Bluetooth speaker. **Q: Is the volume for the line-out fixed or variable? And can you listen on heaphone out and line out at the same time?** A: Headphone and Line Out are switched from the remote, only one of them can be active. Unless there is a mode I have not discovered yet. **Q: What is included in the box? Any cables?** A: In the box: The DAC, wall wart for power, the antenna, the remote and a USB cable! So yes, a USB cable! **Q: Is the power supply included?** A: Yes! It includes a wall wart power supply ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly versatile and great value for money *by A***O on 4 February 2022* Using an old Naim amp on my desk, with limited inputs, I wanted a means to expand the digital inputs, conveniently and inexpensively.

Great value, great sound, very pleased. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Noticeable clarity improvement over FiiO E10K *by M***N on 6 December 2023* I have a pair of DT 770 pro 250ohm headphones and I have been running them off of an FiiO E10K for years. I bought the Topping DX3 Pro+ for some active speaks to connect to my TV, and I thought I'd try out the headphone connection. Switching between the two, the Topping DX3 Pro+ was noticeably clearer than my FiiO E10K. I might have to get another one. *edit* Update from 5 to 4 stars since I ran into a ground loop noise issue which I think this product should handle internally instead of relying on a separate iDefender+ USB device. This issue only occurred for me when connecting the DX3 Pro+ to a desktop AM5 B650m (rear IO ports - it'll be worse on the front IO ports). I ran this from a Lenovo L14 laptop without any issues. Using the ifi iDefender+ does resolve this issue for desktops. ## Frequently Bought Together - Topping DX3 Pro+ ES9038Q2M Bluetooth 5.0 LDAC Audio Decoder DSD512 DAC AMP NFCA Headphone Amplifier Pre Amplifier (Black) - HIFIMAN Edition XS Full-Size Over-Ear Open-Back Planar Magnetic Hi-Fi Headphones with Stealth Magnets Design, Adjustable Headband, Detachable Cable for Audiophiles, Home, Studio-Black - NewFantasia Replacement Audio Cable only Compatible with Hifiman Sundara, Arya, Ananda Headphones 3.5mm and 6.35mm to Dual 3.5mm Connector Jack Male Cord 1.2meters/4feet --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/364001097-topping-dx3-pro-es9038q2m-bluetooth-5-0-ldac-audio-decoder](https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/364001097-topping-dx3-pro-es9038q2m-bluetooth-5-0-ldac-audio-decoder) --- *Product available on Desertcart Saudi Arabia* *Store origin: SA* *Last updated: 2026-05-10*
