DX5 Lite vs DX5?
The only difference between these two models is that the DX5 features MQA rendering while the DX5 Lite does not. So where the DX5 has an “MQA” sticker, the DX5 Lite has a “Lite” sticker. Other than that, these devices share the same great specs and features.
One-for-all
This “one-for-all” DAC/amp is perfect for any entertainment center, boasting multiple high-end inputs that allow for seamless connectivity with a range of devices. Now you can connect your Macbook, PC, or other source via USB, and game consoles, phones, and players via Bluetooth or coaxial. You can even watch your favorite movies and TV shows via optical connection.
2x ES9068AS DAC chips
TOPPING has engineered the DX5 Lite with great attention to detail, resulting in incredible performance from its dual ESS DAC chips. With a THD+N of 0.00009%, a dynamic range of 128dB, and noise levels under 2.0uVrms, this device is sure to deliver unparalleled sound quality.
LDAC 24bit/96kHz Bluetooth transmission
The DX5 Lite features LDAC 24bit/96kHz Bluetooth transmission, utilizing the latest QCC5125 Bluetooth chipset that supports various protocols such as LDAC, AAC, SBC, aptX, aptX LL, and aptX HD. The Bluetooth input signal bypasses the QCC5125’s built-in DAC chip, and the dual ESS chips decode the signal to achieve the best possible sound quality.
Built-in NFCA headphone amp
The DX5 Lite comes equipped with a built-in NFCA headphone amp that provides ultra-low noise and distortion. With 125dB SNR and 1800mW x2 @32Ω of output power, it pairs perfectly with high-sensitivity IEMs and high-impedance full-sized headphones.
