A BIG thank you to Apos Audio for lending the Topping D90iii Sabre for review, much appreciated.

The Topping D90iii Sabre is the 3rd version of the D90 DAC line. It has all sorts of technical advancements and measures fantastic but does it sound good? How does it compare to the Fiio K9 Pro, Aune S9C Pro and Mytek Liberty DAC ii?

I am not a professional sound engineer, producer, musician, or vocalist, etc. I have not done any scientific research, measurements, or in-depth testing of any kind; just my own listening, comparing and internet reading/research. I have limited, real-life experience with recording, mixing and mastering gear. I have been involved since my teenage years with various churches as an amateur sound booth technician.

Please take these thoughts, opinions and reasonings as just that, my honest audiophile thoughts, opinions and reasonings.
