I have the Topping TP 20 driving a pair of Usher S-520. I currently do not have a dedicated DAC. I play music mostly through the 3.5 mm analog out from my smart phone. It becomes reasonably audible when the volume knob is between the 12 and 3. That is ok with me.
However, I want to use this with the Asus O-Play HD2 media player. The RCA out from it is fed into the TP 20, but then it seems the TP 20 struggles to drive the speakers. The volume from the speakers is faint when compared to what I get if I play music from the smartphone. Will a better DAC solve my problem?
I am currently not in a position to spend too much on a DAC, but I can spend some money on the FiiO D3. Will the FiiO D3 do the job I want from it? T
