Glad to see ML is back. 
Topping D10 DAC Asynchronous?
I have the same question.  I assume so, but am looking for confirmation.

@yyzsantabarbara ,Thanks for the info and context.  There are a lot of variables.  It seems like the Mini Maggies can sound wonderful IF you have a lot of flexibility in the placement / set up.  The TAD's are very nice.
