Reviews
“Even though the PA7 Plus is based on a commercial amplifier IC, it is clearly that significant engineering optimizations have gone into the design to produce such a low noise and distortion amplifier. The package is excellent and power supply quite hefty... I am happy to add Topping PA7 Plus to my recommended list.”

“Absolutely yes—the PA7 drives demanding planars like Audeze LCD-XC and Hifiman Susvara better than most standalone desktop head-fi rigs costing twice as much... The PA7 remains smooth yet detailed throughout.”
