Topping A70 Pro Headphone Amplifier I doubt this amp needs much introduction but here is the link to the product page- https://www.toppingaudio.com/product-item/a70-pro This one was purchased by the original owner 10/1/24 from A2A here in Perth.

Timing is fine here: this is a current-generation piece rather than a nostalgic buy, so the main question is simply whether the price is right.
