The Topping BC3 is a portable Bluetooth audio receiver and DAC/amp built around the CSR8675 Bluetooth chip and ES9018Q2C DAC. It receives Bluetooth audio and can feed headphones, an analog line input, or an external DAC/amplifier via optical output, making it useful as a wireless upgrade for desktop systems, integrated amps, active speakers, and car audio setups. It is powered by an internal rechargeable battery and is positioned as a small hi-res wireless adapter rather than a full-size component.
