Question Is the HDD USB connection of my Auralic Aries G1 a good power supply for my Topping E50 ??

[lsegeorge]

The Ifi ipower2 5v that was supposed to power my Topping E50 Dac went missing due to an Amazon delivery mixup.

So for now I decided to power the Topping E50 from the HDD USB port of my Auralic since I have no use for it.

Is this a good idea??
Will the Aries G1 deliver "cleaner" power than the average mobile phone charger??
Btw its also simpler as it reduces cable clutter. Should I skip the Ifi altogether??

Also on another note I have the Topping seating on top of the Auralic. From an interferences perspective is that a bad idea ???

I'd say it will be no worse.

As for positioning of your Topping, I can only say that I'm one of those that would never place anything on top of anything else.
I always maintain distance.
(Others will tell you there's no problem).

May be a question for the manufacturer.
