Received my DX50 a few days ago - Ibasso's RMA process has been quite fast! The problem creating the noise was that a resistor on the amp sectio blow out.   I don't know why but well, now it's fixed. Thanks Paul & Ibasso team!   What did you use to mount the image? I wanted to compare...

  Gapless would be great..   The Ibasso team could probably come up with an original firmware with a as-great-as-possible sound some time in the future...   What exactly are the modifications in SU vs mainline ibasso firmware? Config mostly or...? Anywhere where I could read more on that?

DX50 sent to the address given to me by email.. Hope that it can be fixed soon as that little player has been quite good while it worked fine...   Cheers!

Thanks for your input. It makes sense that the disturbance comes from the processor or a surrounding component as the noise change depending on the activity on the player.   I just don't understand how come this disturbance came to happen in the first place.   I'll probably send the player...

Did send you a PM. Thanks That sounds interesting (and that might even fix that noise problem if the problem is with the capacitor - but as the unit is almost new I'd better get it fixed by the Ibasso team if it's possible (and the problem might come from elsewhere than the capacitors)) -...

Strange, experimenting with the player it appears that the noise reacts with the activity: if I write a file on the internal memory it makes more noise and a different noise, if I interact with the touch screen the noise is different too and reflects what I'm doing.   Any idea where this can...

  Hi   I have a similar problem. Some bzzzz that starts when the DX50 is on (not during startup, only start at one stage). Did try to switch to latest firmware from ibasso with no success (still the same annoying noise).   I don't understand why it does that, it used to work very fine and...

  90%... Do you guys think an amp would be needed to drive correctly the HD600 or HD650?   I heard great things for X5 + C5 + HD650 but some people seem to use the X5 with an HD 600 or HD 650 without an extra amp... Is the bass full and well defined - or is an amp kinda needed for those...

Thanks for your tests, Koolpep, pretty interesting to read...   Quote:   That's sounds neat! I guess we will have a pretty interesting read!   Have fun and.. thanks!   :)

  Thanks for your detailed answer!   That makes sense, I did read somewhere with the lattest (unofficial) firmwares DX50's sound quality was getting closer to the sound of the DX90...   BTW regarding sound quality & soundstage, was the Fiio X5 a huge upgrade coming from the DX50? With your...

Thanks for your answer; so it seems like the battery quality is high enough to use it for a few years? Regarding the change if you send the player to them, does anyone know if is it anyone with that player (based on the serial number only like WD does for hard drives) or only the original...

Hi   Quote:   That's interesting. You didn't feel the need to upgrade from DX50 to DX90 because you did prefer how the X5 sounded or.. there is another reason?   Thanks :)

Hi there!   New here, after having been reading the forums for a few weeks..   Nice place, full of knowledgeable people.   Glad to be here :)   Cheers!

Hi there.   I just wanted to know if there is a way to replace the battery on the X5 - if it fails in the future, will it be doable?   Did found one second hand not too expensive and I'm tempted to give it a try, but that non-replaceable battery kinda turns me off..   Did anyone try to...
