I think the point is that when they got things underway with assembling the round 2's, their software people had already fixed gapless and AIFF so they are putting the newest firmware on them...and there's probably a few minor assembly tweaks, like a 5 minute soldering job type of thing, to make the wifi work better and thus improve the sound.  Since most of the boards are no doubt assembled/paid for I don't think there's going to be any architectural changes.

Well that makes me feel a bit better then. I was wondering if they just wanted to save on shipping costs as they would ship out all the current pre-order units in bulk ;)

 

Still get my unit before you all... very_evil_smiley.gif

5 years down the road, I see iBasso replacing Apple Computer.  Buy iBasso stock now.  They'll be unveiling their tablet and laptops.  All of them with excessively complex DACs and headphone amps inside.

Lee, that is not how I see it.  The way I see it is that you are the first guinea pig of the 2nd round very_evil_smiley.gif very_evil_smiley.gif

 

I hope by the time they worked on mine they would have learned the mistake they did on your unit..hahahahaha.......

Hi, Peter,
We are going to recall the first batch of the DX100, and will cover the return shipping cost as well.
There are some minor changes on hardware. it make the sound better, better wifi signal. Also, the new firmware supports gapless and AIFF.
We will offically inform the first batch DX100 owner very soon. Please be patient.
 
Sincerely
iBasso Audio


Wow - VERY cool! Only downside is that waiting for my DX100 just got even harder...

Apologies, wasn't clear...didn't mean there are 2x guinea pigs. I meant the 350x March orders are the 2nd batch (2nd round) of guinea pigs to UAT the DX100.

Yes! Gap-less! I won't even need to bother with the PowerAmp app! This is awesome!

 

& even better sound than what has already been described quite unanimously as excellent?  This is outstanding. iBasso seems determined that their DX100 will be a Reference DAP for a long time.
