No need to feel guilty inquiring about your $764 purchase. We have every right to communicate with Ibasso and I'm sure they don't mind one bit.

In specific relation to the DX100, would anyone care to comment on which lossless codec offers the most?
I don't know how flac compares to alac, for example, in terms of how the DX100 handles each of them. I'm obviously assuming they are no different on SQ but what about embedded album art etc. etc. (or any other aspects one might feel are worthy of consideration)
I'm about to rip a load of CDs so any recommendations on which lossless codec might be best for my DX100 would be appreciated.
Cheers

ALAC tags are the same as well. I would rip it to flac so that you have more flexibility in the future (unless you see yourself using apple products later on). It's really up to you.
For me, I ripped everything to alac because I had an iPad-CLAS rig, but I deleted them all and reripped all my music into FLAC because of the DX100, and if I happened to share some of my files with other members, they'd appreciate the flac more. :P
One thing: it's quite annoying to play flac on mac... I had to change some iTunes settings with Fluke to enable flac...

I have read of some that swear that Flac is better than Apple but I can't hear the difference on lossless. I have both. And use both on the DX100. The artwork shows up fine (which I get from the internet for the album art). I am looking forward to getting my DX100 back and curious about the changes. They state, and I have no reason to doubt, that the sound has been improved and this is amazing as it was already excellent. Pretty exciting.
I guess some will have the DX100 later this week. I look forward to more impressions and reviews. It is fun to share in the enjoyment of good of music and knowing that you have the best portable reproduction system.

Please keep us informed if this works with the DX100. Many have reported that flash drives will not play without rooting and specific apps. I would be surprised if the DX100 will recognize a thumb drive using this cable. Would be nice if it does.- jamato8

Quote:If I am not mistaken, you will need a powered usb cable for it to work on Android, I was looking for a similar solution on my Motorola Xoom and Samsung tablets but never got any further, but if it does work then I would be most interested as an additional medium of file storage on the DX100.

Sorry to burst your bubble mate:No USB host support — Android 2.3.4 and the Open Accessory Library do not support USB host mode (for example, through
UsbDevice), although USB host mode is supported in Android 3.1. An Android-powered device running Android 2.3.4 can not function as a USB host. The library enables the Android-powered device to function as a peripheral only, with the connected accessory functioning as USB host (throughUsbAccessory).http://developer.android.com/sdk/android-2.3.4.html
