$600 for a used dx100 is it a good price? Condition is superb.

I've actually not seen a DX100 that cheap (2nd hand or otherwise).

That should make somebody I know feel good as I sold mine for that plus costs.

My home rig cans are Beyer T1s.  They're tough to  drive, so I was thinking of this combo: DX100 --> T1 --> T1 --> T1?  Or is it bad practice to use 2 amps?

They almost scared me away. But I've had my DX100 for a week and I've found that virtually nothing they talk about applies to the average user, like me. 


New users who like to fully research equipment, like me, feel compelled to read through hundreds of these pages, starting from page 1. But the device now is nothing like what has been described in the first 500 pages. It's MUCH better. I think there should be a separate thread for the extreme modders.


For people out there thinking about getting the DX100, it is not nearly as complicated as the advanced users who do most the posting in this thread make it out to be. You turn it on, you load a file, you plug in your headphones, and then play. That's it! The UI is below average, but it's not completely unusable and it's not as slow as they would have you believe. I wouldn't compare speed and usability to the latest Android phone but, once again, it's not as bad as you would think by reading about all the mods people are doing. It takes less than 60 seconds to  boot up and start playing a song. That's less than my Androdid phone!


Given all what I said, this thread is still my primary place for information. Thanks all...

great post,thanks, appreciated

now all I need to find is a dealer in the UK who will pick up the phone and they have a sale

 

I know Toxic are highly regarded here, but a dealer (who takes a margin) should really have a telephone number.

All I want to know is does the current model being shipped have the latest firmware?

Frank is easy going.. Please drop him an email:

info.toxic.cables@gmail.com

Also I remember he mentioning that he was out of stock of DX100, and just got a new batch, so that means...

I just ordered a cable from him.

It looks like two T1 amps are being used. 

 

If you want more power I would try the RSA Intruder and have the T1 phones balanced.

Haven't had time to load music on it yet. Working on a Windows 8 project.

 

with that said, I did get it connected to the Andoid SDK on my laptop so now I can see what the DX100 is doing real time. :) I have lots of FLACs to transfer over to it.
