Has anyone else had trouble opening the 1.2.7 firmware img file? I'm downloading to an iMac running Mavericks; I've tried downloading both from the ibasso site and from the mirror listed in the FAQ.
All help appreciated!
The .img file is just a binary to be placed in the root of the build in memory as per the readme file that comes with it
You can connect the DX50 to the Mac and copy the img file to the root folder(an update command will appear in the settings/advanced menu), or copy it to a micro sd card and perform the update from the card. Delete the img file after the update is finished, then perform a factory reset. Verify the fw is 1.2.7 in the system info screen. hth
Cheers,
Shawn

Thanks, everyone. Works like a charm. I misread the instructions in the faq,which call for unzipping the file. Since the Mac unzips files automatically, I interpreted this as opening the img file.
My preliminary sense of the DX 50: wow! I'm going to wait until I get my Noble 4 iem's on Thursday before writing more.
The one downside: I'm not at all convinced that the JDS O2 amp improves things. Yes, the sound is a bit weightier, but there is certainly more harshness and sibilance than what I hear through the DX 50 alone. All this through Shure 215 SE phones.

i'm still wondering should i amp the dx50? is it worth the extra hassle carrying a amp around.
if i was wearing a headset okay. but since im using a pair of v3's.
sorry to hear that your um3x failed.
a friend of mine just ordered a pair of shure 535's. going to test them along with my v3s
also ordered new cables for my v3's he Fiio Rc-WT1 they look pretty sturdy and they are SPC. and the price is just incredible.
how much power does the stock battery have ? ( in mAh)

yeh a really annoying feature of osx. i was wondering is it possible to turn auto unzipping off.
Edit:
- Open Safari
- Click Preferences
- Uncheck the option Open “safe” files after downloading

The case is released.
it's approximately 30$(US). They said it's only orange color now, another color will be available next time. I think it's the first leather case for DX50. Looks great.

Sorry, I forgot the link.

It's a dignis case. It could buy only "Solomondc" company now, Dignis webpage is not update yet. I'm not sure but maybe you can buy the case in Dignis homepage and they will ship to other country.

is it really a leather case? looks like another silicon case to me.
EDIT: when i saw other pictures, it now looks like a leather case because of the top-side opening. kinda gets me curious of how "hard" it's going to be to press on the front buttons.
