Can anyone help please. i think i may have accidentally formatted my dx50 whilst formatting a new micro sd card! My computor just sees the player as an empty E drive now and i cant send new firmware to it. any ideas please?

My experience with the iBasso DX50 has been one hell of a wild ride. Many bumps in the road, trials and tribulations along the way but somehow, as if by the grace of the Audiophile Gods themselves the DX50 has finally evolved into something functional. By no means did it start out that way, but...

I know that's a common question, but with a maximum of 300€ what's the best?

Full review coming in a few days.   My experience with the iBasso DX50 has been one hell of a wild ride. Many bumps in the road, trials and tribulations along the way but somehow, as if by the grace of the Audiophile Gods themselves the DX50 has finally evolved into something functional. By no...

Hi Guys,   I currently have an AK120 and waiting delivery of an iBasso DX50 to try out as well. The main reason for buying the DX50 is to see what it sounds like and whether the AK120 is "Sound for Pound" better.   Both of these players have optical out, or so I understand anyway....but...

Hi all,   I'm getting the AK100 and wanted to know if it was possible to connect it to a portable amp like the Fiio E12?   I heard it does not have a line out like the X3 or Dx50. So the question is, do I need to get an external Dac/Amp and if so, would that mean I would bypass the internal...

Hi guys   I want a DAP with large capacity for around $300. I was thinking of getting the ibasso DX50 but I've been reading about it's dodgy UI. I don't know if they have been fixed yet.My other choice is an iPod classic. I would prefer the DX50 since it's compatible with SDHC cards (128 gb?)...

I have been comparing my iBasso DX50 to my iPod Classic (7G) for the past couple of weeks...and, while the LO of the DX50 far surpasses that of the Classic, the DX50 keels over at the mere sight of the Classic when it comes to driving my 4.Ai. Using my HD800/O2/ODAC setup (the O2 is temporary; I...

So, I've just got rid of my last iDevice and now have an Android phone and an 'audiophile' DAP.   Probably the best thing about iTunes was the way I could create a playlist based on the way my files were tagged and have the tunes automagically transferred to my iDevice, and I'm struggling to...

I have been loyal to Cowon (X5L - still working) and 32GB S9 - because I like the BBE sound enhancement.   I also have UE TripleFI-10 IEMs and (don't laugh) Bose Quietcomfort 15 - I'm not a high end audiophile, but I appreciate midrange kit.   Now, my S9 is showing its age and I only have...

What player will be the best with V-moda m100?

Can someone help me in sorting out my music? I just clean and tag all of my music but when I try to play it on my DX 50, it plays it alphabetically while other albums it plays it according to the track number.    Thanks 

I know this is premature given that no one has heard the DX50 yet, but the comparison is already being speculated about on seperate threads.    The specs are very similar. Do we have any reason to believe, other than brand allegiance, that one player will be significantly different i.e...

My question is when using IEMs would it be better to use a V0 rip over a flac vinyl rip? I ask this because I put some flac vinyl rips on my DX50 and you can hear all the crackling through my Westone 4r.

          Will do a first impression real soon :D 

I have an ok car audio system (I hesitate to say good on a forum like this where good may = $100k+).   I just recently got the ability to have line-in so I can use an mp3 player in the car.   The DX50 and FiiO X3 caught my eye for two reasons.   1. The price is where I need to be.   2...

Hello all -    I got in on the 5th batch of DX50 players and will be receiving the player sometime after October 11th. Being and iPod guy for many years, I'm used to Itunes for managing my music, though obviously that will have to change. My questions are as follows:    1. Is there a file...

Rockbox for DX50 with cwm recovery Thanks to xzcc for porting Rockbox to DX50 Latest build and install steps from Cholero            

The iBasso DX50 player freezes constantly and cannot play music correctly. It almost made me go deaf.   My DX50 came running on v1.16, the newest firmware. When I was listening to some tunes, I simply pressed the volume-up button a few times, the audio instantly jumped to 255 (max value) from...

Hi everyone,   Thought i should start a thread where everone who owns a x5 and the soon to be released dx90 could post their comparisons for people like me who are looking at these two daps for their next purchase...   Dx90 is expected to be releases 15th-20th march   Which do you think...

Looking to upgrade my rig, currently using the color fly c3, sounds pretty good but keeps crashing and bugging out. Which provides better sound quality? A ibasso dx50 or a iPod classic with a semi decent 200-300 amp, when paired with se535?

Introduction A lot of people are asking how the X3 and the DX compare.  Since I have both, I thought I would post some quick impressions.  Please note that I intentionally did not title this a “review,” as I haven’t used either of these units long enough to do them justice.  I’ve had the X3...

I'm new to the iBasso line. I normally use Cowon players. I was attracted to the idea of 2TB of storage, the OTG option and a replaceable battery. Mine came with firmware 1.50 installed. I love the sound that comes out of this thing.   I was reading that they fixed the gapless playback issues...

What to do, basically want the most powerful one that has a smoother, bassy, spacious, warm sound. But its hard to compare them as the manufactures all put up incomplete specifications :( Having an extremely hard time picking between these:   HifiMan HM-603 Slim Xeulin IHIFI960 Hifi E.T...
