DX100 warmer Analog sounding. The other sounds opposite of that.

Hmmm...I'll see when I compare the two side by side. What I've taken away from the initial reviews is that 200 sounds even better than the 100. As for colder vs warmer sound. I don't think anyone has 200+ hours of burn in yet and everyone is saying the units are sounding better and better the more they're used. 
 
Unfortunately, the plane from China missed it's connection in Cincinnati so now it's coming Monday...oh well a few more days won't kill me.

DX200 available in the U.K. (Advancedmp3players) from 23/1 at £749.

Pretty good price!

Yep, I was hoping to start burn in over the weekend, but now have to wait until Monday...

Mine should be arriving on Monday as well.

Now we have UK availability the next question for me is is it worth upgrading from my dp-X1?

My two sd slots are great but not a deal breaker. I also have a dx100 - great sound but woeful UI and battery life.

SQ comparison dx200 vs dp-X1 most welcome! Would need to sell the Onkyo to fund dx200 purchase!!

I agree the sd slots arent a big deal. Who needs more than 250gb in a dap anyway. Soon 512gb micro sds will hit the market anyway.

Why did the price change from 869$ to 980$ !??

 

[headwhacker]

looks like Monday is a big day for us waiting for DX200

 

[Mimouille]

That is very encouraging to hear... Me likey full rich sounding players.

I suppose everyone heard things differently. I have the 1Z, not the 1A, but the 1Z clearly has fuller mids, and my DX200 is past 200 hours.

I will compare again when I have time to confirm my impression, but I am sick these days.

Setting sound quality aside. Of all the design concepts I've seen prior to release,...this has to be the worst choice. Looks like a big ugly phone.

Good that it isn't a phone then.

You will be waiting a very long time for an answer.

dx100 sounded warmer on the first listen. Less than one hour.
