Has anyone compared the ibasso 2.4 with Lurker's?

Oh I didn't know there was a 2.4.  Is there a changelog somewhere?  There doesn't seem to be one on the site.

They fixed the charging bug then introduced some new ones. I have the last few seconds of the last track of an album cut off and some files just cause horrific distortion and are unlistenable. I'm really thinking of going back to 2.2 or whatever was before 2.3.

That doesn't sound encouraging.  I just installed 2.4 Lurker... I guess I'll try it for myself.  If not I'll revert to 2.3.  I can't remember when was the "peak" of sound quality now...

They are the same in sound.

Just trying it out now, my first impression was that 2.4 was a tad brighter and a bit more intimate.  Kinda close though...

I can't get away from 2.2.

Generally I know if I charged my battery or not. And pressing play in order to see the icon doesn't bother me.

The dx90 still seems to be the sweet spot for good clear sounding music, and usability, price. Changing battery on the fly, powerful, pretty small, digital output, and otg support. Not seeing anything much better out there. I was going to wait it out for the perfect Dap, but this is better than good enough. Glad I chose it.

and the real tiny side note is the freaking lousy firmware dev team

I seem to be unaffected. But I don't care for album art or playlists, or using it as a dac. Like I said. Nothing is ideal which makes this one the best. On my opinion.

I also noticed the sudden cutoff at the last song of an album.
Maybe setting the play mode from "order" to "repeat" will solve this issue?
I'll give this a try myself
 
I experience no distortion though.
The opposite rather. Just bought an Oppo PM3. What a heavenly combo with the DX90.
 
Still like the DX90 a lot!

I don't have any crippling problems. I must declare I only folder browse, don't use any repeat settings or anything else.
 
I think occasionally I have a track fade in/out but its not a tragedy.
 
Well, there is one thing, sometimes when you start from a fresh boot then select a track the unit seems to resume the new track somewhere...somewhere else...not at the start. A quick press of the back button seems to get it going. The sound is really great though, I haven't felt need to sell my DX90 on after owning DX80.
 
Actually I'm looking for a second one before the river runs dry.

It's funny there seems to be so many faults with the firmware, now there's 2 threads devoted to them

Or just one lazy macuser who has learned how to write but not how to read?

Actually, what we're doing is summarising whilst DX90 isn't absolutely perfect firmware wise it doesn't cripple our user experience, or bother us immensely.

That's what my post was for.

What was yours for?

 

[Happytalk]

Yes. I only folder browse, as well. Used the same Ipod for several years. Hoping this lasts as long.

My post was an answer to dcfac73's this post, and I've found only this lonely thread which can be counted as the second, with a problem which even me, Windows user, familiar with
