This is great news, do you know any details about the new firmware. 

they did not mention the details of the new firmware.
 
i guess we will need to wait and find out.
 
this week is the chinese new year so i think the release will be delayed even more.

A new firmware would be great mainly because it will spawn new modded firmwares. I've been absent from this thread awhile because I've just been so content with SU 1.3.3 with my re-400 and im-70 for when I want to do a little dubstep while at the gym. I guess I will soon dive into shopping for some good cans for my music taste but I am more than pleased with the dx50 and it's sound. I may have found my audio nirvana, though I hope to find someone close by with some cans I can test out to see how I like the full size headphones with it.  Coil has been super helpful here and just MAY have me find someone who can change out the caps, but idk if I would like it more since I'm so pleased now.  Anyway, glad to see the dx50 is still getting some much deserved love here.  Awesome product!

Hey guys
I. Feel a bit worried about the Jack HO
It would be loose someday, right?
How long it would be loose by itself?

 

[CoiL]

If You are pleased with the SQ atm, then let it be. But changing caps makes SQ even better for sure
You can always make a test rig like I did and choose the caps that fit Your taste.

Weird question. It depends how You use it. Nothing comes loose just by itself. 

 

[dadekusumo]

Is yours still OK coil?
How long u have been using dx?

 

[CoiL]

Yes, mine is totally ok. Been using it from July 2014, so, almost 8 months.

 

[7S Cameron]

Yeah, neither of my inputs have noticeably loosened up at all.

Hi All,
 
I've got a crucial question! My DX50 is on the first ever modified 1.2.8 with Rockbox (the initial release with the Mango and RB image for boot).
Do I need to do something special to updated to the latest official firmware?
 
I cant remember if there was something in the instructions back then!!
 
Steps I should do?
 
Thanks
Tasos

Got my DX50 in November 2013.
At the end of last year left side started to loose signal.
Month ago I had to open and resolder the socket.
Now works as new.

Every time I try to use it as usb dac I get blue screen of death.

 

[lukpe]

Are you using ASIO4All drivers? If so, check the settings for input, not output. This should do the thing.

 

[MuZo2]

Drivers from ibasso site.
iBasso Mango USB-DAC Driver

I should be receiving my iBasso DX50 soon...I'm wondering if I should use some custom firmware? If I did, is there one that's the best? It seems that Sound Unlocked gets a lot of love, and it's up to version 1.4.0...I'm inclined to go with that. Is there also one called Mango, or is that for the DX90? I see a lot of people talk about SU1.3.3 but nothing about 1.4.0.
 
I ask because I Rockboxed my iPod Classic once and was underwhelmed.

 

[CoiL]

SU 1.4.0 is also very good but I personally prefer 1.3.3 due to its presentation/imaging. What version suits best for You is up to Your ears and gear. Try and find out  
And don`t forget that SU has hidden bootup menu with different sound options to choose from.
 
There are also newer Rockbox versions of Sound Unlocked. You should definitely try those too if You are more into rockbox. Personally, I prefer simplicity and functionality of Mango UI based Sound Unlocked. Again, try what suits for Your taste and needs best
 
Mango is the name of official software/UI, nothing more. 

 

[U2Bono269]

I downloaded both, so I think I'll start with 1.3.3 and get used to it before branching out. I'm a bit of a tinkerer so I'll try them all!
 
Thanks for the info about Mango. I've been looking around for it and couldn't understand why I didn't find anything more specific.
