No, the spike is in the middle of the song...heard it with K10 at 180 at low gain....and then it goes to full volume suddenly (..ouch...)
I flashed it now and try the same album again....

hope too. yeap its a quite nice player as stand alone, but having that amount of volume at your ears would be painfull
i use in-ears so im worried about this concern

Not the web site. All of iBasso's DNS records have disappeared. Even Google has forgotten about ibasso.com.
Seems like someone forgot to pay their DNS provider.

i don't think so. well i hope not...
My dx50 works good.
Not one crash until now but i really wish for some new features in the firmware.

I too experice a sudden pause fairly often running 1.2.8 with my old device. I just got a replacement today after returning my old dx50 with faulty physical button. I still have that pause in the middle of a song. I'm not sure if it is the volume spike you guys talking about because I'm on max volume running a amp.

Doesn't matter. You can't hear anything above about 20 kHz (40 kHz sampling frequency) and you need only about 13-14 bits worth of dynamic range for most music, so Rockbox is already higher fidelity than human hearing goes.

Im with you... But we will probably be burned on the stick! Hehehehe

For those of you who use USB OTG, would getting a 3.0 jump drive instead of 2.0 improve my experience or will it matter?

PS. Did any of yous guys who thought they might have a spare screen protector find one?

As for USB otg, USB 3.0 vs USB 2.0 does not make any difference on the dx50 side. It will however make transferring files to the drive from your computer faster assuming your computer has a USB 3.0 interface. And future proofing is usually a good idea if you plan to use the jump drive for other purposes.

Hi!

Looks like rockbox for android is close to run at dx50, we only need to replace a few drivers accessing jni with native linux ones (almost matching code can be found in rockbox for hosted ports).
I've managed to draw at framebuffer, output sound and capture keys/touchscreen events at dx50 using simple cpp code in ndk.

Well done!! Any tome you feel like you can start your own thread as someone here also said and ill join

i see that alot of you are having the volume spike issues...
those who have the volume spike issues are you guys using the HO of the player?
what i have encounter before is android phones that has these huge spikes when i play around the EQs on the phone...
after disabling all the filters or EQ on the android phones i no longer encounter this issue...

I think it is not just HO. I had sudden pause using the LO because we're already maxed on volume, it just doesn't get any louder.
 
Btw, the replacement unit i got came with 1.2.8. It no longer have the fabric pouch, instead it came with the ibasso dx50 silicon case.

Is RockBox still only 16/44 or can it do hires now ?

 
Rockbox can play anything including all resolutions above 16/44. It does downsample them to 16/44 but plays them perfectly.

  I received my dx50 today...3 freezes and one volume spike in the first two hours...not acceptable.
Firmware is 1.2.8.
 
BTW: www.Ibasso.com is down.

Make sure that your tags are in order AND that there are no rogue files on the card, as described in the FAQ. That should help 

 
BTW: Ibasso has ****ty hosting; or rather, their hosting provider has a ****ty connection. That's why I help host the firmwares.
