    iBasso DX80 . . impressions and reviews. . and discussion NEW FW: 1.6.0 ** link . . 1st page . . .

    I want to ask you guys before I make any assumptions: I use the DX80 to output coaxial output to my Hugo. I'm running 1.1.4. and whenever I play WAV files (which are 24 bit/192Khz or less) which are said to be supported on the iBasso website for the DX80, my DX80 freezes. Only way to get out of...

    DX200... finally a TOTL that I have been expecting for a while. https://polldaddy.com/poll/9236286/ Vote for the design. I heard that it will have replaceable amp modules and it is scheduled to come out in May although delays may happen.

    Sennheiser HD650 & Massdrop HD6XX Impressions Thread

    I find the HD650 to be quite fatiguing for FPS so I stick with my HD598s for gaming although I would like to try out one of the open-backed Audio-Technicas someday...

    Astell&Kern beyerdynamic AK T8iE Review (First Impressions from IFA 2015)

    I'm sure you might know already but MMCX connectors are known for going bad and disconnecting after a period of use. I think MMCX connectors should not be used at all. I prefer 2 pin connectors.

    Can't you get it directly from them? Or the Lotoo PAW5000 is an alternative for a player with optical out. Also, if you're looking for coaxial output, FiiO players could work.

    NAD Viso HP50 : Another superb headphone from Paul Barton?

    I may be wrong but that's what started happening to me before the cable inside the headband disconnected completely. For me, that's how it all began and as time passed, it kept happening more frequently and more severely. It took a while for it to completely disconnect but it did happen to me...

    Tried the DX80 today. Time to say goodbye to my DX50. DX80 + Hugo was also good, even better than DX50 + Hugo. I'll order it on Tuesday. :)

    Ibasso DX80

    I think the Cayin N5 does this (or I was told that it will become available through future firmware updates which I cannot recall if it happened already or not).

    Ibasso DX80

    I am wishing for a firmware update in the future that might possibly able to address this issue. Unless it's technically impossible because of certain hardware limitations, it should be possible.

    I was hoping for a bigger soundstage as the DX50/90 did not have the biggest soundstages compared to most recent DAPs. Nevertheless, all the positive feedback sounds good.

    Ibasso DX80

    LOL! failed miserably there, my bad. I am looking for the same thing for my Hugo as well. I'm getting a unit by the 11th to hook up to my Hugo so I'll be looking forward to that! Cheers.   P.S. I'm probably going to demo the DX80, Mojo and the X7 this weekend but I'm pretty sure I'll go for...

    On iBasso's Facebook page, it says it's native DSD.

    Thank you for the impressions! How's the battery life? I'm worried because the DX80 uses a relatively smaller battery compared to most recently released players.

    Ibasso DX80

    I'm sure they would not repeat their mistakes again like the DX50 where it took a long time (more than just 1 firmware) to get the firmware to stabilize (somewhat).   I hope?

    Ibasso DX80

    I am hearing reports from friends who are at the Japanese headphone show in Tokyo that the DX80 sounds great but the UI responsiveness is slightly slow (probably due to processor not the screen).

    Cayin N5 DAP - Product Info (Post #2), Resources (Post #3) and Discussion

    Hmm... I am yet to see a DAP that has a scroll wheel that does not have a problem with the scroll wheel. Maybe the scroll wheel should come to an end and everyone should move on to something like a touchscreen.

    Cayin N5 DAP - Product Info (Post #2), Resources (Post #3) and Discussion

    Nice DITAs! 2.5mm!!! I seriously like the scroll wheel although I would guess there is a difference in ease of turning the wheel between players. IMO N5's have a better scroll wheel than FiiO's but I guess it also comes down to personal preference.

    No. There is English but atm I think it's simply work in progress to get everything organized.

    Cayin N5 DAP - Product Info (Post #2), Resources (Post #3) and Discussion

    I wonder if that's intentional. I'm guessing it's added to make the battery last longer but it is annoying especially if you forget that such a feature exists and press the play button multiple times. I can't really find anything in the new firmware instructions that explains this new feature...

    Cayin N5 DAP - Product Info (Post #2), Resources (Post #3) and Discussion

    Well, after the firmware update, my player says it's got firmware version 2.0, not 1.something Beta. I'm assuming we're pretty much getting close to the final UI and sound touchups. 2.0 sounds much better than the Beta one I had.

    Cayin N5 DAP - Product Info (Post #2), Resources (Post #3) and Discussion

    +1 I could not have possibly worded it better than you did here. The new firmware really makes the N5 a top contender. I just wish it was installed when I first got it. IMO taking the edge of the treble does make the soundstage a little less clear or obvious but it's still one of the best.

    Ibasso DX80

    Maybe it's only a prototype. My assumption is that that specific sample would have a Beta firmware instead of a full release firmware. I hope... Or, do you mean the screen itself is a bit slow/unresponsive? or do you mean it's laggy?

    Ibasso DX80

    Woah. Isn't that price quite a bit more than the $359 price-tag iBasso posted on their facebook? Or is Audiogarden usually overpriced like that?
