    Looking for a DAP with a parametric eq

    Hi @PolkManiac iBasso DX160 has a parametric EQ. I have been using it for last 9 months (since I bought this DAP). Very good & versatile but needs lot of venturing, patience - a steep learning curve if you will but really worth it. BTW DX160 only costs you USD400 or less (now)... Or you can...

    Sony Walkman custom firmware (non-Android)

    At entry- or mid-tier level, I compared Project Z mod on my ZX300 vs stock iBasso DX160. DX160 still better - soundstage, imaging & clarity. But it's a big step up, I must admit.

    Sony NW-ZX300

    Hi guys, Just want to share my thoughts & impression of Mr Walkman's modification Project Z on my ZX300. I bought my ZX300 2 years ago (in Jan 2019) at a discounted USD487 and I had been using it "loyally" until May 2020 when I bought iBasso DX160 (which was relatively cheaper when new @...

    iBasso DX300 Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 Octa-core 6GB RAM ******NEW Firmware 2.00 Android 11******

    Sorry to point out.. The volume knob protrudes out too much as if it is going to fall off.. Design on DX160 is much neater..

    iBasso DX160 - The listening experience only gets better and better. ******NEW FW 1.09 - link 1st page.******

    Hi guys.. I know iBasso DX160 has a great parametric EQ & what not.. Out of curiosity, have any of you guys tried MSEB (HiBy's version of simplified PEQ, DSP etc) from HiBy app which you can download & install on your DAP for free? Actually this comes standard with every HiBy DAP.. I tried it...

    Low end. Cheap. Generic. Otherwise bang for buck cable thread!

    I just got this HiFiHear 16 core cable with 4.4mm MMCX today for my XBA-N1AP IEM.. And I must say the sound is WOW! .. Sound is so much better - sound stage is wider, bass punchier & overall clarity improves.. Really worth it especially when it only costs about 1/20th of Kimber Kable sold by...

    Thank you very much for detailed review.. Good choice on testing with Hifiman Arya.. One day I'll get this DAC /amp.. Beautiful design - love that 4.4mm balanced port..

    Yeap, the Android UI is kind of slow & has some bugs.. Gotta be bit patient.. Especially when I'm coming from non-Android experience with Sony previously.. But it's still tolerable.. 😊

    BTW guys, after having DX160 for 4 days now, I noticed 2 software glitches :- 1) the PLAY MODE button (eg. repeat track, list or shuffle) somewhere at the bottom of Playback Screen can only function once you've got the next track. Say while you are playing Track 1, tyou press button to Repeat 1...

    Definitely.. Who needs SR25 which costs almost double that of DX160!

    I would have seriously thought of getting SR25 recently if not for the 2.5mm balanced port.. I don't mind the slanted screen display which is kind of cool.. Instead I bought iBasso DX160 last week which has 4.4mm balanced port & costs almost 2 times cheaper.. 😊
