    Rockbox for iBasso DX50 dual boot with stock firmware

    I own exactly the same since 2014 : Rockboxed Ibasso DX50 -> ifi micro idsd BL -> Sennheisser HD700. I’ve had no need to change or upgrade, if the dx50/dx90 were to become unavailable for replacement; would one of the rockboxed xduoo models be a suitable replacement while keeping the ifi...

    Reply to review by 'ceemsc' on item 'iFi Audio micro iDSD'

    You guys must have your rigs eq'd incorrectly because I get a full range of frequency response right down to 20hz especially with XBass+ enabled. The treble extends fine hitting my top hearing range of 14khz, What this DAC/AMP lacks in intimacy, it makes up for in Soundstage size & depth +...

    Chord Mojo(1) DAC-amp ☆★►FAQ in 3rd post!◄★☆

    Thanks, I have now read the FAQs, does this mean I cannot use a regular 3.5mm to 3.5mm interconnect even though data gets through most of the time?

    Chord Mojo(1) DAC-amp ☆★►FAQ in 3rd post!◄★☆

    A good point as this does not happen with Windows to USB. Any reason why the DX50 or any Coax source would stop transmitting? The digital cable is a double ended coax with 3.5mm connections.

    Chord Mojo(1) DAC-amp ☆★►FAQ in 3rd post!◄★☆

    Hi Guys, I have a strange problem which I haven't seen documented anywhere else. I love the mojo sound however I'm getting stability issues where the music cuts out if I touch the rig to move it or when the rig is mobile such as in the car. This can be temporarily restored if I touch the...

    The Fiio A5 thread: an upgrade of E12A, MUSES02+LME49600, 800mW, 19Vp-p, 12 hours

    I have read that A5 is a bit too powerful for IEMs though YMMV. You would have to audition to your own liking to what works for you. Even top gear can't fix poorly recorded/mixed/mastered music.

    The Fiio A5 thread: an upgrade of E12A, MUSES02+LME49600, 800mW, 19Vp-p, 12 hours

    No you wouldn't expect phones to typically have line-outs. Double-amping should be ok for convenience so long as the source is not boosted too much however purists won't be happy as noise is still introduced into the chain even with low noise amps. My humble opinion is any headphone over 100...

    The Fiio A5 thread: an upgrade of E12A, MUSES02+LME49600, 800mW, 19Vp-p, 12 hours

    Surely you would like to think a 800+mW amp could drive 250 ohm even 600 ohm headphones? Is distortion or lack of volume heard with the A5? Even lower powered amps should be able to drive 250 ohms albeit with less Damping Factor.

    How to put TWO Fiio A3s together for my Cowon Plenue D??

    I mean put your setup on its side instead of using the A5 flat side at the bottom. Also if you setup the A5 the correct way around, you can have it so that the battery power lights are not covered. Anker PowerCore+ mini (3350mAh Premium Aluminum Portable Charger) Lipstick-Sized External...

    How to put TWO Fiio A3s together for my Cowon Plenue D??

    Answer 1) Why not make the rig bottom the long edge so all the connections can be pushed closer together before covering the battery lights? Answer 2) Why compromise the rig with the A3 anymore, use your best amps for this rig & use the A3 for something else... If you want extend battery...
