    Just to echo this and what's been said before. Without a case, I detest the dap's form factor, it's terrible IMO. With the case, whole different and beautiful animal. Thank you, Dignis! -Dirk

    Ah twin unicorns, nice! Honestly, I can't fathom the inconsistency in this. That alone is a black mark in my mind, but as the owner of one of the good ones, I guess I can't complain too much. Listening to Dark Star as I type this, pleased as pie! So Good!       I like large mouth bass...

    Well, simply put - there is not movement in the jacks, where as those with the original device have reported significant flex in the jacks, especially the 2.5 balanced jack. When I ordered, I was expecting to have to do the JB-Weld mod to firm up the jack housing but when it arrived, I played...

    You can return through buy Japan, just may need to deal with shipping costs. Mine came from Japan a couple weeks ago and has the fixed jacks so fingers crossed, you should be fine. -Dirk

    Yup, build number LMY47V. That's so absolutely bizarre that it works for me?? How's that even possible?

    Did you try it with a third party player? I couldn't get V4A to impact the sound on the native app, but works using any others. -Dirk

    It's a hard question as the inconsistency of the feedback is very high. Personally, I'm well pleased with it. I have my gripes but they are minor and mostly relate to the form factor, which the new case on the way should help ease. Others have had major issues. I would say, find someone with...

    Sure, steps as follows - rooted via kingroot, downloaded and installed busy box, downloaded and installed selinuxmode changer, changed mode to permissive, downloaded and installed viper4audio, downloaded custom irs file for my iems, set up and installed, disabled nuplayer and using...

    Have you rooted your device? If so, do the af.resampler.quality=4 build.prop change? This has virtually eliminated the horrible static for me in 3rd party apps.   -Dirk

    I disabled to af.resampler.quality again tried a couple of different players. Again, had to increase the device's gain to HIGH and was able to again hear it easily with poweramp which has it's own significant digital gain increase associated with it, but didn't hear it with neutron or the native...

    I didn't play around with this much as the volume wheel on the player only moves the volume up or down a couple of ticks and stops working, which means I can only adjust it with the on screen slider.   Irritated me so I removed it :P.   In my very brief listen (without 64 bit enabled...

    Hi Joe,   I'm at work so haven't played with your IRS yet, will do this evening and see what's what. In terms of the washing machine sound, I dropped a # in front of the af.r, rebooted and fired up poweramp again and bam, tons of static at low volume which wasn't there with af.res engaged.   ...

    Hi all,   Firstly, thank you to everyone who's contributed to this thread. An absolute tremendous amount of great advice! I received my DP-X1 on Sunday and am well chuffed.   Basics of my set up: Shure SE846's Rooted (Kingroot), busybox, etc V4A Installed, DDC for SE846 Using Native App /...

    "Mad Dog" by MrSpeakers, modified Fostex T50RP review

    As a counter point, I wear mine at the office next to one of the worst "noise pollution police man" types i have ever worked with, and he hasn't said anything except when I take them off to talk to someone and didn't pause the track. Granted, he's about 5 feet from me so someone directly next to...

    Quote:   I'm not overly fussy about aesthetics for my listening experience but I do dislike the stitching around the Shure's and will be pleased to replace them. I'm also hoping the real leather breathes better. The Middle Eastern hot and humid summer really cooks my ears with the shures...
