Type I paracord? I thought that Type I was solid core. I just ordered a bunch of Type II as I thought that was the one with only one core. I'd like the paracord to be as thin as possible since its for an IEM cable. If type I also has a core I might have to put another order out -_-'

Sorry whitemouse, I did not mean to offend you ^_^ What I said, I said jokingly. As for th emoney, for me these things are expensive, even the Sony you mentioned. So the apperant easy you wanted to replacethe unit with made my wallet cry a little. Again, I didn't mean to put you off. Sorry if I...

Wow, you must have money to spare willing to get a new dab that easely :eek: I have to work more on a budget :beyersmile: But I hope you have more succes with the new unit. The v1.5.0 is good. I've been using it continuesly for the past days and it performs flawlessly. I'm considering an amp for...

@Whitemouse, I'm sorry to hear you also have issues with the DX50. They are however not the same as my issues. It seems yours doesn't boot and function at all. Mine didn't boot correctly, but was functional for the rest of it. And while it's true that iBasso had a lot of issues with the DX50...

Hello hello, I've been away for some tie due to school and work. Anyway, I'm back with an update on the DX50. The issue I've had isn't solved. Ive returned the unit. My retailer replaced the unit. Actually I got a whole new one. I don't know what caused the issue. But since I couldn't find any...

I was planning to upgrade my iPod with a flashdrive, but it died beforehand.   Anyways, about the earbuds. Those must be Chinese Apple Earbuds. Those are marked L and L (Left and Light) to prevent confusion. Japanese Apple Earbuds are marked R and R (Reft and Right). The rest of the world...

Received a great reply from iBasso today. Their support isnvery quick. They confirmed my thoughts that it sounds like a firmware problem. I got a link to RKBatchTool. Long story short, it didn't work. I updated the Dx50 with both the current and an older firmware. Redid that with recover for...

Thanks for your help H20Fidelity. I have sent iBasso an email with the problem and my efforts to solve the issues. I have to say I'm in the dark on this one. The sudden loss of a boot screen suggests (to me) some software error. However, I expected that to be overwritten when I flashed it...

I got my battery and did a couple of tests.   - Battery Pull: left the device without battery for a couple of hours (old battery). - Various known to work USB cables. - Connecting to a wall charger and a PC USB. - All of the above with both the old and the new battery.   I found the v1.5.0 stock...

I've got spare cables and chargers, but no spare battery. So I'm off to the store to get another battery ^_^ I will try tour suggestions and report back.   Perhaps good to know. I think the boot screen disappeared after charging it for the first time.

  H20Fidelity, thanks for your reply. I'm not really sure what charge icon you are referring to.   When the DX50 is off and I plug in a USB wall charger the screen lights up black, but no icon is shown. The unit appears to be off, but the black screen turns on and off when it press the power...

I got my Dx50 for four days now. Got a 64GB card loaded with about 10GB of files. The whole thing is running peachy but I noticed that the boot is a bit off. It used to boot with an iBasso logo, then straight to the music screen. Right now it boots to a black screen and stays there I press the...

This morning I spent an entire class writing this post. Then it timed out and it was all gone -_-   Since I couldn't really find any data on read speeds on (any) player I decided to look at it from another angle: file types. On the interwebs I found the following table for uncompressed audio...

I'm counting down the hours, my DX50 will arrive tomorrow. The past day I have done vigorous searching to get an answer to the following question: what is the maximum read spead of the DX50? I'm perfectly willing to spend some cach on a fast card, but not more than neccesary. Beibg able to...

If it helps, the Klipsch X1 also goes by the name of S2. There is also a S2m version with inline mike and pause play button. Where are you from? Here in Holland both the X1 and S2 are still available. But I have to say they are from 2009, so I reckon they aren't widely available. Also, new...

I've heard good things about the Shures SE215, they seem to be great value for money. I've tried quite a few lower priced IEMs and had a lot of trouble with the fit.   You might also want to consider Klipsch. If you are going for a good seal the X1 is a good option. They are very...

First I bought a Minidisk decka while ago which came with a load of extra cables. Most of them rubbish, but one a Van Der Hul interconnect. I replaced it with my Hama intconnect and now I can't hear much difference between my optical and coax. I discovered this by accident, I thought I had it...

Has anyone mentioned Zooey Deschanel yet? I love to hear her sing in She & Him.

I've been stalking this thread for way to long. Today my Fiio LOD broke down and I had to fix me a new one. So I figured "why not share in that this thread?" Then I remembered all the amazing cables and felt a bit depressed... ^_^ I'm going to chip in anyway!   It's made from material I had...

If they are near the £40,- mark I might consider buying a new pair. Knowing the risk... I know. But I still haven't found a proper replacement for the K450's I really liked the sound. I mailed AKG several times concearning this problem but did not get a songle reply. In the end I even send a...

I'm kind of reviving this thread because of the experience I have had with the L1 Fiio LOD. A while ago someone mentioned build issues in the L1, I didn't notice any back then but now the right channel has started to crackle. I opened the connector and saw that it must have been made by a...

You know when you are an audiophile when people on the train curiously watch you boot you mobile music device, amp, and headphones. And you can almost hear them thinking "That's no bomb is it?" at the sight of all the wires and blinking lights...

A few days ago I found an (ancient) wireless headphone set in the attic. It's a Philips wireless headphone set which uses infrared. The thing is, its battery is busted. I replaced it with regular batteries and it works, but it's not ideal. I'm wondering if such a thing still exists. All...
