Got a confirmation this am about a promotion for us living outside of Korea. They also mentioned that it was not initially extended because of issues with warranty and shipping. So that's excellent news, Calyx is getting attention and they know it.

Good question, let those guys get the logistic cleared out and I am pretty sure pricing will be announced. They seem to be fair and cognizant of early adopters so I am positive they will work out a deal such that your wallet will be very sorry.
Agreed with you, you'll have to weight the different functions, pros and cons of each implementation. Don't forget the DX90 is a double dac configuration similarly along the line of the AK240, it's the amp stage that will make it outstanding or a pass, that is if you want a truly portable unit.

To be honest, I'm skeptical at the merits of a dual-dac design. It appears like a gimick that takes advantage of the common consumer perception that more is better.
Dual-dac design is complicated. If a single DAC design can reproduce the exact sound as intended, why would you mess it up, make things complicated? It could potentially introduce unforseen issues.
Right now Calyx M looks more appealing than DX90. Unless the dual-dac design and it's amp stage proves to be a huge advantage over M. Otherwise, the storage option, button layout, UI and additional feature is too much for DX90 to handle even at half the price of Calyx M.
i am afraid iBasso will again skimp on something, i put on sale my DX50 which is excellent for the money but needs amping because iBasso skimped on amp section. sadly my RWAK easily outperformed DX50 and amping DX50 which is larger than RWAK kills the whole portability, plus DX50 was very unrefined as concerns FW and glitches and some people also reported quality issues. i pity iBasso because DX50 is indeed very good sounding but skimping here and there worked against it
If Calyx nails with the M, I might become a big Calyx fan and continue support them in the future too. The evolution of M, their decisions based on feedback from possible customers etc they just play the game correctly, unlike some other fancy brands
ever heard of Bladelius, MBL, Jeff Rowland, Vitus, Magico, Zellaton, Da Vinci, etc...??? i can give you a long list of names you never heard which manufacture some finest audio gear in the world but among them will be no Astell Kern name.
They made high end audio equipment. Haven't you heard Femto? Check it out. Calyx says if you like Femto, M would suit you.
Edit: Yes, this is their first digital audio player. At the beginning (you can also check in the beginning of the thread) I had my doubts and they were still there, until they listened to us and changed the product. With all those evolution, I can guess, they won't live the stress of releasing first dap into the market.
