Well, there is a bit different, but consider neglectable for Unit... and still the same sound Sig... except change AMP etc.. IMO...

edit, yes, there's a noticeable sound sig between MANGO OS and Android OS...
The positive things, you have 2 different sound sig in one DAP....

To be more clear, are there sound variance between the different DX220 units you've heard ?

Consider No then... in term of Unit..

Firmware 1.16.242 is available via OTA, if you didn't already upgrade to it manually.

I gotta thanks fokta for introducing the UAPP as it revives my amp8fex making it sounds really good.
But one thing I noticed is that I hear a "pop" when the song's skipped or move to next songs on
fidelizer modified dx220. Not sure if this was the case for stock dx220...have any UAPP user noticed this?
This only happens every so often, but not all the time.

It should be possible. I think Youtube audio is 16/44.1

I can now confirm that it does work but the problem is the lip synch lag is so off that it makes it painful to listen and watch at the same time. I wonder if iBasso has a fix for this issue??

if we are talking the same POP. it appears when you are changing song from Flac 16 to DSD, or 16 bit to 32 bit... CMIIW...
if like that, then consider is normal (or not? been exp since beginning)... it was like something inside is switched. And what I exp usually only on IEM.. Headphone you wont hear this...

Well Glad you like it...
I love UAPP because it does reduce Hiss, and it worked on my Galaxy Note 8 with Solaris...

I guess you are right this is happening when the bit rate changes. This wasn't the issue using Neutron but UAPP is having the issue.
UAPP goes quite well with AMP8 as the sounds become leaner but for amp9 I still prefer Neutron, not to mention the 'pop' .

Stock Mango Player on 220 with 1 v.2 makes "pop" too when you change 16 to 24 or 32 bit or DSD.

I guess the neutron is only one immuned from this at the momment. Hope uapp can fix this in future.

Is there a player that bypasses the android operating system?

man the difference between mango os player and tidal playing same album same remaster is really big

i have no complain whatsoever using dx220 ,using its mango os player, but we really need a solution with streaming. well i tried something downloaded an album from tidal using some software ( dont ask me how , and then put that album on my sd card, and one time played it through tidal streaming, and one time through uapp tidal and then through mango os, man the mango os playback difference is so much better

why is the difference so big, when its been mentioned that tidal on dx by passes android limitation , what is causing the difference in sound quality and how to solve it, is that what what fidelizer rom can solve via advanced rom

For me it's the opposite. Anything from Android (Mango Player, UAPP, TIDAL ) sounds better than Mango OS. Mango OS sounds overly sibilant and almost unlistenable. I don't know why.

the dynamic range is better and headroom is way better on mango os, maybe ur iems do not go well with added details

tidal streaming to me sounds congested compressed and lacking in comparison by a big margin compared to mango os

something definitely is not right with streaming playback via android
