Quite revealing when try Fidelizer....

Just wondering if you are able to try and compare it with the Mango OS with fidelizer vs stock?

As I am currently deciding if I will try and avail the Fidelizer Advanced Rom, but I am afraid that the improvement might be just on the Android OS but none on the Mango OS.

Well that’s a bit disappointing but that is what I am expecting as well since the Mango OS is not open source unlike the Android OS so basically Fidelizer has no access to do modification on the Mango OS.

Just need to clarify my assumptions hehe. Thanks

My distributor said amp9 will be arrived in Thailand at the end of this month. The price still not reveal.

So I believe it is very near to global release now.

$199 as usual. That is ibasso’s best deal!

Amp9 is confirmed to be only 3.5 single.end

Excellent! I don’t think they can fit 4.4mm in there LOL! Most importantly would be...how is power output ? Could it do full-size headphones ? Lol

I wish the amp9 has enough space to stack on each other to make 4.4 balanced. Maybe in the next nutube’s generation?

Nah! Amp9 is making enough power for IEM/CIEM.

Really enjoying this DAP with Campfire Solaris. Everything just sounds so correct, neutral and tight.

Other things I like:
- The sound quality.
- The amazing screen. My eyes aren't getting better with age and I appreciated the 5" screen. Perhaps I'll need a 6" screen next year...
- Being able to switch between Mango OS and Android OS so I can stay "connected" if I need to, and for listening to Tidal, etc. This is my first Android device.
- Simple to use and setup
- Firmware update OTA was simple.
- This device is solid!
- Possibility to change amps. Currently looking at AMP8 and AMP9 (and then all my amps will have tubes).
- I "bulk load" music files from my PC, but often I don't really want all those files. The DX220 makes it very simple to delete these files.

Areas for improvement? Not many. These are really minor.
- Scrolling long lists could be smoother
- Very slight pop noise when format switches (i.e. from DSD64 to FLAC)
- Ghastly supplied light brown case

Every other DAP I've had in the past I've sold quite quickly. I'll keep this one. Until the DX300 comes out...

Will try with Focal Stellia this weekend.

You won't be disappointed

I was just about to make up a silver/gold cable for Stella into AMP8 I might have to wait for AMP9 now.

Haven't even been able to try amp8 yet so on Amp1 mkii

hehehe... well, not only that, I also felt the Fidelizer DX220 need more volume compare Stock FW DX220...
Quite OK for me, since u get more darker background....

Mango OS is the Android, without Java VM. It can be "modified".

 

[Paulo Abreu]

Dear insiders, please let us know when and where AMP9 will be available. I am very very curious to hear impressions. Surely, I’ll check Amp3players often

 

[Lurker0]

quite difficult if there's no other DX220 in stock FW

Spoiler: A bit of off-topic...

Actually, you need 3 devices. Human brain is not optimized to find differences: if it is commanded to find a difference, it finds it even if there is no one! The brain is optimized to find similarities: this is how voice, speech, sound, also image, face etc. recognition works, which we constantly use.

So take three devices: 2x with one firmware and 1 with the other, and try to find the couple. Repeat it by flashing them randomly, by somebody else. I'm sure you'll be surprised by the result I mean it: with any firmware builds or mods on DX220!
