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

Do you just make cables for yourself? I was looking to get a custom silver/gold 4.4mm for my Stellia as well for the AMP8, but the guy who was going to build it has gone quiet.

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!

Sometimes I found myself being confused by my wife Twins (identical) Younger sister, especially when drunk and at night.....I used to be slapped in the face and that was when I realized the differences, but I no longer feel the differences.....probably my brain was optimized to ignore the differences

Just joking* lol

Will amp9 have se interface? What's the release date? N8 is too bulky so if amp9 sounds just as good, it will be perfect alternative for me.

hmm.. never thought from that perspective...
will try in the next mini gathering...
Thanks... will update again on this

Well the positive side, I got back my UAPP with ur add on... although Mango player already more than enough.

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

I see, thanks for the clarification!

hi Guys, just want to ask if any one encoutered the same issue I am having with UAPP.

As you can see on the pic below, the UAPP is in direct mode which reads my file correctly 96kHz but as you can see on the top most, it just displays 44.1kHz.



But it seems fine when using Hiby Music.

Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm running a test version of UAPP that recognizes DX220 and plays any PCM and DSD natively. I believe the next release will have it published. Meanwhile, for PCM playback, you may need to manually set it up.

 

[Sound Trooper]

Sounds good to me!

 

[JPlaquia]

manually set it up.

Big Thanks for this!

I’m no expert still learning but I know somebody who is I’ll ask him and PM you he’s name.

 

[Paulo Abreu]

Sounds good to me!

Great! Those are the Fostex? Great headphones!

 

[Sound Trooper]

Yup, that’s a pair of Fostex TH900 mk2. Pairs well with the DX220.

Excellent! I love Th900 , don’t have it anymore though, ut I am not surprised dx220 do it justice. My Hd800s can sing with Dx220 easily

The portable setup! DX220 with the Amp1mkII, and the Campfire Audio stainless steel twins (Andromeda S and new-to-me Atlas purchased from @AverageDude). Very different types of IEM, but both really rather lovely. The bass on the Atlas is really quite something for someone who is used to a Shure SE535 (years) and recently added the Campfire IEM.

Already really enjoying the single ended output, and I’m currently collecting the bits and pieces required to make some balanced cables, so I can try out the Amp1mkII balanced out and my Amp8. But the Campfire Litz and Pure Silver cables will do very well when the Amp9 arrives, I’ll wager...

In the meantime, I’ve also got bits and pieces for the Millet NuHybrid amp - looking forward to a bit of DIY fun! If I get a little comfortable with that I may eventually do some modding on the iBasso amp unite but right now, I’m just enjoying the music!

(But I may need to stain the case a different color. Really not my style)

Hi all,

I've been rather quiet on here lately.
Just enjoying the music mainly

Been demo-ing a couple of good IEM's - the Stealthsonics U4 ($499) and U9 ($1099).
It's been wonderful doing critical (and fun!) listening to them on the DX220, and in turn seeing what the DX220 can do.
Reviews of those, and, more relevantly, the DX220 to come next week.

It's been great fun. I'll tell you something, the DX220 has also breathed new life into my IT01 and IT01s, taking them to whole new levels.
Has anyone else had this experience?


Something for the weekend
