"Even the DX150 with its stock AMP..."
DX 150 is a very good DAP. His near to dx200. I modernizided my amp6. And I can say, dx150 can more.
I use my dx150 with tequila 1. And suits me almost completely this sound. I purposefully bought dx150. I was afraid of the cold dx200. The dx150 has small sores in the sound. But it's not related ak4490 and stock amp6. Amp 6 beautifully modernizarea even electrolytes. After that, these sores go almost completely. If I knew which op-amps are in the amp6, I could bring the dx150 sound to even better quality. As for the dx200, I'm not sure about the possibility of changing the nature of the sound of this DAP. And so I need solid proof of the improved sound of the dx220!!!

Well, you should have known better considering you are from Russia. Use dx150 with vodka, not tequila

SOLD.

That’s good that it supports MQA!! To stay competitive I think this is a wise move.

I recently picked up a few Queen MQA-CDs and managed to rip them.

Hi @Whitigir, you realized I was referring to the “other brand”, right?

So what's with the internals, I want specifics? And comparisons on sound. And all these interfaces are secondary. Sound is important. Already 2 weeks have passed from the 3 and specifics zero!!! In General, this dx220 is nothing more than a "Schrödenger cat"

Whole lot of things you want there. We’ll all have some reviews out soon enough.

Fully aware my friend. I am just curious what had you burned that bad , and I was just explaining to you regarding Ibasso from my own experiences

Just picked up a shiny silvery and maroon box from zeppelin. Added in the amp8 since there's a bundle discount. Can't wait to get this charged and plugged in

Talk about modification ? Check out EX-modification . Amp8W is already singing with Dx220 ! Amp8EX ? Only a few owners by far....very few and none has paired with 220 yet

I'm talking about replacing tantalum in the aisle. I replaced the electrolytes even more storage capacity. And added capacity in power nutrition. If I knew which op-amps ibasso uses, I would have made the sound even better. But ibasso is cut off at the marking.

DX150 is warmer and DX200 very neutral sounding but superior technically, it's the matter of preference. I did not like too much warm sound of the X5 3 while others liked it a lot.

So a warmer dap one can use a neutral or brighter iem. In a way eqing the set up. Neutral to sharp dap one can use a warmer or thicker sounding iem.

Oops!

I did not realize Pure Mango mode has a different look (like the DX120).

*I switched between themes to make the menus more readable
