Yes, they sound just awesome from both M17 and SP2K.Are Rognir easy enough to drive adequately from DAP?
DX320 also have enough power but I don’t like what I mentioned above (latest firmware was used).

@Paul - iBasso please add ability to switch between original timbre and the latest oneI fully agree here. I updated to the latest firmware and my Monarch MK2 sounded awful— too much upper mids and a pushed back midrange. Vocals also sounded thin, harsh, and just off in general. I immediately reverted to the original firmware and everything sounds good again.
I wish sound characteristics weren’t changed via firmware updates without some way to choose between the new and old sound. Hopefully someone from iBasso is reading our grievances haha.
I also hope that Paul@iBasso reads our complaints and does something about this crappy sound now.I fully agree here.

People post links all the time. Very helpful.Found a 4.4mm balanced to 3.5 single ended, from the same seller. Is it allowed to link to it?
I found this out, and didn't believe it but you have to restart the DX320 4 times after updating to the latest firmware. Just try it.I fully agree here.

I am a little confused as well. Both from the amp and then using it as a line out for my electrostatics, very much, you are there sound. I had my big dac out, Audio Note output and interstage transformers, 6 power supplies or 7. Superb but big and put it back away.Hey guys...I don't now what you hearing but for me the sound ist top notch with AMP11MK2s (150+hours on it) and the last firmware update. At least with the U12t. I never heard a more natural sounding DAP, love it!! I'll try AMP13 this weekend..Happy listening!
IBasso engineers must be having a really good laugh reading about sound changes in firmware. But then they are probably used to "audiophiles" hearing things that can't possibly exist.I fully agree here.

How do you mean not possibleIBasso engineers must be having a really good laugh reading about sound changes in firmware. But then they are probably used to "audiophiles" hearing things that can't possibly exist.
What issues with the DX320? I have been using it since the get-go and no real issues. Charging worked right out. The AMP13 with a reverse volume control, then right away, like days, and that was corrected. I have never had a device that didn't need updates. I get them all the time on my Apple computer and watch, to improve and correct issues, and Apple has billions of dollars to throw around. My Supra, has had a few updates to the computer etc. etc. I had FiiO a few years back, there were issues and they did updates to correct them. Even my LTA Z10e has had a couple of firmware update to the control system inside of it.Same history every time with ibasso. Awesome product on paper and after a lot of problems with firmware, wifi, etc. With shanling dap never had one problem. It is a shame because ibasso hardware is really really good
Then you should have a look to the Shanling M9 forum..Same history every time with ibasso. Awesome product on paper and after a lot of problems with firmware, wifi, etc. With shanling dap never had one problem. It is a shame because ibasso hardware is really really good
