lol that's his style. He did the same with the DX100 pretty much .
With that in mind, I wouldn't doubt he's an employee from iBasso.

Maybe he isn't allowed? Maybe it's an iBasso employee or something.
I'd say he's either an Ibasso employee or a Photoshop wizard.
Possibly he's not overly confident in describing sound, so makes up for it with pictures for us.
Although with the DX100 he did leave some impressions vs the Hifiman 801. Basically saying the Hifiman 801s sound next to the DX100 is laughable and a cute attempt at best .
Well Lin is correct in saying wagen's posts are all very "iBasso orientated" to say the least. One quick check of his profile and thread posts make that fairly clear.
It could be anyone, couldn't it Lee, O_o Will the detective Head-fi members work it out? We'll have to wait and see..........
Are you kidding? I love the 901 but the dx100 was more stable. The 901 had wheels falling off, a charger exploding and someone's iem blowing up im his ear !
And also I cannot believe how people are getting worked up for a week of delay...get a life. For UM's 3dd the delay is much longer and people are complaining but not like everyday...
Who's getting worked up? I certainly am not. I've dealt with the company since the beginning of this year, was one of the first to order a DX50, have been in contact with them (as they forgot to send me back my warranty card for my DX100 and are including it in this shipment), and am quite satisfied with them giving an extra battery for not providing the unit on time.
As for your 901...great! ::slow clap::
Perhaps you haven't had the joy of having a DX100 that was built in December of 2012 and you didn't have to go through what others have. It's common knowledge that the DX100 is quirky, finicky, and requires tender care. You call that stable? It's common knowledge that iBasso has zero quality control as it's evident from the sheer number of issues with the product.
But we keep using it because frankly, to my ears, it's the best sounding unit out there other than the Tera Player. I don't base my comment on anything but experience. I've owned a Tera, C3, DX100, and a RWAK-100. The RWAK-100 has far less issues than the DX100...but the DX sounds better to me. The DX is easier to use with Media-Monkey as far as playlists and syncing is concerned, and the DX comes with a built in amp.
Some people...as you say may be "worked up" because they haven't had to deal with a company like iBasso before...and no matter how many times YOU or I tell them not to worry...they still spent money on a unit that didn't arrive on time as advertised.
To just flippantly throw out your little "get a life" comment is not only rude but uncalled for IMO.
I think preference really comes into it all as well. Honestly going from memory I would not have traded my DX100 for the Tera Player. While the Tera has a very unique sound I appreciate the more Hifi sound the DX100 has. Regarding neutral sound the DX100 on 1.1.7 (if I recall correctly) was the most neutral I've heard a DAP sound and that was where the magic was.
I hear you bro...while I liked the Tera...it wasn't for me. Nor was the C3...
To be honest...what I really liked...other than the "high end" units...was the Cowon J3 with the C&C amp. Great sound on the cheap. Granted..nothing like iBasso makes, but then again...there isn't anyone else out there who is making the sound the iBasso makes...except for HiFiMan...and I've not heard the 901 yet...
So not even the 1st batch arrived yet? Shipping was delayed or what?
