Great cable!

Yeah it's so pretty.

I kind of regret selling my silver cables now, but I prefer my thin cables more.

Hi, everyone.
Could somebody help me out, please, with firmware download for ibasso dx90? I guess, the latest is v2.1.0.
For some weird reason, I can't dl it from ibasso site. In fact, ibasso site doesn't load at all today, though it did before.
Thank you

I recommended You download Lurker0 FW. It is same 2.1.0 as on iBasso site, but without some threads, that are not used and little modification for playing priority.

I love Lurker0 FW update. But, please, do something about this annoying not in order track playing in within an album.

When you amping the DX90, are you suppose to use phone out or line out? I hear little to no difference. 

 

[nmatheis]

Use the line out

Line out

^ Thanks! 
 
 
Anyone uses Fiio 3.5mm right angle IC? How does it compare to Silver Litz IC? I will most likely buy the fiio first, till I can save up to buy both Silver Litz balance and IC.

I found the fiio had a more "caressing" sound where the silver litz IC had a more "flowing" sound

Hi, i'm planning on buying the dx90. Can you guys suggest iems that are most suitable with it? My budget is anything under$400. I'd love to get iems with detachable cable and a low-profile fit so i can lie down on 1 side while listening to music.

IM02 would be good for it. An second hand UM3X would be great as well. The neutrality matched with wide soundstage and separation makes it a very neutral match .

For more musicality, you can try ma750i, im03, dn2000

Could you share a link to this guy's fw? It would be really helpful. Thank you for help.

I haven't

Use the line out

compared the sound between line out and headphone out, but the line out is odd on my unit. Usually line out is fixed volume, but on my DAP, have to turn the volume up all the way, just like on the headphone out. Makes me wonder if there is really any difference. Have to take a few minutes and compare them.

Yup, this has been explained in the thread and is not a concern. DX90 HO and LO really are different, and it's actually nice to be able to attenuate the LO if using more sensitive HP/IEM out of your amp. The main downside is the DX90 dors t remember volume levels separately for HO and LO, so you have to remember to reset volume when switching back and forth so you don't blast your eardrums out!
