Well, I was planning to use it mainly for portable use, looks from the review it will fare better if used as an dac, well probably give this a miss

Mainly because you should see the exchange rate in Singapore here, American dollar has grown strong, probably due to the recession something to do with the monetary policy maybe

Just to clarify if I wish to change the opamp do I have to desolder and solder another opamp onto it? Or I could used something like this Image Gallery
and just insert it with ease and change it whenever I want
Correct me if I've used the wrong technical terms

Could someone please explain why it has a charge on/off switch on the back, since (according to iBasso) it always runs of the battery, even when connected to usb..

"Dear Sir,

Thank you for your email.

Yes, the D10 run off of the battery even when USB is connected. You can just charge the battery when it is low.

Sincerely

iBasso Audio"

They ship them as fast as they can produce them it seems, so they don't have a chance to build up a stock. They shipped mine monday or tusday and I ordered Friday 9 days ago. So if you want one, go ahead and order it, and you will probably have it within a week.

If you are using an ipod touch as a source, which doesn't have an optical or coax out, your money might be better spent on different, smaller, equivalent-sounding amp.

To extend the life of the battery. One should turn off the charge switch to prevent unnecessary charging whenever the computer is running.

Well at least the battery is a standard 3.7 volt Li ion that you can purchase many places.

isn't it 4.2v?

I am looking for a USB DAC/Amp for my laptop, which is an Asus Eee 1000he. I don't have an optical out, so it will have to be connected through the USB.

How does the USB input on the D10 compare to the USB input on the Pico and the Predator? If there is only a minute difference, I think I wouldn't mind saving the $200.

Also, what are some good full-sized cans that will work nicely with this amp. I want something with a lot of detail, so I was thinking of buying the ATH-ESW10JPN. Would this be a good choice with this amp?

Read HeadphoneAddict's review and comparisons on the USB DAC AMP thread, #657.

I use the ESW-10s almost exclusively (when I'm not using my 9's

)

 

[jamato8]

The USB on the D10 is very good. They use a good dac and implementation.

From iBasso:

"Regarding to the battery. Just get the high capacity 3.7V Li-ion or Li-polymer batteries. Also, if people do not mind to pay for the shipping cost, they can buy the battery from us."

Hey, we are hearing the same thing. I guess I don't need to listen, just post how it sounds from time to time. Cool, I have more time for other things. :^)

2.5cm works on both my H120 and H140.

 

[jamato8]

Yes, 2.5 works, is the very minimum and just works.
