Why they don't ship my DX100?


You will receive a phone call from DHL sometime today or tomorrow, to arrange for you to make a credit card payment to clear customs charges. Only then will they release the package and schedule it for delivery the next working day (i.e. not including weekend).

Well thats no good as Im getting this to play my FLACs.. so its the original player for me



Ya' know you could always download PowerAmp Trial (10 days? 14 days?) and if it really doesn't work (rather than just what we head-fier's here been saying), you could just delete the app.

Yeah will give it a go but will try and go with stock player.. for me the only reason I bought this is I want a  transportable DAP that plays Hi Res FLACS.. I have an iPad and I have a iPhone so not interested in any bling apps or wifi or watching movies blah blah.. just want simple pure hi res FLACS and a decent DAC..

.....but Fedex is much faster and better tracking system them DHL...


I'd be interested in actually hearing the DX100 when you've got it sorted and burnt-in.... you're not far from me (I'm in Kent) if that is at all possible.

Would be interesting to connect the DX100 digital output to a DAC like the Yolung D100 that's capable of displaying the sample rate it's being  fed... I loved the display of the D100 when I had one as it made it very easy to check if I managed to get bit-perfect playback working in Linux & Windows

Well done, well done. Is it still in circulation and why did you let it go?

Congrats to you new DX recipients!
This is my experience too.
Also I found a setting in Poweramp that allows you to change process priority from normal to high.
Regarding the mock locations.... this thing has no GPS correct? So I wonder if the mock locations will have any impact.



So, feeding us half baked cake? where is it?...

if it's for the full amount you could be in for a nasty shock believe me on that one, my friend from Canada cocked-up on my first WM-Z.... for a $100 value I was hit with £50's worth of charges including P.O handling fees... I learned my lesson as my Jap WM-Z (value $25.00) sailed through customs with only a £14 handling charge by DHL (they invoice for smaller amounts 14days after delivery).
 
Expect these charges if its for full value, they do it in this order... Import Duty, Handling Fee then VAT

Yeah you can still pick up the D100 right here, great DAC for the money, even has a decent built-in headphone amp. I sold it as it was just collecting dust for me, didn't use it enough. Project86 did a very nice review of it here

When I got that tracking message I called DHL and arranged delivery the next day and was told how much I owed import duty. It turned up the next day at around lunchtime and I have been in audio bliss since.
Not long to go for you now, hope you enjoy

Looks like you did your homework and the DAC is outstanding.

Cheers, just go it.Had to go they didn't deliver it, only tomorrow.Paid £ 7.63 for the fees.I cannot get the TUne in radio to work.It does play but doesn't make any sound.It does work on any other android device i tried.Any advice?
The DX100 sound good...out of the box...will take some time to make this shine.
