Lots of tracks showed noise never heard it before.
Detail and resolution that I have been harking on about, it is so addictive!
What amazes me more about the DX100 is that, the current wave or in the last 5 years of mainstream recordings where they are engineered to sound, loud and compressed dynamically. Albums, that I have avoided listening to like the plague due to sibilance, compression and the seemingly phenomenon, the trait of the soundstage collapsing into itself when the song goes in to climax mode have all sounded pretty awesome on the iBasso
The same said albums that used to sound awful and very flat on the Cowon X7 sounds wonderful on the DX100. No disrespect to the X7, after all, it is very comparable to iPods, Walkmans etc. For me, it is down to the detail retrieval prowess of the DX100, the resolving power and the expansive soundstage that it can recreate. Now everything within the soundstage has its own place without having instruments being on top of one another and creating a sound which was like distortion at climaxes in the song.
It seems to me, that my whole library of music is brand new as I am listening to albums that are mainstream and sounding excellent!
Leona Lewis hasn't sounded so good in months!!! The purity of her tone is a highlight for me
