If you want to be a tool to the graphs that is up to you. I for one will not stake everyone just based on a graph. While a graph can definitely be helpful and used as a benchmark. Many times people read too much into the graphs and can be lead to disappointment due to it.
 
The EX1000 is an example where the graph was wrong. Most people love their EX1000 and EX series IEMS for that matter. According to the graph there is a major treble spike in the lower treble region which one would think would make these IEMS very sibilant and aggressive. Well most don't have that issue and find that treble spike to actually accentuate the EX1000s sound. I am an exception to this and found the EX1000s very sibilant and aggressive although I am a minority in this. Just putting it out there that graphs aren't always what they are made out to be.
 
We also already know you have a problem with the battery life with this thing. How much longer are you gonna cry about it. Either get it and live with it or move on...

I just wish this was a bit cheaper,...and I hope they have a user replaceable battery inside. That means it'll be upgradable in the near future,...I'm not fond of carrying battery packs around. I carry too much when I move about already. 
 
As for my posting the link to the RMAA testing, that was about the clip/+ and such, NOT about the DX100. Some erroneously linked it to it, and that's a crock of crap. I fully expect this to be quite a spectacular sounding player.
 
And if you doubt the validity of testing, then you really don't practice what you preach. Don't spew facts & techno babble, then deny the testing - you make yourselves out to be blind wanna-be audiophile fanboi's. Too funny,...LOL!!!

@lee730: deal with it. I'll deal with ignorance,...it's part of life. Now, back to the DX100, and the fact OTHERS have also asked about a swappable battery. Duh!!!

Then be like others and disregard then,...I see no problem with you doing so. Are you that stubborn? 



If you are pretty much gonna be out there to insult other people then yes I will be stubborn. We all have the right to our own opinions but its still a subjective thing. Even those graphs you point to are not 100% objective as there are also potential flaws in the graphs themselves (human error). But dealing in absolutes in your opinion isn't right. Its basically stating "I'm right and you are Wrong, get over it" type mentality.

When multiple people test devices I say that's proof, don't you. As for me, I make mistakes all the time, and I admit it. Now, be an adult and move on,...and only be insulted if you can't believe in facts. 
 
Back on topic now, shall we?

Those pictures to the DX100 don't quite look as refined as the model we saw on the website. Hopefully its not because they are prototypes (or maybe not so good pictures)?

Any pix are going to look like crap compared to the professionally taken ones on the iBasso website.
