I think if anything the ibasso DX1000 price would be the fix to that risk. Its so expensive that I highly doubt it would jeopardize its other lower end products.
Perhaps so. iBasso is definitely taking a conservative approach here. I just hope iBasso will fix all the bugs reported THEN work on the features desired by owners / prospective buyers.
no it doesnt, the es9018 has inbuilt 8 channel spdif/i2s/dxd mux with switching (only on spdif, i2s cannot switch multiple sources) however there is no input socket or spdif transformer (not entirely needed but preferred) for usb there would need to be a reciever

So you are saying its a possibility for them to implement USB DAC function? If so they should do so as this would kill the 801 for sure. No question about it at all.
erm..... no, as i said the usb input would need a usb-i2s convertor/receiver, that or some sort of customized firmware to enable usb data streamed through the usb input to be treated as usb audio. adding an spdif input i would think would be a pretty simple mod for anyone with enough balls to start hacking their player at this stage =) it doesnt need a spdif receiver as there is an 8 channel one on the chip. that all depends on how they have set up the inputs.
i was only referring to the quote i...quoted, it does not need an spdif receiver, however the fact it has spdif output might mean it has some sort of MUX or DIT chip muxing the inputs and outputs internally, which would complicate things

Can we all make a pact not to make wild, sweeping statements like this, please ?? The DX100 has absolutely no facility for use as a balanced source - the 801 does. That might be a small segment of an already small segment of the buying public, but its one point of difference : I'm sure 801 owners will still be enjoying their DAP without constantly wondering about the DX100. The arrival of the HD800 didnt instantly make every other headphone a poor choice.
Also we are forgetting that this is the first DAP Ibasso has made, and the first 40 batch were (to me) beta products, and there promotional price somehow lead me to think so (needed Beta testers!).
So I am sure many if not all bugs will be resolved in the next batch, or Ibasso will be killing its own DAP.
My friend who works in a very well known factory in the US, advised me not to buy any newly released product. Fail is always an option, esp. if the company ignores its customer's requests.
So give Ibasso a chance, from 40 products there must be at least one defective unit, but Ibasso will soon reply our emails and sooth our concerns, enjoy your music...........
"Hi, Thank you for bug list. We just started working on the bug list today. Hopefully, we can correct those bugs in 2 weeks. Great jobs, you guys are wonderful. We appreciate this, even some of them arent bugs. Best Regards,"
Mischa, they will be working on the updates. Apps you buy from Android market are shown as update is available when access it thru your DAP. System updates are handled thru:
settings->about phone (or your device)->software update->update.
and Ibasso may release it as a download to pc then update your DAP when connected to PC. You have to wait .
