I have a question about the Sound Mode settings. Do I have to restart the player after changing the sound mode or am I supposed to hear the mode immediately?
I'm asking because I could hear absolutely no difference when I changed mode, listening through my Hifiman He-400i headphones. Do you hear any differences between the settings?

I would like to know if future firmware upgrade will ever improve the readability, because the way it is at the moment about 80% of my collection is hardly visible...

I hear any little differences only if equalizer is OFF.

Does latest firmware already have replay gain? My tracks have 27,25 dB loudness difference. Some of the track spectrograms are not even visible in linear scale (they don't even fit inside 1 pixel on 4k screen).
When i'm washing dishes, i can not tune the volume down with wet hands when it starts deafening my eardrums.

Well, I've made it through the 1st 40 pages. Couple questions. The single ended power of daps has always been a mystery for me. The 120 has 1.8 vrms - roughly 100mw if I'm not mistaken. I use to have the Shanling M2s, which had 130mw single ended, and it could not push my Beoplay H6 to desirable listening levels. Will this dap be any different? My V40 has 2.0 vrms, and it pushes the H6 just fine. The only other headphones I would be forced to use single ended are the Phillips Fidelio X1, and they are somewhat power hungry. All my other cans would be used balanced - plenty of power there. Lastly, can anyone compare the 120 to the Opus #1s? I feel the #1s is the best sounding dap I've ever heard under 400 bucks. And tons of power single ended.
Anyone? I'm trying to decide between this, the Cayin N5iis, and the astell and kern ak70 mkii

Thanks for the reply. Mine is off so I guess I can't hear the differences.

Hello.
I'm in the family now, Just order dx120. I just got the bit opus1s, but I had to return it because they have the issue with the battery.
I'm just hoping this dap great player to play with.
Please keep me posted! I'm in the same exact spot that you were. I look forward to hearing your sound and usability comparisons when you get it in your hands.

This DAP play great sound but interface is like a cheap DAP. For example:

1. Break line in middle of words, not between words.

In artist screen:

In settings sreen:

800724744b7a119f54dc2b4c0864afabbe1362fd7f3b6041b9de8174142a49b0d055ee8e.jpg


2. Need estra padding right. Text go back of scroll bar

3. Track information not legible. Is more important view cover album that track info?

4. Gain level show different value in differents screens with same setting. For example, if i set low gain in settings screen, i view high gain in play screen

Low Gain in settings screen

946895987c4692f7ebf99f2b04fdd4c1e2b89c8a39da6c2e8afc6a081394510b227d324d.jpg


High gain in play screen

5. Traduction ON/OFF in EQ Setting is the other way. When EQ is OFF should be show ON button (Activar in Spanish) but show OFF button (Desactivar in Spanish). In English language is OK

6. Translate to spanish is incorrect. Correct is:

  • Ordenar
  • Bucle
  • Aleatorio
  • Repetir

My screen is very sensitive or has any issue? When i press the screen and slide my finger to scroll, in many cases the focus is fire.

Screen detect focus in key press, not key up. So when I touch the screen and slide my finger, sometimes dap only interpret the touch and send the focus.

Does anyone have this problem?

i add videos of my problem. Is this normal or fail?

At the end of the video, jump two menu steps, when slide finder, select album ans track:


When try scroll in albums screen, enter in album track list:

The images are too big.

I swipe up or down. If you put you finger on the selection, then it selects it. If the screen doesn't work well for you then exchange the DX120 or send it back. But I swipe and have no problem.
