No Charger in the Package? What?

I'm now testing 2'th fast charge cable, but if it's not working fast either, i might just use computer usb 3.1 port for the charging with iBasso cable (no need to spend 100 USD on cables and chargers).

Even in TOTL DAPS, you don't often see chargers, right?

Would be so sweet to have 2x 1TB MicroSD's, MicroSD card reader, MicroSD card reader cable, Quick Charger, Quick Charger cable under 500 USD

I dont know. My Pono Player came with one... .

Seems like quick charging works now with new cable Sandberg 136-09

Aukey cable was garbage.

I use Sandberg cable on Aukey PA-Y10 charger and in 1 hour 50% is charged from flat empty.

I know few of you guys here have the ZX300 as well. So which DAP gives better SQ?

 

[Meelis]

What settings has everyone decided provides the best sound quality?

I have been on natural or original setting, but today i was listening Lowland - Classical Trancelations with reference and i had smile on my face all the time.

Congratulations on your research Meelis.

Now I would like how to apply that to the spanish/european? electrical standard without expending 100 € on chargers and cables by trial and error...


P.D.: Helpful info at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mains_electricity_by_country & https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AC_power_plugs_and_sockets



EDIT: I found the charger suggested by Meelis available in Spain via Amazon:

https://www.amazon.es/AUKEY-Cargador-Delivery-MacBook-Nintendo/dp/B0757KZHQV/

It's 30 €. Everything adds-up...

@Meelis , would it be enough if I purchased the charger and used the provided iBasso USB-C to USB-A cable, have you tried that?

@Paul - iBasso , any hints, please?

In order to take advantage of DX120's Quick Charge 2.0, you need QC 2.0 Charger at least and USB Type C 3.1. Correct me if I'm wrong

 

[Meelis]

No USB C 3.1 is not enough. Cable needs to be also power rating PD2 or PD3, you need to send email to manufacturer and ask what power rating the cable is.
Usually they hide cable power rating. I see many cables priced between $ 30-50 that have power rating in description.
100W = 5 amp x 20V
60W = 3 amp x 20V

 

[denzjohnanthony]

Just realised my phone's charging cable can handle up to 20W since my charger is 5V 4A. Now I only need a QC 2.0.

 

[Meelis]

Don't know if this matters but DX120 is 12V 1.5A
The USB A port on my charger was 5V 2.4A and this was no good.

 

[denzjohnanthony]

Easiest way IMO to make dx120 charge faster is to have Samsung's S8/9 charger and cable

 

[BonzerKeith]

I am considering purchasing Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro (120 ohm) converted to dual entry by "Custom Cans" and iBasso CB12 cable. Would this be a good match with the DX120?
Any comments would be welcome before I place the orders.
