Anyone here has upgraded to DX150 after using DX80 or has listened to both of them?

I have been using DX80 for more than 2 years and have been looking to upgrade to an android based player for streaming and bluetooth functionality as well. Could anyone please comment on the sound quality difference between the DX80 and DX150?
Any suggestions would be helpful!

I’m not sure. Moon does make good stuff however it’s a digital cable so it shouldn’t make a difference.
Yes, but should be the same for USB cables... And some claim they hear a difference... (I have a USB curious cable Hugo link since a few days, and have a feeling I can hear some différence too).
So why not for coaxial cables ?

Another question : I plan to use the Dx150 only as a digital transport for my Hugo 2, with Neutron or UAAP for the parametric equalizer.
What would you recommend as alternative ROM (or kernel) ?

Any of you guys got a problem with the screen, especially with registering clicks , sometimes I got to click harder for a click to register...
I found I had to remove the factory installed screen protector (I know, I know) to get it to register any touch (this is probably something to do with me, I've had the problem with other capacitance-touch screens). Once the screen protector was removed, all was well, only misses occasionally.

Any advice ? Who has tested ?

So I've had my DX150 a little over a week now and it has about 160 hours of burn in on it now with either the burn in cable or a set of headphones that I was listening to. How long do you guys recommend burning in the DX150?

I don’t think the sound will change that much now, so I guess you should pair them up with different headphones now?
What amp module are you using?

If that was a reply to my post? I am using Amp 6. I eventually would like to get Amp 8.
