So far, after a month with DX160, the only disadvantage I found is inconvenience to push play/pause button when the player is in the shirt chest pocket. My solution is the same as for DX200: Swarovski mod.

The crystal is 6 mm 2035 (Chessboard Circle Flat Back), Jet color. The fit and color match are perfect!

By the way: today the firmware add-on v.1.23 has exceeded 500 downloads, and continues counting surprisingly fast! As I heard no a single complain, I believe it helps you all to enjoy music with this wonderful DAP!

Compared to DX160, Cayin sounds fuller, meatier, denser. It has more bass, more organic midrange and edgy treble. It's not all that transparent, it has way smaller soundstage, it has lower resolution. Sepraration is only half decent and it's not as direct. The sound feels a little pushed back from you. System wise, it's full of features but it's android is painfully slow and screen is of very low quality.

I just published review of DX160 on my blog but it is in polish. I will not translate it to english so google translate will have to suffice :wink: Basically compared to DX220 I found DX160 still neutral but tilting just a little into more musical and engaging territory. It does not possess as nuanced presentation as DX220 but it sounds fuller. It's very close however, and to me soundwise it feels more like a warmer but still direct competitor do DX220 than a lower quality midrange device. Is DX220 sounding better, yes but only by a margin as it feels more reference and composed. DX160 is more colorflul and engaging.

I have installed UAPP and used it. It works for PCM recordings. For native DSD support, somebody (me?) should contact the developer and provide him some information.
