Comparing the DX160 and N5ii side by side.



So far my impressions are that the DX160 has a bigger soundstage and better dynamics.

How did you get the album art on the lockscreen? Can't find that option on mine.

Using the Hiby music app

Quick question, can i connect the balanced output of the dx160 to the unbalanced input of my headphone amp? Or i should use the balanced 4.4mm to 3 pin xlr input of the amp? Will there be any issue on this?

Actually, think about it, why would you use a lock screen in a DAP in the first place? i suggest disabling it, it's actually more practical.

Not even mad about the blue

I see, thanks. Hopefully this will be added to Ibasso's stock firmware

@Paul - iBasso in the next FW please fix hardware PLAY button. When the music is playing and the screen turns off I can pause the music, but cant make it play again with screen turned off. I had to unlock the device, turn screen on and then PLAY button works. Its pretty frustrating. I think I had it on DX150 too. Im using stock player.

My quick opinion. No to the first option. It is a bad idea and it could damage your DAP.

Make sure that balanced is kept balanced otherwise don't do it.

Are you on the latest firmware? Mango works fine for me with the screen off. Now the other players, that's a different story.

 

[karmazynowy]

Yes, im on latest FW. I mentioned about it at polish audio forum too and it appears that im not the only one with this problem.

Thanks a lot. So I can use the 4.4mm to 3pin xlr in of my amp.

I did not say that!

Why don't you post an image (or two) of your amp inputs and we should be able to help you decide.

Does your cable split into two, for the 2 separate xlr inputs? (again show us your cable)

In the meantime do nothing until you are sure.

Anybody have red?

Has anyone been able to test the ibasso with the fiio Fh7? Thank you
