I run the DX160 with Audirivana and Neutron.
Sneaked in, it works the way I want it to.
New: When the DX160 plays music with locked screen, it switches off and on the Wlan in between.
This happens after 5-10 minutes.

Now I have the DX with unlocked display on the run then he switches the Wlan not off?
What is this? Where can I deactivate it?

Naptime will/can solve this for you. For root and non root users. Great way to save juice.

I'm trying to decide between poweramp or UAPP as my main music app. I like how much snappier the interface of poweramp is compared to mango (which sucks), but there is no way to do a trial of UAPP. Can anyone comment which player as the better UI? Smooth operation is most important to me. Sound quality being a close second.

Note that the trial is limited to 20 minutes of playback and a limited number of songs.

What the heck you hear interferences with an IEM that is rated 90 dB sensitivity? Even without using WiFi just by touching the screen? Gonna cancel my order rn.

I'm very sensitive to it. Honestly I dont think most people will even hear it. And it has to be a dead quiet environment.

It is slightly more noticeable when wifi is downloading...

The bigger disappointment is bluetooth, which is not the greatest. Short range and cuts if there's a lot of interference outside.

With all that said, the hiss noise is a lot better than my ar m20 player... and it's a great little dap. I hope you didnt cancel and hear for yourself first.

Sure, here you go, and thanks for the interest

YES! It was most comprehensive! I think your review did sway me to get the DX160. There are a few other very good reviews I read too. I was going to get 150 but then I saw this DX160, luckily I waited for a while till it came out. DX 160 was not even on the English website when I bought it.

Anyone have any case recommendations other than the Miter case? The stock TPU case keeps making me feel like my hands are greasy anytime I handle the DAP. XD

FWIW, I'm much happier with Poweramp's UI over and above every other music player on the Android platform. That said, UAPP runs a close second and has the benefits of a) bit-perfect playback and b) UPnP/DLNA streaming. Neutron's interface is kinda dodgy but I've gotten used to it over the years as well.

May I ask, what DAP so far that you have heard with 0 hisses ?

Thanks for the insight. I'm going to test out UAPP and see if it works for me. I prefer bit-perfect playback. I also noticed that Mango player sounded a little better than poweramp to my ears.

Bear in mind that there are recommended settings for UAPP listed by Lurker00 over at https://github.com/Lurker00/DX200-f...recommended-settings-for-usb-audio-player-pro

I've only had 3 daps so far (audio noob) ..all 3 had some hissing.. but dx160 is close to silence i don't have to use the ifi earbuddy.

oddly enough my samsung s10 plus has zero hiss ..

It seems all of those settings are not available within the trial version of UAPP. But I was able to turn on bit-perfect. But yeah after playing with UAPP and Poweramp, i do like the slickness of Poweramp. It also does a really nice job with updating metadata and album art. UAPP does sound louder at the same volume setting. Not sure if it sounds better yet, because I really need to focus for that.

The CS43198’s are capable of 4 different NOS modes or None Over Sampling Modes. Will we be able to get it in possible future firmware ?
