That's what I said too! I knew it

I thought that i saw somewhere official information about dx 160 but don't remember exact page. Any way for me looks really strange when original page not give any info about their one of the most popular daps. Why is it ignored.. If it was some short period but it's not.

Nobody knows why the dx160 isnt in ibasso's website. But they do advertise it on their FB page.

Anyway, has anyone tried using their dx160 for a length y period of time without a case and screen protector yet survived without any damages or scratches?

Thanks, everyone! Sounds like they haven't been able to do anything about the Wifi problem. I had my 2019 version sent back to iBasso (for the wifi issue + screen noise interference) and they're sending me a 2020 version replacement unit. But judging from your experiences it seems like there won't be any improvement in this new unit after all. Oh no..

Just got a dx160 and when I try to use it as a usb dac with mango player MacOS doesn’t see it. Anyone have any luck?

I will be getting mine tomorrow, will let you all know how wifi turns out.
My router is a FritzBox 7590, normally that shouldn't be the limiting factor...

Have you looked for Bravo HD? That is how it would be listed. You would click on that and it should show then.

There is also a driver for Windows on our Download site. http://www.ibasso.com/uploadfiles/download/DC-Series-Win-Driver.zip

I apologize, it is mostly my fault. I haven't gotten a few things done for the website and the demand from distributors has been so high, we have been filling their orders and normally we have our products on our page when they are directly available from us, but we haven't had any stock to sell directly. I also realize it is good to see everything in one place for specs etc., so again, you can blame me.

Ya it doesn’t show up. Tried on 2 computers. Will factory reset it see if it helps.

Factory reset the device and still doesn't work. The window drivers won't work on a Mac.

Saw this post with someone having the same issue.

It's advertised as working on a Mac.

Another question, The SD card is kinda deep. Can't get a SD card to click in with my fingers. Have to use a tool like a small flat head screwdriver to push it in far enough to click. Is that normal?

The SD card is set deeper and a fingernail can be used or a rounded tool. This way the card doesn't accidentally come out. If you are going C to C on the Mac, you will need an adapter like a Prudo for USB A to USB C to the DX160. I don't know what Apple changed but their later C output won't work without the adapter with our daps.

i tried using a few usb c—usb a cables (including the cable it came with) on an older macbook pro and still didn’t work.
