I assume the DX160 doesn't have anything resembling a 4.4mm lineout? As the audio settings (or the pull up menu at front screen) only let me choose PO/LO for the 3.5mm out.

Still no front cover. That's what I need for pocket time...

I loved the DX160 except that it would NOT maintain WiFi connection with my modem.

For those of you who find that its WiFi works reliably, what brand and model wireless router or modem do you find to work with it?

Thanks! I love it enough to consider changing my router to one that has been shown to work with the DX160.

It's probably not your router. The Wifi & battery life of the DX160 are it's weak points. I'm lucky if I get 5 hours on balanced these days.

I get around 10 hours or a little more on balanced but it depends upon what you are driving. I am using IEMs mostly and regular res and some hi res music. For wifi, I get about 20 feet through one wall but I have read of some having issues and it was the router. I have a good router and with the DX300 get around 40 feet or just a little more.

WiFi connection is non existent unless I set my phone has a hotspot. Tidal app is not working since last update. Battery life is acceptable. The good news: it sounds great.

Hmph! Wonder if the WiFi on the new iBasso DX300 works better than that on the DX160?

The wifi on my iPhone 11 is excellent and the DX300 is just slightly better. Yes, it is good.
