I'm using the charger from my Xperia XZ1, I had to buy it separate https://www.amazon.de/dp/B01M16UX1I/ref=pe_3044161_185740101_TE_item now it's way cheaper than the time when I bought it (44eur), the exact model is Sony UCH12W and everytime I charge it it shows "charging rapidly" and it charges really fast, didn't count exactly how much time but as fast as with my Xperia
Yes that is a "Quick Charge" charger which seems to be fast charging the DX160 for everyone.
From what I have observed in this thread not one DX160 owner has confirmed fast charging via a "Power Delivery" charger. This is not a huge deal but iBasso says the DX160 has this capability. I wish it would work so I could carry one charger and cable for my Pixel 2 phone and my DX160.

I bought the same one to solve the problem. You still have to carry two cables however since they use different USB interfaces.
I will try uninstalling Lurker's firmware tonight and see if that enables the Power Delivery fast charging. If that doesn't do it then it seems these units just do not have that capability.

I use an Anker PD charger and it works fine for the DX220 or the DX160. The DX160 charges very fast, around 1.5 hours if discharged, but I don't like to run down the battery that much, more by accident. It works well, just like QC chargers that I have.

Today has been my heaviest usage of the DX160 (about 3 hours or so) and I'm sad to report that it has shutdown on it's own 3 times. Twice while using Mango and once streaming spotify. This is very disconcerting. I have the latest firmware and only one installed app (Spotify). Anyone else having random shutdowns?

Not so common brand... Better watch out. If I may advise you take one from Anker they are great chargers..don't know if you buy from Alie but they are less expensive there.
My Dhas never shut down either, but they are still plagued with various issues. A demo unit I tried had an issue with the 4.4mm jack in such that the headphones sounded out of phase and only part volume when the plug was fully inserted. Mine is fine here, but I have now discovered my 3.5mm jack has the same issue as the 4.4mm on the demo unit. Time to move away from the Ibasso crap I think.

I know they use the Pentaconn socket, which is the highest quality 4.4 I know of, they are the originator and what Sony uses. And maybe your 3.5 plug is bad, I know my DX160 has had a lot of abuse and no problems with either sockets. If using a mic in line, that can be an issue. And there isn't a brand made of anything, that doesn't have an issue from time to time.
