It's quite easy to enter the LOADER mode using ADB, even from the recovery console (I've done it with DX220Max!), for an experienced user, of course. The worst trouble is boot loop. My bootable SD-card is the solution even in case of a boot loop, but not for commercial use, obviously.
Just for fun tried the Max with the good old Porta Pro. Listened to Eric Woolfson/Alan Parsons Project - Freudiana (24 bit). My Heaven, I never ever heard the Porta shine like a totally full grown headphone like this. I'm not an excellent review writer like ExpatinJapan, but if you are a Max owner, just try it with the Porta and let your ears tell you all you want to know (and hear).

Adb in recovery menu will be identified as rockchipplatform and unauthorized. You can't access loader mode when you are stuck in recovery with unauthorized adb.
Your addon mod has it simpler because you modified only boot.img and oem.img without messing with verity. Simply reflash image can fix it since you don't have to be responsible with deeper level of modification with system files.
For my project with real ROM modification and optimizations, you will need to access loader mode and flash factory image or flash stock ROM in recovery menu.
Regardless of the case, they're not solution for end user to follow and can make sure that they won't need to send unit back to iBasso or ROM/addon cooker for repairing.
I won't go as far as telling others not to take the risk of having soft brick your device but I'm not encouraging this and decided not to publish my own works for iBasso DX220Max until it's safe enough for everyone.
To be fair, I know there's working solutions and I'm waiting for official announcement about reliable method. I don't want to place a burden on iBasso for being generous to allow 3rd-party firmware customization and support.
Once there's official tools and instructions provided for support, I'll release DX220Max Purist ROM later. My main concern is to not causing the trouble to manufacturer and wait for appropriate time.
Yes, I can publish a usual package for AndroidTool. I could do it even before, because Paul just published the same AndroidTool, only the instruction is new But have you read the new instruction? From my POV, it is less straightforward than with physical keys, and people tend not to read instructions... With the SD-card, at least it either works or does nothing
By the way, the second chapter of the instruction is dedicated to how to make a bootable SD card from full firmware image (which, in real life, is also hit and miss process for an average user!), and I provide a ready to use image already
Got this inexpensive small protective case from local hardware store, works great as a storage unit for MAX, its small easy to carry around, and its fit the AC adapter too.
