I'm worse, cos I'd figured it out correctly on my DX300, then forgot about it when the Max came.

If you believe me, you just made me laugh my ass off. Out loud. Hahahahahah, this is one of the funniest things I've read here. Thank you!

@zen87192 Indeed. To say it's a true honor would be an understatement. Hopefully that tells you enough how grateful I am for having this incredibly blessed opportunity. None of it would ever be possible without @Paul - iBasso !

The bass performances from IER Z1R and 3MTi is Godly !!

I have never heard this kinda bass from anything Z1R related!!! This is totally insane. Suddenly my Z1R feels like it is into legendary kinda performances type of IEMs.

That trebles clarity though brilliantly sparkling

Sounds great. What about the mids?

DX300MAX-Ti with Utopia, another stellar pairing. 350 hrs burn in and I find every headphone I pair with this DAP just shines to it's best!!

DX300 Max SS with IER Z1R is spectacular too! New found love for Sony )

DX300 Max SS with The Bird……. No words for this pairing. I wish for more free time )

For those wanting a Ti, would it be better just to get the basic dx300 and then just wait for the Ti to get released again? I figure getting the SS would just be hard to sell later on.

There is no more production of SS or Ti.

We don't even know if it will be release again, and if it is going to be released again in "limited quantity" will it be all SS, or if they will include TI version as well.

If they are going to re-release 3Max, it is likely going to be Stainless steel only, assuming they follow the same ratio, if they make e.g. 100 units, it doesn't make sense to source separate components for ~20 TI units.

So in conclusion, if you are waiting for such units, you are looking at the odds of

1. AK4499 production will be resumed
2. IBasso will release 3Max again
3. IBasso willing to source components for a very small numbers of TI units (SS and TI have some different AMP components)

The odds aren't looking good at all.

Anybody using Plex here? The MQA seems to be not unfolding, it only shows 48khz but shows 708khz in Mango player.

AK4499 production can't be resumed, even after they rebuild the factory because AKM officially discontinued all AK449x DACs.

The system updater doesn’t seem able to detect this upgrade. Is the roundabout instructions mentioned above the only way?
