I hope that is something they can add via firmware update.

Can't happen. It requires a hardware component.

As I hadn't realized while listening: clicky noise while turning the volume wheel is normal, right?

I'm really enjoying my DX300. The screen is gorgeous and the interface is fantastic. I tried an M15 first, but hated the interface. The DX300 is so much better, interface wise. Still giving the sound some time to set in for me, but no complaints thus far. I just noticed something a bit strange though. I can operate the screen with my iem cable, i tried it with a few different cables. Dragging the cable over the screen I can unlock the device, and it will change tracks, pause, play, etc. I tried the same thing on my iphone 12, and it didn't respond. I don't think its an issue, I just found it interesting.

Yes, mine clicks. I like it, adds enough resistance to prevent easy accidental volume change.

Thx, doesn't bother me, was just surprised as I always had my ears stuffed with phones before

Might be a bit off topic. But i rarely see people use Cowons in comparison. Their flagship is LP right? I suppose its a bit old but i wonder how well it compares to recent generation daps does it still keep up with the likes of dx300?

@gnahra @uncle b hey folks, any impressions yet on your Andros?
Either burn in or source (was just listening to local music library CD flac Android mode in Mango App, Pink Floyd, The Wall) is the reason: My Andro Gold sound very transparent and full, not dull on the DX300.
Will later at night try my previous setup again where I found them too muddy, bassy and see if this has changed meanwhile or not.
What is annoying me a bit though for a high fidelity mobile setup is the relatively strong hissing...
Also audible in silent music passages.
What's your experience?

Unfortunately i have yet to receive my 300, so no impressions to share yet! i’ll share as soon as I can my friend

I haven't listened to my PL too much lately but now I will. As I remember it I was rightly impressed with it and I can assure you I will not be able to tell a great deal difference from it to just about any other TOTL DAPs I own. Right after I got it I was pretty infatuated with it. The non-android OS has a lot to do with it for sure but with ESS9038 dac chips it pretty much is state of it's art.

Gapless playback is off by default. Is there any negatives to using it?

Item 3 is the rub. Seemingly, the downloaded music can never be owned by user, necessitating endless subscription fees, which may not pose issue for most.

Item 3, that you don't own, is why it's called streaming.

It's worse than even that by the way, you could have access as to a track on Monday, there's a lawsuit on Tuesday, and you lose access to the track (even downloaded copies) on Wednesday....

Nope, its just ur listening preference, not affecting SQ...

My latest battery report: 12.5 hours, mango OS, high gain, 74 volume, HD800S plugged in playing mostly flac or wave down to 19/6 %

Nice! I just did a 12 hour run down to A4%, D15% today. Mix of M4A, Flac, and DSD, mid gain, 30 volume, IEMs and burn-in cable. Was back up to A68% and D82% in an hour using Aukey 39W dual charger. This is just fantastic! I can almost go on a single charge from Dallas to Tokyo!

Hi. I have DX220, that is great player.
I wonder does DX300 have Optical Output (SPDIF) like DX220?
Thanks

I have not found the menu to activate it in Mango OS nor Android side. Anyone?

Did anyone manage to activate the android dark theme?

I was looking for this last night and don't see it. I ended up playing with CMM themes and when it started to look like this, I figured it was too much and reverted back to stock, lol I'm going to find a more "normal" dark theme at some point...

There is no SPDIF optical output only Coaxial output.
Just plug in your coaxial cable to activate it.
