Yes that is correct. I would check the file size. It should be larger than most.

Hmmm Mango is also reporting this file as a MQA... Guess I'll need to aquire a real MQA file to test further without pulling my hair out.

I have UAPP, Neutron, and the Hiby app. I prefer the UAPP interface to all of them. The Hiby app sounds better than everything I’ve tried. So, to each his own I guess.

DX240 and not DX300 but this intrigued me since I'm familiar with Hiby player. Installed and my results were interesting. In Andriod with normal functions, I liked Hiby player. Once I turned the antennas off, Mango and Hiby still sound different but there wasn't a strong preference. I prefer the solidity and dynamic of Mango overall (once the added glare of the antennas was removed) though Hiby is kinder to many recordings and I don't see a right or wrong choice here. I didn't listen that long but I could see Hiby doing well with multi mic'd classical recordings that could often use the help or bright recording of which there are many etc.

For me, Mango OS was an easy winner.

Has anyone else had issue with Mango player (android) not finding all your songs (where Neutron and UAPP does) since the latest FW update? It will only find 15k of 21k. I will test this in Mango OS and see if it is similar.

The DX300 might be my next dap! One thing that bugs me though, is the three-dot circular icon which is on the bottom right corner of the album artwork. Can it be hidden? It really triggers my OCD when I see it in photos...

It can't be hidden, it shows the current playlist. You don't see it with Mango os or you can use another player like Neutron or Uapp

That's so unfortunate. All that screen estate available and they choose to put it in the middle of the cover art.

Yeah and I see no reason why to use Mango/Android when we have full Mango anyhow. That would be like having a Ferrari, and a Corvette with a Ferrari sticker on it. Of course your gonna drive the Ferrari! 😂😎

You should not focus on that if you want a great dap at correct price let's go!

UAPP does the same thing with a "HiRes" sticker on the cover art when the file is over a certain rate, though you CAN turn that off.

Okay guys, chill, Uapp seems nice . Is the parametric EQ worth? I definitely need to use it.

I very much like UAPP. However I have never been one to use EQ but from what I have heard others say, Neutron is best know for it's EQ abilities.

Uapp is good too for parametric eq 👍

This is true but I believe another purchase is required to use it.

I chose to use uapp for bit perfect streaming via Tidal. For me to use eq would negate that purpose. Using eq cancels bit perfect no matter the player in use. That is my personal reason not to use EQ. The second reason I personally do not like EQ is because it's nearly impossible to find an EQ curve that suits all music. I end up chasing a dragons tail and find myself EQing from song to song. I'd rather allow the monitors and tuning take that load. But of course, that's just me.

IMHO PEQ in UAPP is very good. You have to purchase the Toneboosters module which (IIRC) gives you PEQ, EQ, and Morphit module....

I would assume less is more when it comes to EQ, correct?
