I am using LG G2 with v.5.0.2 with my D14 and it works perfectly.

Would the D14 improve the overall listening experience when used with a DX50 coax out to D14. I want to be able to use as a portable with iem 32 ohm and occassionaly with a set of 250 ohm full size cans. Overall frequency response is important without any particular bias and I do like an expansive wide soundstage.
 
Difficult to see anything at this price to compare it with
 
Thanks for any information.

The D14 performs far above its price and will provide a significant improvement over the stock D50. It does make a tidy package, as it is about the same size as the D50. Given a compact coax cable, they will strap together very neatly.

Thank you very much for the quick response and the info on improvement with the DX50, I will be placing an order with ibasso fairly soon.
 
Thanks again

Another question. Can the d14 + OTG cable bypass Android phone's dac?

Yes, all usb dacs bypass the dac of the phone, which is only used if you use the phone heaphone output. But if you don't use apps like UAPP or HibyMusic, you don't bypass the Android sound framework, which is a different story.

Thanks will buy the UAPP app. Hiby music seems to lose your playlist/favorites if you turn off your phone.

Who has the dx90/d14 stack? How was it?

They stack really well as theyre essentially the same size. The DX90 with the Dignis case is very slightly wider while the D14 is very slightly longer. They work well together!

About 100 hours. I did notice some aubtle differences early on but past maybe 40 or 50 hours i thought it was pretty consistent.

Just a rough estimate as i didnt keep a hard tally od the hours
