Hi folks! Somewhat long-time listener and first-time poster here. This forum is a wealth of great info. Thanks to the mods for letting me in.

A couple years back I started to become aware of some minor but still appreciable hearing loss as a function of many years of concerts (both as a musician and a fan). As such, I did the only truly sensible thing I could: I went down a path of upgrading all my gear! Amp, pre, speakers, subs, turntable--the works.

I also am taking way better care of my ears. While my hearing is still pretty good though, might as well listen to music in the highest fidelity I can. That's just good science.

I just purchased an iBasso DX220 and I have a few noob questions about it, thus my taking a leap and joining in the discussions. Noob question number one: should I post my questions in a new thread in Help & Recommendations, or should I hijack this thread as others have done? -> https://www.head-fi.org/threads/dx2...e-amp9-now-available-and-dc01.898388/page-521

As an aside, I also searched for the answers to my questions in advance, which included going through most of the 500 pages of that thread I listed above. Can't promise my questions aren't answered SOMEWHERE, but I made the effort! :)

Cheers!

Welcome, @Galactician!! It sounds like you have been through a pretty good chunk of the thread you list without finding the answers you are seeking. Technically speaking and just in terms of Head-fi rules and regs, questions are supposed to be posted in the Help & Recommendations forum. That said, in actual practice, you will find (if you have not already done so) that lots and lots of questions get asked all over Head-fi all day long. It's just the way it is. In your situation, I would probably just go ahead and start a new thread on the H&R forum with a title designed to get some attention for the DX220 and then list your queries in the body of the post. People will respond. Good luck!
