Sorry. I'm not professional in English term or music genre

 
Don't fret, even the Japanese themselves misuse the term.

  One thing I notice while hearing this DAP is that songs with guitars really come to life, the riffs really feels clean sounding.

Is that balanced or SE?

i think we would like to see more comparisons to daps like sony zx2, cowon p1 and maybe ak240 or ak380 so we can can get a sense of how it competes

I would add the Questyle QP1R to the list too.

Actually you can use a third party app specifically for folder browsing which can open music files automatically into the onkyo music app for playback, then with a press of the back button you will be back in the folder browser app where you left off before, or you could stay in the onkyo music app and browse the songs in the same album etc. Android ftw, there is an app for everything, and the onkyo's cpu/ram specs ensure it will operate smoothly.

if you read what the Indonesian user wrote in the last page, you would see that he said that didn't work for him.

have you tried any streaming services on dp-x1 ie. Tidal, qobuz, or apple music?

i am not buying this dap until i read about a solid comparison with other daps like zx2, cowon p1, qp1r
 
as enough is enough with the hype wagon that can be read in almost all threads for products listed everywhere, especially for daps, as really i find daps do not have that much of a difference among them contrary to headphones and dac/amps which make a huge difference in sq
 
you read wow a great dap, amp, dac ,,,, man i am tired of all the wows and then be smashed with a real boooo once i get a product
 
anyway i am still having high hopes for the onkyo dap but i will need solid comparison reviews before pulling the trigger

if you find daps don't have much of a difference SQ wise then i think you should choose the one you prefer the most based on the feature set.

Haven't tried Qobuz, Tidal is no go because region restriction and I have no iOS account.

Yeah I'll try to compare it at the end of this week.

Just got my hands on.

Been following this thread awhile, glad you finally got your hands on them. Like you I'd tolerate a bit of interface niggles in exchange for a stellar sound. Looking forward to more impressions from you. Congrats on the purchase. I think balanced might be the star of this gadget.

Music to my ears (pun intended).
Thanks for posting your first impressions earlier by the way. As you know, there isn't much out there!

If they don't have much difference, you might as well save your pennies and stop buying new ones then. Spend on headphones/IEMs/cables instead?

Does this thing will come to Canada officially ???

 

[Orky261]

Does anyone have any idea to contact Onkyo's customer service? I've been stuck trying to install XDAP app to interface with my DP-X1, I just can't navigate through Japanese site, they are much more confusing than US/EU based company website.
