  poor quality..the female port is kind of "loose" ...

 
A perfect match for the DP-X1 then

Hello, how is the sound DP-X1 compared to the new Cowon Plenue M2? With Single end 3.5 ? With balanced 2.5 (DP X1) and SE 3.5 (M2) ? (M2 doesn't have balanced output)

 Too soon...

Don't know about you, but I have found that the recent firmware bring significant sound quality improvements and, ever more obvious, an output power increase, especially on the balance port. Pairing with PM-3 is simply fantastic now. 
Playing Tidal off SD card still has some glitches every now and then but I can live with that. Still exploring to find out what else in new after the upgrade.

Second that on SQ improvement, Using my Heir 10.0 in Low 2 gets me the cleanest sound ever

Thanks. That's also my feeling when I was listening to Fleetwood Mac Rumours album, this morning.

Good to hear.  Has the output power improved enough to drive my V Moda M100 pretty well compared to my Fiio X5?

 

[sabloke]

My PM-3 require at least 10 clicks less after the upgrade. Pretty sure your Modas will get a good drive now. If only you could use the balanced output... Amazing with PM-3.

sensible sound quality improvements also with my iBasso IT-03 in balanced output......really amazing.

  Does anyone knows where the Onkyo Music player keep it's play list file in the Android file system?

i use that one. perfect fit and 10 second install. i dislike plastic ones as i have hard time installing them. this unit, just put in the middle and gently press and it installs itself

I'm amazed that there has been a huge difference in sound quality (whatever that means) with the following updates:
 
1. Enhanced Android system security.
2. Enhanced read SD card stability.
3. Enhanced the LCD panel brightness adjustment.
4. Added the new item in “Gain setting”.
 
Who knew that Android security patches could have such an obvious effect on the way the devices produces audio.

Perhaps you quoted the wrong post?

Well, the whole mistery might be explained by #4. Some 7% power increase according to my guestimate and that could easily explain perceived sound quality improvements.

Well, I would say at least, sound quality isn't decreased.

Has anyone managed to reroot after applying this update? If so, how?
