  Yes, probably it would be easier to add another$ 330 and buy a new one!

 
I am guessing you are not a financial advisor!  Why on earth would it be better to spend 4 x as much to buy a new one when $110.00 fixes a minor issue on a perfectly good unit?  Please tell me where you can buy a ZX100 for $440.00!!

I tought the same , better have it fixed for "cheap" than really going against the odds of getting a DOA unit for 330 more LOL, and well it is on perfect working order just was a minor defect, a simple button board swap. If it had been really really kaput then yeah I ould probably saved for a ZX2 or held my breath for September IFA

Is there really a $500 difference in quality between the ZX100 and the ZX2?

No. The ZX100 sounds just as good as the ZX2 IMO, but without all the 'bells and whistles', Android, touchscreen etc.

I talked about this many times, but the topic zx2 believe otherwise, I think they're just trying to justify the money that was overpaid!

Maybe. But it think the two DAPs appeal to different users/people. The ZX2 is great for streaming services like Qobuz and Tidal etc. But a standalone DAP for your own library, the ZX100 is truly unbeatable.
The ZX100 sounds truly sublime with high-res files, and beat my (previously unbeatable) DX90 into submission.
Since getting my ZX100, I've sold both my DX90 and my ZX2. I just didn't need the Android features and streaming features of the ZX2. Bulky and heavy too!

I just want to ask about my zx-100's firmware. As of the moment I haven't updated it yet since the first time I used it, now when I tried to upgrade the FW to 1.11 I cannot make the procedure and nothing happens when I followed the correct instruction. Any advise from the experts of this player?
