Hello,
just a testimony about upgrading from Windows 7 64 bits to Windows 10 with DX90 and flac files. I was using JRiver Media Player to manage my music and listen but I was not satisfied - I found the sound a little muddy. HQPlayer was much more my type of sound - clearer and well detailed but I could not buy it for the moment.

I've upgraded to Windows 10 a week ago and... surprise:in JRiver MP the sound is much better than before. Clearer and more detailed. I couldn't believe my ears. I had to look at the options of JRiver MP to see if something had changed but options were the same.
So very happy with Windows 10 + Media Center + DX90 :) - but I asked myself what Windows 10 changed to ear such a difference. Too bad I cannot make a test wih HQPlayer - one month free test is finished :frowning2:

Sorry, it wasn't a question. I'd just skimmed the thread and seen this posted 2 weeks and 6 days ago:

Since then, nearly three weeks ago, I haven't seen you post here. I guess I was worried that even iBasso had sort of abandoned the thread. Evidently not. Sorry for the confusion.

I just actually sold my DX90 about a week ago and picked up a Mojo.

I use DX90 with Mojo, haven't used it on its own for months.

Paul - iBasso , I am a DX90 user in Indonesia, Jakarta.
My unit's headphone jack got faulty, so I replaced it with that of the unit's coax out. But now it's getting unstable as well.

Can you please reference a link to buy the female jack from, preferably easily accessible in Indonesia?

Looks like Chinese people, who mostly prefer my firmwares with original fonts, started to like 2.5.1L3: it was less than 100 downloads just yesterday, and >13500 right now, and still counting around 10 every minute... Or, somebody decided to DDOS github such a way?

I use my DX80 with the Mojo, I think the Mojo is better than the 90 but not night and day. Just moving on to the latest and greatest.
I think it is night and day, one of the few upgrades that gets you instantly. DX90 makes an excellent transport. These days I switch between DX90/Mojo & 901 with minibox. Those two are very close, each superb, just different flavours, eg AC30 and Fender Twin, Les Paul and Telecaster, Audrey Hepburn and Gemma Arterton.

Which coax cable (apart from the dragon one by moon audio) do you guys recommend for connecting the Dx90 to the Mojo?

I had a similar experience but I'd just bought a new PC and wondered if it wasn't due to the higher processor speed.

There hasn't been much to say or reply to.

Can you realize a folder playback function on DX90, please ?!

Isn't it already there? I'm not sure about official 2.5.1, but 2.5.1L2 or L3 should do, because I heard about folder playback with subfolders from DX50 users.
