It's awesome experience with DX50 so far.  My PNY 128gb flashdrive arrived yesterday and I'm waiting for otg cable.
it's tempting to get one more dx50...one for the intruder and one for the kojo.
Final thought, it's great Dap!!  i can leave ipod, i'll be happy.  However, my Theorem arrived yestday.  So i can't leave ipod not just yet..

Medium Gain:  The DX50 setting that time forgot.

   Nobody talks about but with the Flat4 KAEDE it may be the best.
 
(I shouldn't be posting impressions so early on but day 1 and I am having a gas with the DX50. For $230 it is stupid good value.)

My PNY 128 should arrive today and hopefully the OTG cable with it. Funny that we're using the same setup. The jump drive should fill out the space that the amp bands need to make my DX50/Arrow 4G rig nice and tight!

I'm uising the PNY 128 as well with my DX50.  You will like this drive thanks to its very fast transfer rate.  I wish I bought two of these when they were on sale for $55 shipped.

  It seems like the PNY 128 is getting some traction. It deserves it - just because it works.

Same setup here. Also wish I had thought it through and bought two, I ended up buying a 64GB one along with the 128 to get free shipping but in hindsight the extra $20 would have doubled my capacity. Still nice to have 192GB running at all times with a couple of 64GB cards and flashdrives in the case to hold the rest of the tunes. $2 OTG from Amazon works like a charm too. I just ordered the Meenova mini card reader for some low profile OTG action too.

Good news.  Still available for $53 shipped.  Just bought another.

I got one too. With my PNY128 taped into place, that will be my add-on music system. I haven't tested it yet but in theory the DX50 gives a lot of options.
iBasso are impressing me.

(I previously bought an amp that didn't work out but when I returned it the customer service was excellent. Good company, I say.)

I'm on the hunt for that elusive perfect amp to pair with the DX50 and their PB2 is on my short list. I was aiming for the RSA Intruder but right now I'm leaning towards getting the PB2 and the Meier Quickstep for the price of the Intruder. That way I can just keep the one I like the most

Funny enough, it's not only the dap manufacturer who's making money but the cable makers, the USB flash drive manufacturer, the microSD flash memory maker, etc... We are truly making the business wheel spin!

You should really look into the Headamp Pico Power.  This amp have enough voltage swing to really drive high impedance phones.  Headamp stuffs sound really great.
