yes,now you see it now you don't. I would have expected this user to provide some minor review as a strict minimum.

  I find that pairing the DX50 with different headphones and iems can be quite selective...not everything works well.
 
My ASG-2 sounds surprisingly thin and with fairly harsh treble paired with the DX50, which was a bit surprising. I have no clue... my wild guess is that it might be due to the sensitivity of the 2 BA drivers? On the other hand, the R3 pairs quite beautifully with the DX50 and i think i might prefer the R3 with the DX50 over the ASG-2.
 
Really hoping my incoming rendition 1 changes that...
 
what have people been pairing with their DX50?

The R1 is a great pairing with the DX50 and honestly a strangely under-appreciated amp here on Head-Fi. A friend is borrowing mine at the moment, when I get it back I just might look into upgrading the Opamps... They're socketed, just begging to be rolled!

All covered up! 
 

The fit is flawless, but mine still has DualLock fitted so the cover is stretched a couple of mm extra.

Shure 215s and Fiio RC-Se1 cable hits the spot for me. Mainly playing Rock and Metal. No amp [yet????].

Guys,I was going to get a 128gb flash drive for the dx50...from reading back I know some people mentioned the PNY models,just to confirm is the one above compatible with dx50? just checking as I know some people bought flash drives that wouldn't work with the dx50 otg cable...

The ibasso silicon case has more holes than the jaben. Does it?
