I'm on 1.22 (went back from 1.27), scanning time is horrendous (around 20minutes now). How can I know if it's just stuck and what could be the cause? Illegal file names/types?

Sorry if it's been asked before, too many pages to go through

Much appreciated

Yay, finished! Anyone reading this in the same situation- don't be discouraged :> 20-25 minutes but it did end ! Hooray
 

Yep, 1.2.6 and 1.2.7 do bring to the table a VAST improvement in scanning functionality

… you do have to find the sound signature acceptable, of course

Idle hands + leftover solidcore silver cable = New, silver IC for me 

 

 

 

 
I'm pretty sure my soldering station has paid for itself a couple of times over

haha why make such a long IC. Cant you just turn the DX50 the other way?
 
Or is it like an OCD thing where you need both to face the same way?

Excellent!
 
I also made one with solid silver Siltech interconnects that were lying dormant in my drawer, terminated with Neutriks...

You guessed it! I need the headphone output of the PB2 facing towards me when my rig is on the table. This also lets me have both units connected to to their chargers while at my desk.

Thanks! Be sure to post pictures of your work!

Soren, do you have any better pictures of the DX50 with the PB2?

Exactly like that, that is one fine looking rig. I will post some pictures of my DX50/D42 rig soon.

Um, the iBasso website seems to have been hijacked. Should we be worried?

iBasso appears to have changed site addresses.  It is now here: http://ibasso.info/

Speaking of the DX50, here are some pics of my current home system (Please pardon the dust):

Loved the Lyr when I had it, great little amp....huge bang for buck till you get crazy rolling the 6dj8 hah.  Make sure you roll in some lorenz stuggarts/amperex CEN-CEP/amperex white labels in....probably the best I've heard.....ccAs are a bit over rated for the amp IMO.   I need to upgrade to 1.27 and see what the fuss is about, 1.22 has been just fine for me.

Let's just say I've spent over $3K rolling tubes into the Lyr including most all the ones you mentioned...

  I am currently using Philip Miniwatt E88CC SQ and finding them to be a great all-around tube.  I had six sets of Lorenz Stuttgarts in various forms at one time (when they were $50 ea. from TubeMonger).  The only ones I haven't listened to (yet) are the Amperex USN-CEP tubes.
 
I was using a laptop as my source but as soon as the DX50 firmware fixed the gapless, it took over as my digital transport.

Thanks!  I had to move into a smaller place and it doesn't take up much room at all!
