yes and yes. The hardware button does nowt, ffwd an rwd are fine. I've just reflashed the firmware and thats made no difference.
 
Looks like I've got a duff unit.

Tad off topic but there is a pretty good deal on 64gb Sandisk MicroSD card at Best Buy: SanDisk-Pixtor 64gb microSDHC, Class 10 card, $34.99. Getting one for my DX50!
 
EDIT: Sorry, worked for me but that's the card! Link fixed.

Right the hw play button doesn't work at all now, you would think qc would check that the bloody thing works before giving it the ok. Now to see what ibasso suggest, has anyone experienced ibasso's returns procedure? Do they refund shipping costs?
 
Shame really, The player sounds quite nice.

Maybe the moving component under the actual button is seized down. Have you tried pressing / tapping on it?
 
It really sucks, but once in a while these things happen.

It would seen that it must have a dead spot right in the center of the switch, the switch is mechanically fine ( I can feel and hear it operating) but electrically its shagged.
 
I wouldn't mind so much but its the hassle of posting it back to Hong Kong and waiting for a replacement when this problem would have been noticed if the unit had been tested mechanically before it left the factory.
 
But such is life. Wont stop me playing with the rest of it over the weekend mind...

 

[disgruntleddave]

Ask them to send you a new one with a box and shipping slip (and/or funds for shipping) and you'll return the old one once you have a new functional one in hand

 

[Gitbags]

Well it can't hurt to ask.

My screen turned blue after doing nothing. Also, after I started playing a song and hit volume up, the dx50 shuts down. I already updated to 1.2.5 and performed a factory reset, so about this issue I'll wait and see what happens.

Well my machine arrived today in the UK 2 days after shipment and no extra customs duties added on - .

Loaded music onto both internal and external card. Had a slight panic when my micro card wouldn't fit in after several attempts and it wouldn't go in straight and it was sticking out until I realised I had it the wrong way round.

The player scanned the card no problems but it's only got about 10g out of 64g filled.

Very quick review - sound is wonderful, so very happy and Definitely has more separation etc. than the Ipod and the graham Slee voyager.

But at the moment, I cannot tell much difference if any between the DX50 amp out and DX50 line out through the Graham Slee Voyager, which is actually kind of disappointing and not what I expected. The GSV made an amazing amount of difference when paired up with the ipod classic 5.5.

Playing it through sennheiser HD600 and also my UE Fi/Pros

My take is the amp on the DX 50 is that on that basis it must be pretty good.

But logically the thing now to do is to sell the GSV and ..... Get something better, the question is what ........

 

[Mcberto]

What is the battery we can buy to replace it or switch when it runs out? The s2 or s3 battery? What's the maximum charge it can take?
 
Thanks!

Have a look at that thread, it might give you an idea.

Sweet jebus this sounds nice.
 
Even though people said it doesn't quite have enough juice to drive the HD600s, on high gain and high enough volume it sounds beautiful. 
 
I haven't had any bugs or issues with this yet either. 
 
I'd love them to add a 'rate music' feature, but more importantly allow me to access the 'delete song' option directly from now playing without having to browse for it.

All things considered, the DX50 drives the HD600s quite well on its own
