cheers for that. Have you found it to be a def. upgrade in the sound? Would probably like a bit more bass weight...however, really enjoying 1.5 at the moment.
I'd suggest if your after more Bass stick with official 1.5. I've kept SU 1.3.3 for a week or so now and while i do enjoy the sound - it just seems a bit sterile to me - almost seems like all the energy in my music is lost with it.. i think im going back to stock soon.
Having said that - it only takes a few minutes to change the firmware - so flash it and see what you think, if not flash back to stock!
I recommend trying 1.3.4 beta - it is the best sounding FW for DX50 currently.
I personally prefer 1.3.3 littlebit more. Gap is little though. Plus with 1.3.4 beta there might be some freezes @ bootup selection screen.
Btw, I just finished testing battery time (KINPS 3250mAh) with my DX50 with following settings:
* 11min screen ON time
* gain @ mid
* vol @ 196
* Piston v2.1 16Ohm IEM
* Sound Unlocked 1.3.3 FW @ FLAC-only / irr OFF / CPU - default
Total straight-on playtime result - 13h 18min
Next up original battery. I`m interested if it will last close to that replacement battery. Actually I`m not going to be
surprised if it even exeeds that playtime since those cheap batteries from china might claim everything on the label which it really is not. If I have time will test also SU @ irr on + CPU @ 312kHz.

it's upgraded, ignore what it says about the version. now turn player off, push up the lock switch to lock position and turn it back on. now you will get a menu to set up the options such as flac only. push lock key down to unlocked position and player will reset and boot up again.
