    iBasso DX170 You want your Music? It is right here. *** NEW Firmware: 1.06 Apple support and other additions! ***

    Good evening, I'm not going to try to compare the DX170 to the Cayin N3 Ultra or the Hiby RS2, they are all three different. They are certainly in a similar price range but their characteristics are very different. And if you mention his models it is because they interest you. The only advice I...

    Good evening, Sure, but when we started this discussion the online update was not yet available. If you were able to update it like this then it is better for "Jamato8" to do it this way given its difficulties in doing so with an SD card. Personally, I prefer to do it from an SD card, it's...

    Good evening, I'm going to try to help you one last time because I don't really know how to help you anymore. Please pay attention to the file names to the nearest character. You must download the file: - DX170FW-ota-v1.06.zip you must unzip it and in the "DX170FW-ota-v1.06" folder you will...

    iBasso DX170 You want your Music? It is right here. *** NEW Firmware: 1.06 Apple support and other additions! ***

    Good evening, So you have installed your SD card with the file: “DX170_full_ota_1.06.490.zip” important, this is exactly the name you need (the zip file which is inside the downloaded file). And you passed it to the first level (root) of the SD card. You can restart your DX170 to ensure that...

    iBasso DX170 You want your Music? It is right here. *** NEW Firmware: 1.06 Apple support and other additions! ***

    Good evening, It is always better to install firmware updates. If I advise against using the DX170 for streaming (listening to Spotify, Deezer, Qobuz, Tydal, AppleMusic, etc.) it is because the DX170 only has 2GB of RAM and a fairly small battery. If you download Hi-Res music to listen to it...

    iBasso DX170 You want your Music? It is right here. *** NEW Firmware: 1.06 Apple support and other additions! ***

    Good evening, it's quite simple: - Download the file to your Mac or PC: - "DX170FW-ota-v1.06.zip" it is a Zip archive which contains another archive and a text file. - On your computer you unpack this archive. Inside there will be the file "DX170_full_ota_1.06.490.zip" and the file...

    Good morning, Your test, which has the merit of physically comparing different DAPs, confirms what I mentioned. The DX170 has very good sound, very good manufacturing quality and a very fair price but unfortunately because of its processor and the little RAM, it limits its use. Very good for...

    Good evening, Hiby and Sony are the two DAP brands that have almost all of their latest products running Android 12 and 13. For the moment Shanling, Fiio and Astern & Kern are far behind with Android 9, 10 and very little of 11. Ibasso has all its products released since 2021 which have either...

    iBasso DX170 You want your Music? It is right here. *** NEW Firmware: 1.06 Apple support and other additions! ***

    Good morning, It all depends on your budget and your way of listening to music. The DX170 for a budget of less than €450 is a very good choice for the following reasons: - very good balanced sound which is equally suitable for Pop, Jazz, Classics, Electronic… - much smaller than an iPhone 11...

    Good morning Looking a little closer at your headset, I saw that it is a noise canceling headset that works either via bluetooth or wired and with a battery. Its operation does not allow use without food of the entire noise reduction and sound management system. Which means that if the battery...

    iBasso DX170 You want your Music? It is right here. *** NEW Firmware: 1.06 Apple support and other additions! ***

    Good evening, It all depends on your use. The DX170 is the entry level at iBasso. It only has 2GB of RAM which is the reason for its slowness but we can get used to it. For me the DX170 is not really suitable for streaming use because in this case the Wifi is activated, the battery will drain...

    Thank you for these suggestions. I also saw Onkyo HF Player which also manages composers. I haven't yet looked at what Foobar looks like on Android. I really like Mango Player's very neat interface. While waiting for iBasso, I hope, to integrate composer management. At worst, I will use Onkyo...

    Good evening, you indicate that you list everything in alphabetical order but the alphabetical order of what? let's take for example the album of Vivaldi's 4 seasons conducted by Claude Abbado and with Victoria Mullova as Violin in 1987. I also have Vivaldi's 4 seasons conducted by Claude...

    Hello everyone and Happy New Year 2024! New user of a DX170, I am delighted with this DAP and the Player Mango, however I have a few comments for the attention of the iBasso team. Liking listening to classical music, among other things, I deplore the Mango Player's shortcomings on this point...
