    • My favorite DAP of the past decade
Review Image by Mobius Mobius
PROLOGUE: I’m just some Joe Schmoe who likes listening to music a lot. Some friends and co-workers have called me an “audiophile” for whatever that prickly word is worth. I own various amps, headphones, and speakers, but in the end I just try to enjoy music. My first dedicated DAP was the Sansa e200 series from 2008 or so. The physical controls, blue LED ring, and metal-backed case was to die for for a fledgling teenager like myself during that period of life. Around late 2014 I “upgraded” to this iBasso DX50. I was in college then and very much I remember spending so much time with this thing waiting between classes in the hallways. The e200 was able to load Rockbox and that definitely spurred my interest in getting the DX50 since it was also able to run Rockbox. Anyway, life goes on and the DX50 got placed in storage around 2017 or so when streaming music basically took over my buying individual music tracks or albums. Don’t get me wrong, I still love streaming services and subscribe to various services here and there, but I have been recently wanting to get back into using dedicated DAP’s to get away from my phone while listening to music. Now that i’ve been in the workforce for the better part of the decade, I have more disposable income and a chance to try out some new music players, services, and headphones. In the past year or so I have been scouring around the internet, specifically buying DAPs and portable amps to get back into listening to music on the go. And honestly, after spending so much money on new xDuoo’s , FiiO’s, Cayin’s and whatnot, I've come back to the iBasso DX50…. REVIEW: Pros: -Well built -Not heavy -Doesn't get warm/hot (can’t believe im typing that but ive noticed others DAPs can sometimes get warm) -Easy to use UI -UI is usually non-intrusive and out of the way -Quick to respond playback controls and volume on WPS (While Playing Screen) -Fantastic physical transport controls -Easy to replace battery -Easy to find/purchase battery -Did I mention the removable battery? -Great Rockbox support Cons: -Could use some rubber feet so it doesn't slide around so easy (easy to add my own though) -Screen resolution is showing its age -No aliasing of text and images in stock/Mango OS -Touch screen controls wonky sometimes -Stock OS doesn't seem to do gapless (fixed as of latest update) -Supposed distortion of >10% when playing loudly through 16ohm and lower impedance headphones/iem’s (personally untested) Part 1 – The Physicals The exterior of this is great in my humble opinion. Solid construction, nice clicky front 3-transport buttons, volume controls and screen controls flanked on the sides. I honestly have no complaints about the actual construction and the layout of the buttons. The screen resolution is not the best however. Even for 2014 is was only average. But otherwise it’s perfectly fine and usable. The good news is that the screen has great viewing angles, so it’s probably an IPS screen or something similar instead of a bottom-of-the-barrel TFT. The battery is removable and replaceable by the same battery used in the Samsung Galaxy S3 (among other Samsung phones). And the newer Hewlett-Packard “Prime” graphing calculators use the same battery style as well, so expect them to be in continuous production for the foreseeable future (as of 2022). If I had to absolutely choose one nitpick or change something, I would probably make the headphone output a quarter-inch style instead of the 3.5mm. Part 2 – User Interface and Usability (I do not use m3u / playlists so I cannot comment on the capability and usage of those on the DX50) Actually using the DX50 in it’s original operating system is for the most part drama-free. It does have some peculiarities, and is probably the weakest part of the DX50. As a device with a touchscreen from 2014, it’s got a few quirks to deal with. There have been times when I scroll through a list of folder and files on the device, and the swiping action of the finger going across the screen has sometimes made the DX50 think that I am clicking on a single item. It happens at least once or twice a day if I use it. Maybe I give it too much lee-way but it hasn't bothered me too much. Pressing the on-screen back-button can sometimes be a chore with how small the button is. The DX50 has a “random” play mode, and it works like any other MP3 player. The only problem is that it doesn't remember what song it played previously. i.e. if I want to go back one track while in random mode, it won’t play the previously-played track. It will just play a random file. I get “random” is “random” but ive never had any other player play randomly after pressing the previous-track button. Personally this is the WORST part of the DX50 for myself. If this was fixed it would have been a stellar and amazing DAP considering my other smaller issues with it. The DX50 can display album art, but it’s non-aliased so it’s very pixelated and kind of ugly. Not really a big deal for me. There is a DAC mode for use with PC but there is quite a bit of delay in the output. Without any kind of lip-syncing, its kind of useless in my opinion. Also it has literally bluescreened my PC when I unplug the DX50 from the PC while the DX50 is in DAC mode. The newer firmware’s have a DAC mode for Linux but I haven't had the opportunity to test it out with my Ubuntu and Cent/Rocky machines just yet. After all is said and done, once you are set in a place and playing a list of music files it becomes a smoother experience (sans the music-randomize quirk mentioned above). Volume controls are easy to use and don’t linger on the screen for very long. The top-mounted physical pause/play/transport buttons all respond instantly with very little delay. The power button acts as a screen-off button which is nice. There are still some quirks however. I can’t replicate it 100% of the time, but for whatever reason it sometimes doesn't play the first couple milliseconds of music after selecting a file. I have an older firmware on here so maybe its fixed, I will need to install it to see if its any better. (NOTE as of latest update it still does this with all files. There is a soft-start on all tracks when you select them individually. However gapless is working perfectly now.) The built-in EQ is okay. You can turn it on and off, and play around with the how more or less you want of certain freq’s. You cannot change the frequency of each EQ like you can in Rockbox, but its good enough to do the job. Battery life is decent. It’s actually the primary reason I chose the DX50 over the DX90. I get about three to four days of use while listening to music at work or out and about before it needs a recharge. Last thing to note is that this accepts SDHX memory cards of up to 2TB. Good future proofing from a 2014 device that still holds up today. Part 3 – Sound It sounds… ...good? I honestly can’t really tell the difference between the DX50 versus any other competent and well-engineered amplifier stage from other brands of DAPs and amps like my xDuoo XD-05 or Cayin N3 Pro or THX AAA. At least with headphones under 80 ohms and at regular non-painful volume levels. I’m really not the person to ask for if you need someone to tell the difference in sound from A player vs. B player where one sounds “expansive” or “more chocolaty” and what not. It sounds good and it sounds accurate. The ONLY difference i’ve ever been able to tell, was when I play music loudly to my MDR-V6’s from my Sansa e200 vs. the same music and headphones on the DX50. The Sansa e200 couldn't reproduce some of the lower notes in bass heavy tracks at loud volumes like the DX50 could, and the high’s became somewhat shrill at the same time. The DX50 plays music like a champ on anything 32ohm-120ohm (or more) with at least 90dB/milliwatt or so efficiency. Note that iem’s and headphones under 32ohms may suffer. There is a huge Spanish-written report online that reviewed the DX50 and DX90 with measurements of noise level, IMD, and crosstalk. And using headphones of 16ohm at volumes above “220” (on the DX50’s scale) increased the distortion to 10% or more. So if this is something you want to avoid, I would advise against using very low impedance headphones with the DX50. Anything at 32ohm and above will be fine. If you absolutely need to use anything lower, then this is where the DX90 will shine and play better as it does not have the same distortion levels when using those types of low impedance headphones/iem’s. CONCLUSION It’s a great DAP all around. The UI isn't the absolute greatest and again the weakest part of the DX50. But everything else, from build quality, sound quality, battery replaceability, ease-of-use, and physical controls. It has everything I need and nothing more that I don’t. I like this so much that I noticed Amazon still sells brand-new DX50’s at the same price I got it at in 2014. So I have a second back-up unit in case the first conks out. ... show more

    • I Love This DAP
I Love This DAP I wanted to make a choice out of the ibasso DX50, DX90 and the fiio X3 and X5. From what I heard the Fiio X3 is a work of art and is just a awesome solid player manufactured to a high tolerance. I expect the same would be true for the X5 . It was a difficult choice to be made after watching many reviews, and reading various forums. In the end I could not be happier in my choice of the iBasso DX50. The deciding factor for myself is all of the codecs that are supported (I would admit that the Fiio also support many codecs), the user replaceable Samsung battery, the 2TB storage specification, battery life and a (IMO) a more logical and intuitive button control layout compared to the X3. I absolutely love the DX50 from it's fit & finish, solid feel, button controls, constant firmware updates and premium feel. If I had to buy a player again I would not regret my purchase, the DX50 is just simply awesome. The item was delivered with nice Apple like presentation in the box. If there were a couple of changes that I would make it would be the ability to play a folder, it's sub-folders of music files. This is not a choice that exist in the latest firmware. You have the choice of playing a particular folder of music or playing all songs on the internal/external device. Yo also have choices of playing music by Genre, artist, album, and playlist. However this will not suffice if your music is not properly tagged which is the case with many of my songs. That is where the play folder and sub-folders would be an awesome feature to have. Also I think that instead of iBasso using a marketing screen protector embossed with their branding for shipping that they should ship the unit with a screen protector already installed on the unit. I have never understood why something is shipped with a branding screen protector with two user install able protectors in the box. This does not make much since to me, but a minor quibble until the user get a hair or dust under the protector and then no fun. I also wish that the unit came with more then 8GB of storage but I understand why that is not the case given the price point. Perhaps all of the above are minor quibbles but they matter to me. i have had a couple of lock ups while playing music, this generally occurs when playing all music this has caused several restarts of the player, but I will reserve reservation on this issue until after I determine if there is a problem with the music or the player/firmware. In the end NICE JOB iBASSO, KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK. -------------------------------------------------- After having this player I decided that I would make a quick update or two, although I still love this DAP as much as I did on the 1st day: I have noticed that when turning the unit on that one can hear a slight mechanical pop or click inside of the unit. I suspect that this sound is as a result of something within the DAP being energized during the start up process. Just to be clear the sound is not coming from headphones or speakers as I have tested without these sound devices being plugged in. However if you were to have headphones or speakers plugged in while the unit is powering up you will also hear pop or click coming through whatever is plugged into the headphone jack Also I have noticed that if the device is plugged into a USB charger that has multiple USB charge ports there is an obnoxious feedback hum. I first noticed this in my car with the plugging of the DAP into a USB charger in my car and then using an aux cable to the stereo head unit. Unplug the USB power cable and the problem goes away. This is not so unusual (for me) as I also experienced the same issue with older Apple iPod units. However I have never experience the feedback through a AC USB charger. In my scenario I have a 5 port Anker Charger which I plug this DAP player and a portable Battery powered speaker which charges via USB. Having both devices plugged into the same charger produces this audible hum. I can then unplug the speaker or DAP from the USB charger and the hum goes away. I have tried with multiple speakers plugged into the USB charger, and even a different USB charger with the same result. I guess that the short term solution is to insure that the USB charger is not charging both devices. Perhaps the long and more complicated solution would be to use a USB isolater of some type. Non-the-less iBasso should research and resolve this issue. I suspect that the resolution would be a hardware solution, I don't believe that this issue can be resolved via a Firmware update. ... show more
