Well, my DX3 has arrived. Solid piece of kit for sure. Was smaller than I was expecting, which is nice because it doesn't take up too much space on my desk! The new firmware was already installed on it, only seems to click when changing from the headphone out to line out. I also like the remote, its small and plastic, but its clicky and works just fine.
Trying out the Inception soundtrack as my first listen, I can say it sounds different compared to my old Fiio E07K! First thing I noticed was that the bass sounded different, much more powerful and tighter. Now I am jamming some Tool, the guitars on the song Schism seem to have a lot more detail that I had never heard before, at least, this is what my bias and unreliable ear and brain is telling me
Have yet to test the line out to my monitors or the bluetooth, but so far so good. Hopefully this thing doesnt break
