Probably the gain not set to high on the Pioneer(75mw@32ohm),it's definitely more powerful than the sony zx2.The Onkyo has the same power output on it single ended port,only the balance port offer a higher power at 150mw@32ohm.
I think what the salesman said is quite true.
Xdp 100r not very powerful at all. I listened at 150/160 of the volume with my se5ult ( and i dont really listen at vert loud volumes ).
He mentioned that they are coming out with an attachment for the daps or something like that. Something like ak380 and ak380 amp I guess. So yea xdp 100 as a transport could have been what was intended.
Hopefully dp x1 is more powerful than xdp 100r.
in this age n time still want to charge us higher
how much our parent were ripped off by these diatributors in the past
boycott hwee seng
buy from cheaper source
I think you have issues with XDP-100R coz u r using a silicone custom. They always require more power and r harder to drive. Same issue with Custom Art H8(P).
Anyway, tried it with my TG334 on Fri. No issues with power, drives the Fitear with ease. Sound quality is clean and pretty good clarity. Only issue I had was UI, slightly counter intuitive and and it doesn't have option to select files from files and drives.
Not even sure if Hwee Seng is bringing in at this point. They look disinterested.

When I audited Pioneer, I was using my Westones W60 and I had to turn it up to 150 (10 more steps to hit max of 160) before I could hear every nuance in the music...

Maybe that. Idk. Cos I usually listen to my 232 n ex1000 at same or louder volume setting on my dap compared to my ciem

can explain more about silicone ?
SQ wise how do you think of the Pioneer for sub 1100k DAPs.
OT a bit. I'm actually quite shocked that you using 334 because...

Wah I got it.... now burn it time...
loud enough?
Due to the signature of the Pioneer, I think both the 232 and EX1000 wouldn't really play well. I'd pair the Pioneer with a more musical IEM.
Pretty sure I didn't hit those dizzy volume heights, though I forgot wat volume I listened to.
My experience with silicone customs is that they typically require more power to drive than the typical acrylic ones. This was the case with both Custom Art and ACS. YMMV.
For the price, the Pioneer dap is not bad, but personally, there are better options out there. I love the Lotoo Paw 5000. The Cayin N5 is pretty decent too. Am still waiting for the Onkyo DP-X1 demo to appear in SG though.
Because???
125 for me using Umpro30....put in my micro SD card , syn all files, all album appeared. UI like Sony ZX1 but more interactive.
Got Pioneer or Onkyo?
Can try to install Spotify and see?
