Leather Case:
Use the leather case to protect the DX300 chassis from scratches.
Coaxial Cable:
Connect the coaxial cable to an external DAC, to allow the DX300 to work as a digital transport.
Balanced Burn-in Cable:
Plug the burn-in cable into the output socket and keep playing music to burn-in the DX300. The burn-in process helps the DX300 sound reach its full potential by forming the capacitors and stabilizing the electronic components used.
USB-C Cable:
Connect the USB-C cable to a computer for charging, data transfer, and USB-DAC function.The USB-C cable can also be used with a USB charger to charge the battery.
Screen Protector:
Use the screen protector to protect the DX300 screen from scratches.
Warranty Card:
The warranty will be requested at the time of warranty repair. Please retain the warranty card.
Quick Start Guide:
This reviews the basic functions of the DX300.

Tips for burn-in
The use of the cable is very straightforward. The burn-in cable is used to form the capacitors and to condition the rest of the circuitry. The method for burn-in is to use normal resolution music, as higher resolution causes more heat due to the higher demand on the system. Also, use a normal listening volume, as the higher volume will have a higher power consumption therefore more heat will be generated. While burning in the DX300, both the balanced and the single
ended components are being affected and burned in.
The burn-in time can be from 100 to 200 hours and the
burn-in doesn't have to be continual. You can power off the
player and continue the burn-in process after a few days. It is also not mandatory to use the burn-in cable, we supply it as a convenience for when you are not listening to the DX300 and you would like to get your dap conditioned as soon as possible. You can also just listen to the player and enjoy the music as your player goes through this process while playing through IEMs or headphones.
