Yep looks like that model fits the bill, how is the battery life, wifi connection and sound on it? Can it use any app from the Google play app store?

Sadly it seems at some point LG may be leaving the phone market, I've been using their phones for a long time now as my portable music player. As an aside I have a DLNA home server pushing my lossless audio so I use my phone and Foobar Android music player to access all that music in my home...

TBI powersport 5.0 - went in and out on blue tooth Blackweb BWD - These stopped holding a charge and had issues connecting to the charger Thanks for the recommendations

Hello, This post isn't strictly about sound quality as it is for my wife. She has had issues with like 4 pairs of blue tooth ear buds for jogging. Either they stop holding a charge or one of them cuts out. We have had to return 3 pairs of them so far. She prefers the ones with ear hooks and not...

So been an audiophile for decades, and I would finally like to take a dive and hear the quality of a tube amp. I'm more of a main system audio guy and I'm happy with my home setup so my portable area would be the best candidate to fit in my desire to try out the sound quality of Tubes. My...

So I remembered the issue with the Onyko I read about, bad battery life and the headphone socket being to loose. I get 5-7 hrs with my Windows Tablet and would at want that with the Onkyo 

So is this a good all around player with DLNA and wifi? I have pretty much researched every mid to high end DAP with wifi and it seems they all suck with wifi and have dropouts and stuttering playback. I have a DLNA server in my have with tons of lossless and 24bit 96k audio on it and I'd use...

Glad to hear DLNA works on the Onkyo, I re read the thread here and see what I saw about issues but at least you got it to work how I would use it.

Looked into the Cayin I5 and it also has wifi issues and is not a reliable audio player in that regards.   Oh Well it does not look like a workable audio player for me exists I just want a good sounding player with good reliable wifi for DLNA or Tidal, that doesn't sound like something so out...

So how good is the wifi on this player? I would use it as a DLNA player streaming lossless audio up to 24bit 96k Wirelessly. Any wifi interfearance? Does Tidal work well on it? Any type of auto donwsampling when you use the EQ?

Well that sucks, is their any wifi enabled DAP that runs well and doesn't have issues? I've read of problems with the Pioneer and Onkyo wifi DAP's as well. If not I'll just stick to using Windows Tablets as my audio players. I don't have any wifi issues and AIMP has alot of sound options for me...

While slighltly out of my Price range the FIIO X7 also seems to meet my needs. What are the opinions of using this as a DLNA player? Any wifi stability issues? Do all EQ settings still apply when using DLNA? Any quality limitations?   Also which amp modules gives a natural warm analog sound...

So what amp module would I use if I prefer a warm analog sound? I'm looking at DAPs again after using windows tablets and want a wifi enabled DLNA DAP and the amp modules are pretty interesting.   How is the wifi stability and DLNA playback? Any issues?

Looks like this may be harder than I thought the Pioneer seems to have wifi issues and build quality issues and is discontinued, Same with the Onkyo DP-X1   Is there a player that meets my needs that isn;t full of issues?

How is DLNA wifi playback on this? Does the EQ and other DSP options reduce bit rate to 48k?

So I've been using windows tablets with AIMP installed as my portable music device for the last 5 years and since then it seems some major strides have been made in DAP's.   I would need a wifi enabled device with seemless DLNA playback. I have 2 TB's of lossless and high res audio and assett...

I have a ton of lossless audio on my home server and use DLNA to serve this lossless audio around my house and to various devices etc.I'm currently using an 8 inch win 8.1 tablet as my home portable music player, I can install various programs on it to receive the DLNA audio it gets around 9 hrs...

D'oh

I've had one for some time now and it sounds really good but needs an amp.   The sound signature is warm and the EQ works well on it.

Just an FYI the surface pro works really well as a source device. Battery is of course not great compared to smaller portable devices but the sound quality of the headphone output is really good. Win8 also has DLNA client capability built in. Using the Xbox music app to browse my DLNA server I...

Just to follow up I have been using my EXOPC as my primary audio source for several months now and it works and sound amazing. I'm using AIMP2 as the player which sounds better runs better than foobar and is compatible with winamp plugins, I'm using the bass exciter winamp plug in with great...

Ok so here is my Story   Been using IEM's for years and my ears are just getting fatigued with having an IEM in them all the time also tired of constantly adjusting them in my ear. I switched to IEMS because full size cans were also uncomfortable pressing to much on my ears etc. but I think...

Bumping this thread, I've had an XM5 for along time and it is a great portable amp, can't wait to here more about the xm6  

Just the way the market is going, with Win7 phones accessing the zune marketplace there probably was no reason to keep putting out Audio only players. I've moved onto a win7 tablet for my portable audio needs

  Quote: Better battery life would be awesome but somehow this device exactly fits my needs even though I was not expecting it. The key here is with Ipads, android devices etc you can't map a drive to a Windows PC and play back any media type. Some programs allows you to stream your...
