I tried that and it works! That means the delay must be some weird software bug on rockbox...hopefully it'll get fixed in a future release.

I even tried resetting rockbox, but nothing changed... I really can't get why this is happening.   EDIT: I just noticed something: the delay is of about 7 seconds on flacs with higher bitrate (1.7-1.8 Mbps), while on lower bitrates (1Mbps and lower) the delay is 1.5-2 seconds. Hmm...

Hmm...I tried formatting the sd to Fat32 with 4096 kb sectors, but the issue remains. The card is a legit samsung evo, so I can't understand where the problem is...   Are you using the latest version of rockbox (Boot: d312ba8M-160316, System: b708dbc-160501)? Have you configured rockbox in...

Hello everyone! Recently I bought an X3 and rockboxed it. I love it, but everytime I play a file, it takes some seconds to start. It goes from 2-3s for mp3s, to 5-6s for FLACs. Is that normal? I tried using the same mSD on my rockboxed Clip Zip and everything plays istantly.   The only time...

Aww yeah!!! It's so damn good! So punchy yet no boomy at all, it's mindblowing! And the clarity, oh the clarity!!!

I received mine a couple of days ago and I already love them! I'm not that good at describing sound, but "massive" is definitely a word that comes to mind when I listen to them. These are certainly worth the money. The build quality is superb and there are a truckload of tips included  Thank...

I finally caved in and ordered them!  My wallet is crying but it'll be worth it...anyway, now I should stop buying new audio equipment for a good while (as long as I can resist lol) Easy has been a very nice person and has given me a discount    All I have to do now is wait, and wait, and...

You're right, I'll wait for some reviews before deciding. But now I'm already more inclined towards the Shockwave 3 :D Thanks for the tip, I'll certainly do that :)

I'm really interested in this IEM, but the price is quite high for me...I've never spent that much money on any piece of audio equipment. That's why I'm torn between these and the MusicMaker TK12...is the upgrade in SQ worth 130$ over the tk12's price?   Thanks  

I ordered them on 14/1, but the package remained at the customs warehouse of my country for about 10 days.

I got my Monks today, and I've got to say that these definitely live up to the hype! It's incredible how much SQ you get for such a ridiculous price. Congratulations to the VE team for such amazing earbuds!!!

Hello everyone! I ended up on this page by chance and got to know this device, and now I'm considering buying it  But I also discovered the E3, which seems much more portable and considerably cheaper (99€ vs 169€ here in Italy)... Can anyone compare the SQ on these two?   The only thing I'm...

So, if my price hasn't been reduced yet, does it mean I was too late?

I made the order on AE and then in the "Order details" page I sent a message to the seller. Is that right? I'm very eager to try these earbuds!

The more I read this thread, the more kz products I buy! I already have the ES and the EDSE, and I'm waiting for the GR and the LPS to arrive. The EDSE and ES are both great, their sound is quite similar. The only difference my inexperienced ears can notice is the quantity of bass (more on the...

Well, the bass is definitely more prominent. As I said, I'm not an expert, so I don't know the exact terms, but I find the xe800 more energetic, as you said, while the havis are perhaps colder, but more spacious (Their soundstage makes me wow) and a bit more detailed. Both have great clarity. I...

I mean they take some time to fit right and get the right isolation, at least for me

After waiting for exactly a month, my XE800 finally arrived! The sound is fantastic! I'm not an expert, but I find them very clear and with good bass. They are extremely comfortable and easy to fit, unlike the havis. Now they are my choice for casual outdoor use. Thanks for making me...

It looks like the 50$ xe800 is back in stock! http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=39611403083 I just ordered one through mistertao!

Can you share the link? Thx

But what about SQ? What are the differences?

Hello! I'm interested in this nice DAP, but I was wondering: can anybody tell me the differences between the X1 and a Clip Zip + E11K ?

Thanks for the answer. I have looked around the internet and I can't find a good place where to buy the NVXs, it looks like they are sold only in the US, and I live in Italy. Importing them would cost me about 80-90€, without considering possible import duties. As for the other clones, the...

Then I'm afraid the Pro80 are not for me, since I am quite sensitive to bright/sharp sounds. From what I've read, the Somics seem to be better in SQ than the Takstars, but the Takstars are more comfortable. I usually listen to music for max. 1-2 hours at medium-high volume. I'm leaning...

Hello everyone, I've been lurking this forum for quite some time, but I haven't found a precise answer to my problem, so I decided to ask it here . I'd like to buy a new pair of over-ear headphones for use at home. I plan on using them mainly for music and for some pc gaming. Initially I was...
