Some random thoughts on my new Amp3 Pro.2 player.
Navigation leaves a lot to be desired. Luumage pointed out most of the deficiencies. I don't look at the screen much, but would like to know what song is playing at a glance instead of waiting for the slooooow crawl.
The display could use a brightness adjustment. In low or room light it looks great but outside it is easily washed out.
I too have had freezing problems. If I click to another song before the display is up and running, the player tends to freeze. If I wait until the crawl starts, it works fine.
I too really like the heft of this player, although some may find it off putting, especially compared to the Clip line. I have the Clips and while I like them they are almost too light and small.
I bought this for commuting (walking) back and forth from work in the winter. I get annoyed at the cables between players and amps, especially when putting them in and out of my pocket. This player solves that problem.
The sound is really good, after at least a short break in. As noted in another post, there were some clicks and pops with FLAC files initially but they seem to have gone away.
The volume limiter doesn't seem to be much of a problem with me so far, although I'm glad it is being looked at. I do find myself maxing out on a couple of tracks, but not really being frustrated at not being able to go up higher. My guess is that if the limiter is removed that I'll go up to the 30-35 range on very few occasions.
In short, after a bumpy start, I think I'm going to like this player.
Thank you!
