Computer storage makes the sound cold/ lifeless but with BBE it regains sheen and life. My Mp3 players now how the fun life sheen sound that my MZ-RH1 had which I think was due to the HD amp in it. So is it worth it to buy MP3 players that don't have BBE+? I was thinking of buying the Hifiman and Nationite but didn't due to them not having BBE enhancement... Sony X-series sounds quite good though.
