It is the matter of throwing around fancy words in order to sell higher price.

Later, I asked for firmware, and I was refused.

Holding the firmware to punish a customer? That's customer service to you.

 

that's your punishment for being a naughty kid

No, that's was before the thread was created. That's was the first Studio.

For you guys' info: recently, I also received very nasty PM directly from HIsound.

Edit, I'd like you guys read some of older posts (a couple of years back, I really tried to help Hisound's first player AMP3 Pro.)

Well I can't argue with you there. I heard some pretty nasty things with those players back then. 60% failure rate? Eww...

You can have fun at my expense, when it is not bad intentioned. Do you want to read nasty PM I got?

That's up to you but don't post that in the forum do it in private PM.

Double post.

Another double post.

Contrary to Jack's post somewhere in one of these HiSound threads, these players aren't limited to 16/44. I just tried some 16/48 material and it works great and is something I'm extremely happy about as I much prefer 24/96 down converted to 16/48 than I do 16/44 as the interpolation seems to work better with divisibles. It's not that I think there's much/any difference in res here but when down converting it just sounds (works) better with a simple divisible. I'm currently a very happy camper. To repeat:

HiSound RoCoo/Studio are capable of playing 16/48 material.

Don't many players play 16/48? My cheap throw-away Sharper Image player and no name Deal Extreme players do.

I can see 24/96 down converted to 16/48. Will it introduce distortion when converted to 16/44 ? By the way, where did you get 24/96 files (two websites I knew - HDTracks, Linn)? Do you record your own 24/96? Do you rip DVD-Audio and Blue-Ray?

Yes, many do but many don't and 16/44 is all the vast majority will ever need. Even a Rockbox clip+ downconverts a 16/48 to 16/44 on playback. This was not to prop up the RoCoo's capabilities but to correct something Jack said earlier. As I noted, the only advantage of 16/48 to 16/44 is for downconverted 24/96 material which I happen to have a lot of. Some would argue that point besides but for me it's a big deal. For most it will be meaningless.

I've got some downloads from the sources you mentioned and work with someone that does simple mic'd commercial recordings so those first gen dubs which is over 100. We also dub Vinyl via some very expensive kit to a SSD Nagra VI with linear supply I modded for it. Not a fan of switching supplies or just battery though that's second best. Records are generally first pressings from country of origin. You'd be surprised how different various record issues sound. Don't bother with DVDa, BluRay or SACD.

As i saw in the spec: Memory capacity: internal memory = 4G ＋ expanding SD card slot. Maximum 16GB The maximum Micro SD Card that this DAP support just only 16GB ? Can anyone have been try with Micro SD 32GB? Any problem with 32GB? Thanks

With the updated firmware it works perfectly with 32 GB cards. I would recommend you stick to Sandisk cards as they are more reliable and for sure work on these devices. My 32 GB card is filled to capacity with flac files and I have no issues at all with playback.

I have two 32GB almost loaded with albums and both my Studio/Rocoo recognize/integrates files fairly quickly even when switching the cards around. 

I can't really say that my rockboxed DAP's could do this as efficiently.
