I've tried searching and it seems like no one really has posted experience with the UI yet. Is this correct? Or can someone guide me to any information on it?
I have the studio-V and definitely enjoy it. It seems like comparing the 2 will show some advantages and disadvantages for each. An improved UI might be enough to convince me to get the Nova but I'm also concerned if it would meet my needs. I'm far from an expert when it comes to understanding appropriate amping, so I'm mostly curious if this would handle the Etymotic ER4S reasonably well. The studio seems to do a good job, though I feel like my dedicated amp sounds a bit better but it's also not portable.
Since it sounds like they're working on a higher model, it might be better for me to hold off and see how that looks if I'm willing to spend more money. If the nova generally meets my needs, I think I might be fine with it as my portable player.
