Some of you on these boards know me quite well while others have run across my posts on various occasions. Those of you who know me know that, as a general rule, I try my best to never rant, troll, or slam products for the sake of slamming it. As far a brand loyalty is concerned I'm quite an...

i have an ipod touch 5th gen and a bose AE2 , i haven't used them in  a while since i bought my studio monitors    Yesterday i had a 24hr shift i decided to play something to pass the time , for some reason i couldn't stand the headphones , it sounded very harsh and it kinda gave me a headache...

Hey guys. Im looking for decent mp3 player. My options so far are: Ipod nano 7th gen Or Zune HD (refurbished in great condition with warranty) Got any other options? (Size: bigger then sansa clip, smaller then ipod touch) *not looking for something proffesional , just a nice mp3 for...

The Nokia 520 and 820 both have expandable storage, and Win8 mobile.   I listened to the 820 recently...and I liked it a lot. I honestly felt that the sound was more detailed and crisp than what I got from my 5g ipod touch. I felt like I could get more of the music's texture. Dolby headphone...

After playing around with a bunch of players - X3, DX50, AK100 - I am starting to come around to the iPod Touch as a good digital transport, especially now that iOS 7 allows relatively easy digital out.   So I thought I'd start a thread for iPod Touch users to share what their rigs are.   I...

Anyone else using an (ipod) Touch 5G?   I sold one of my Touch 4Gs and bought  a Touch 5G 64GB.   Currently mostly using it with my Hifi-M8, but it performs quite well on its on as a stand alone player. I think it performs better than the 4G, with its larger RAM and better chip. It also...

I have been using this app for a long time to play FLAC on my ipod touch 4G, iphone 4 and touch 5G. It often updates with various fixes which keeps it current and relevant. I have bought many audio os apps but always seem to return to flacplayer app. I also just participated in the recent...

Hi Guys,   I'm an persistent follower of the forum, but this is the first time I'm actually asking a question. I'm looking to get a high-end portable DAP and leaning strongly towards the AK100 or AK120 (not sure which yet). I know they are quite pricy DAPs but I'm willing to pay the money for...

Im having a hard time choosing between buying an iPod Touch and using it with my E11 or simply buy a Cowon Z2 I know how good Cowon players are but Ive had an iPod touch for the past 3 years and i really enjoy it. The Camera The iOS etc... I seek a good SQ from my portable device and i...

I've been debating between the these two devices for quite a while now, and I haven't come to any conclusion. I know the physical traits of each, but not the sonic differences.   I know that the Voodoo mod is supposed to increase sound quality in the SGP. How exactly does it do so? I...

I have been using an iPod classic 160gb for about a year, and figured that it is not suited for BA IEMs since its H/P out has 5 ohm output. That's why I consider buying a Clip+ as it is said to be better with BA IEMs because of its near linear H/P out(1ohm, if I'm not mistaken).   But now...

I currently shifted from Android to Apple's product (ipod touch 5), and cannot miss the UI of poweramp more. There are quite a lot of music player apps, but only a few of them play FLAC. Moreover, most of them are full of bugs, slow and user unfriendly.   Is there any user friendly app...

As you can see I'm new to the forum and have a concerning question. I couldn't find any topics on this comparison that fitted my situation, so anything will help! Here goes:   I'm into house and hip hop music as of late and narrowed down my choice of headset to 3 options, listed in the title...

Is it just me, or is the bass slightly different after upgrading to iOS 6?  I feel the bass feels stronger, but it's less deep, not as low as before, being closer to the mid bass and is more bloated.  Overall it feels less accurate and more noisy.  I have it on bass booster eq (before and after...

hey, what is best? ipod 5g or i touch 1/2g is better ? maybe nano ?

Are there differences in SQ and SQ potential with an amp/dac between an iPod Touch and iPad?   Does the iPad mini have a camera outlet to bypass the iPad dac?

I am replacing a dying Zune HD and have four major criteria: -I'd like to keep comparable sound quality -Bluetooth capability (for background, I know it hurts quality) -I don't want Android, I have a phone for that. -I need at least 32GB storage, but anything with a MicroSD slot works as well...

I like the new iPod Touch, if it had 128 GB, I would have no doubts, what about you?

Guys, I did try searching on 'iPhone5' and 'iPhone 5' - no luck - feel free to ignore this if its been posted elsewhere. That chunky CLAS stack just got a little chunkier with the requirement for an adapter. I can only assume that the '19 pin-to-30 pin' adapter will still work with the CLAS and...

Iphone 5 and new ipod touch DAC? Anyone know if apple chose the same from CL or like the rumors where saying a return to the Wolfson family has happened? Sent from my Sony Tablet S using Tapatalk 2

So for the past few months I have been using the forums to educate myself on the would of HiFi sound. You guys are really great.   So imagine my excitement when I was looking around my house and found an unused ipod 5th gen. 60 gb. It was my fathers but he never used it so he GAVE it to me...

In looking to replace my D Zero. I just received my Weston's 4R. I'm looking for an amp upgrade for the Westone and my HD580's. Sources are my Note2, Rock Box Clip Zip, Nano and iPod touch. I was looking at the Leckerton but not sure. I get overwhelmed reading reviews and would appreciate some...

I have had the iPod from the first model , but my ears become more choosy year over year and especially last models wasn't so eliciting under the point of view of sound quality. I have an Ipad to, it sounds incredibly better but it is far to be defined transportable , moreover better now is not...

  There was a day in the Head-Fi timeline when the iPod was king. Those days are gone and rarely do you even see or read about anybody using one. They have somehow slipped from the limelight and have been replaced here by other DAPs. The audiophile market is fast changing and stuff is always...

Anyone know what the output impedance for headphone jack is of iPod A1136  (ipod 5th gen 2006)  ?   Also what would that mean for very high efficiency  63 ohm Headphones?   (Sony MDR-V6)
