    Both the Fuze+ and Clip+ have arrived

    Still waiting on the Sleek's, but it seems to me that the Fuze+ has more bass in the sound. And as I don't like to be overwhelmed by bass, I have chosen to use the Clip+ and the Fuze+ went to a friend in desperate need of a new DAP.   Couple Rockbox questions though. If I install Rockbox...

    Is there a way to 'force' an MP3 player to support the FLAC format?

    Or more specifically, the Creative Zen X-Fi (old model)?   It's pretty annoying that some of my stuff is in FLAC and not MP3 and because Creative don't support the format (even though it would probably take them no time to publish a firmware update to support it) it means I can only listen...

    Hi, I am not an expert in mp3 players, but from reading what audiophiles say, apparently ipods (which are the norm here in Canada) are not that good for audio quality. well, to me audio quality is the important thing, I dont care about apps, video display, games, podcasts, camera...

    Sony A846 + its noise-canceling canalphones: value?

    I may be able to acquire the player in the title (capacity: 32 gigs), and its 'phones I already have (the noise canceling is made to work on this player). The player has a single line on the screen from having had its glass slightly cracked, but everything works fine. Now, I have no use for...

    "Nokia N8" and "feeding a (portable) DAC with USB on-the-go"

      The new nokia N8 will be available soon and the sound quality seems promising refering to gsmarena. I think this might be a good alternative to the iphone. Still I doubt it features a line out so that kind of spoils the fun. Let me know what you think.

    iPod 5.5g SQ vs. Sansa Fuze SQ

    I've just upgraded my headphones and have been watching iPod 5.5 prices on eBay. Does anyone own both of these and can compare the sound? I do enjoy my Fuze, but I also like the 80GB of space, battery life (with a cheap battery upgrade), and worthwhile upgrades of amp + LOD for the iPod...

    Best iPod for sound quality?

    Which of the current-gen iPods have the best sound? I'm looking to ditch my iPhone for a Windows Phone when they come out, so I want a dedicated DAP. Any models to stay away from? The Nano is super-sexy looking, but I wonder if it will be able to drive JH16's or my Grado 325's.   I was never...

    If you have a good set of earphones, does the player matter in terms of the overall sound quality heard?

      Hi,    I was wanting to ask if the audio player mattered as much if you've a really good / decent set of earphones to go along? (not considering FLAC files or lossless of course, more like MP3s, where its already been highly compressed and lossy)   More specifically would the...
