Appreciate the suggestions for Roon and MusicBee. I did check them out, but they seem a bit heavy for what I'm trying to e.g. a lot of features I have no plan on using. I'm looking for a standalone solution, lightweight, that only does tagging and organization; not really looking for something...

Looking to organize my extensive digital music library; what's the best all in one software solution out there (paid or free) that does the following: - Tracks down and updates music tracks and albums with album art - Tracks down, edits, manages and updates music tracks and album metadata/tags...

Ah, okay, thank you for that info! Did you happen to have any thoughts regarding my previous post about improving or expanding the sound quality and functionality of the DP-X1 with a companion portable device?

Appreciate your insight and recommendations! I own the DP-X1A, and I find it a little bizarre regarding Onkyo’s naming conventions as their own website has no mention of the B-version. So weird. Anyway, I checked my DP-1XA for its Android version, and it’s running v5.1.1 and ran the updater (no...

@DBaldock9, what are the differences between the DP-X1A and DP-X1B? I wasn’t even aware that Onkyo released a DP-X1B. In your opinion, what would be the DP-1XA equivalent in today’s market? And what would be the logical upgrade to the DP-X1A?

Really appreciate the insight on the Shanling! I hadn’t really considered it (yet) as there are so many DAP options to choose from that it’s overwhelming. That said, there are some things that I really do not like about DAPs, and that is the Android OS. It seems more often than not that that is...

I currently own an Onkyo DP-X1A digital audio player, and I'm looking to upgrade it as the battery isn't holding much of a charge anymore and the hardware is definitely showing its age. 1) Is there a current portable DAP on the market today that would be considered the DP-X1A's equal? 2) What...

Anyone?

The venerable DP-X1A was released almost five years ago; is the Onkyo DP-1XA still a viable DAP in 2021, or has it been eclipsed by DAPs that do it better for less? And if there are cheaper DAPs that do it better than the DP-X1A, what are some examples?

Anyone?

Yes, it’s true. I’ve had the DP-1XA for some time now, and frankly, I don’t enjoy using it. Maybe it’s too “high speed” for me, maybe it’s the finicky Android OS and GUI, but when I’m on the road, I’m finding myself leaving this DAP at home more often than not. A travesty, you say? Perhaps. At...

I bought an Onkyo DP-X1A in August of last year, and after several months of use, I can say that I am not really fond of it. That said, I am looking to replace it with something else. 1) What would be a comparable digital audio player to the Onkyo DP-X1A? 2) What would be the logical step up...

Other than the Dunu, New Primacy and anything by Campfire Audio, what are other well executed V-shaped IEMs that you like? Looking for in ear comfort, great bass response, highs that are refined, accurate and not too sibilant.

So, a quick update regarding finding a replacement of my TF10's. I tried out the iBasso IT01, and really loved the gobs of bass that it threw out, but found the highs to be much too sibilant and unrefined for me. The TF10's are head and shoulders above the IT01 in that regard, but the TF10 don't...

Really no budget; it's open ended. Simply looking for a device similar to the E17K which can alter the bass and treble incrementally.
