Replacing my Shure SE535 with the Sennheiser IE800 IEM has the disadvantage of getting much lower noise isolation but with better sound quality.   I tested reducing the noise by covering the IE800 with a passive earmuff with high Noise Reduction Rating (NRR: 31 dB) like the 3M PELTOR X5A...

I was wondering if the Samsung 840 EVO MZ-MTE1T0BW 1TB mSATA drive it will work using an mSATA to ZIF and ZIF-Toshiba CF 50pin adapters.    The SSD mSATA drives that work with the iRiver iHP-120 player using Rockbox are:   1. Crucial M500 240GB mSATA drive (cat. no. CT240M500SSD3) 2...

Has anyone tried 128GB UDMA compact flash and rockbox in an iRiver iHP-1X0 player?   I had success with a slower and lower capacity card: Patriot Signature 266X Compact Flash 64GB PSF64G266CF.   I would like to try the Komputerbay 128GB Professional Compact Flash Card CF 600X 90MB/s...

Has anyone tried an mSATA SSD drive using a ZIF to mSATA adapter and rockbox in an iRiver iHP-1X0 player?   I am asking because the price of a 256GB mSATA SSD drive is 1/5 of a 256GB ZIF SSD drive.

Does anybody have Rockbox 3.8 with real-time clock enabled for iRiver iHP-120 digital player? I am not familiar with programing for Rockbox. Thank you!

I have received in the mail the Bach and Beyond Collegium Japan (Masaaki Suzuki conductor) CD collection from BIS records. Inside the box-set there is a card with a code for free downloading from eClassical.com (a Sweden based company) which website link does not work.   Nevertheless, I...

My Denon DCP-150 generates a distorted sound from the line-out. Observations: 1) The distortion is from the line-out but not from the headphone out 2) The line-out is clean (was treated with contact enhancer) 3) The distortion is high at the beginning of playing (mainly right channel) but...

I just received the cases (with or w/o belt clip) for US$ 0.01 each. The belt clip is not so good but you can buy a swivel belt clip - model C, which is compatible with the case and better (also sold by Boxwave). The case doesn't protect the LCD display, and a screen protector might be required...

Sometimes is difficult to operate the H1X0 joystick button, specially in the “up” direction. I will suggest to stick a clear 3MM Bumpon (Cat. No. SJ5370R25; see attached picture) on the button. Now you will have a better control of the joystick.

I just finished the real-time clock mod in my iRiver H140 (http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/RTCModH1x0). Could somebody provide me a Rockbox build that has the real-time clock driver enable? I don't know how to compile Rockbox. Thank you

Does the new Headroom's micro DAC use 9 V batteries or an internal rechargeable ion/lithium/polymer battery? Does the ultra micro DAC use the brick power supply or something better? Does the ultra micro DAC use the same enclosure, input, output, and switches than the micro DAC? Thanks

The Apple iPod firmware for the 60GB iPod Photo does not support gapless playback. Since I mostly listen to classical music, this sometimes keeps me from being able to enjoy a complete piece. To solve this, I attempted to install Rockbox (build 20060930) in my iMod iPod Photo (60GB). The problem...

I just got this e-mail from Apogee support: Sept 20th, 2005 Apogee announces the availability of new firmware for the MiniDAC’s USB daughter board. This firmware resolves the following issue: • Communication between the computer and the MiniDAC is interrupted, resulting in the Mini DAC’s...
