Hi everyone !   I have the Cowon J3 16Go + 64Go SD card, and, regrettably, the storage is nearly completely full.    So, I will soon buy a new music player, with a huge capacity of storage.    The Ipod Classic could be great, but is the sound bad ? How is the sound compared to the J3...

A few days ago my girlfriend washed my sporting clothes, and with them my Cowon J3 32GB player  Tried to revive it after I let it dry on the heater for 2 days, but no luck.    So now I have to find an other MP3 player, but to be honest I do not have the money at this time to buy a mp3 player...

Hi everyone,   I'm looking for a new portable audio player -- I'll be using it with one of my home audio systems as well as when I'm travelling. It's not for gym use - I have a sansa clip for that.    Requirements are simple:   - 32gb minimum, preferably 64gb - Audio quality is...

I've been a very happy long time owner of both the iaudio X5l and 7.  However, I've found that neither supports gapless and the battery life of the X5L is getting pretty bad (the 7 still runs forever on a charge - amazing).  So to obtain gapless support I purchased a J3 mainly based on reviews...

Asking this on behalf of a friend :P He lives in Israel, and wants to buy the Cowon J3 32GB version, perferably black. Problem is, no store here imports it anymore and eBay and Amazon don't sell the 32GB new anymore. Anyone knows where he can buy it? Thanks :)

as per title, i'm exploring the avenue of a new audio/pmp device   I currently have an iphone4 with fiio e11 and sennheiser hd25 1 ii's   I find there are positives and negatives to having the iphone as an all in one device and have no objection to getting 2 seperate devices (pmp/phone)...

Hey guys figured i would ask for some help here.   I just got my Cowon J3 and overall it seems to be working very well. However it seems to get hung up and freeze on certain FLAC's. From what i can tell i think it is the Bit-Rate of the FLAC's i have. Now most of these files on my hard...

EDIT1:Will the 6gen Ipod nano do it or should I buy the J3 (because I don't want to compromise on audio quality). My budget can stretch a maximum upto 400 $ and that said, I will be grateful if head-fiers could provide me with other alternatives that I have failed to consider. Storage capacity...

Hi,   I am currently planning on upgrading my portable music player. I'm pretty much stuck between these two devices (Ipod Classic & Cowon J3). I'm most likely going to amp the device with something like the RSA P-51 Mustang or the Pico Slim. Other suggestions for music players will also be...

I am considering several models from Cowon:  What are the pros/cons of these models?   J3 D2+ S9 C2   I have a iphone so don't need an Android or many apps., in fact I don't use the EQ on my RB Clip+.    Would it be wiser to look at another brand (ie Sony) since I may not use...

I'm just taking a look at some options for Denon AH- D2000. My budget would cap at 200, but I'm kind of looking for something that doesn't cost too much. Thanks.

Hi Head-fiers.   So I was wondering which amp I should get, I have a Cowon J3 and a pair of Westone 3's.   My budget is 500 USD.   Personally I dont really like the W3s on the flat EQ and I increase the bass slightly and the highs slightly.   Portability is a huge factor. So is...

Hi all.   I'm looking for a great DAC/Amp combo to pair up with my Cowon J3 and my W3's.   My budget is 700 USD...   I know the W3's are a low impedance phone but I really want to "make the most of them" and get the best sound possible. I dont want just a "slight" difference I want a...

hey im new to head-fi and i want a nice portable set-up.considering getting the z2 or the a5 which seem ok.but is the j3 still kicking?

Hi Friends!   If money is not an issue, and based on pure sound quality, which one of these is the best buy? You may add other cowon players too.   Use with- high quality headphones and high quality lossless audio.   Votes, as many as possible, are invited!   Thank you!

Hey all   As title, looking to purchase a new player. Have started to use Spotify a bit so having offline playlists on it would be handy, since my Cowon J3 isnt compatible!   Main genres I listen to are Alternative and most types of EDM. Will be paired with um3x RC. Am very happy with it...

I am looking to replace my Sansa Clip Zip with a better DAP/DMP in few weeks. The Zip is an awesome little player but its soundstage is too narrow for my taste.  Wish I can easily mod the Zip to increase LR separation, but guess that’s not possible. So I just need a player that has wide...

Hello all...      So.. I just received my new se535 replacements, and started using my j3 again for the first time in a month and realized how crappy a UI/Syncing is (playlist/podcast issues)...I've had my j3 for 1yr+...and while it sounds fantastic paired w/ my shures...I long for the...

So I bought me a 5G iPod, and due to weird circumstances with Amazon and eBay I'm now in possession of both a 30GB and 60GB.  Loving them both, but that's the issue - I can't decide whether to keep one, and if so, which one to keep.. :\ The 60 doesn't feel chunky, but the moment I pick up the...
