leaning towards the latter. but that's just me anyway :)

clip zip for me. still using mine even with all these newfangled DAPs in the market. use it mainly for running so no need for the clip +'s album art

+1! thank you for the release and support so far

true, or offer battery replacements (higher mAh) covered by warranty. and i wish they'd address the battery drain. the battery drains very quickly and it's surprising because it happens even if the device is turned off, sometimes even faster than a smartphone on "sleep"

indeed. can't say for sure how much shorter the battery life will be, but it will be shorter as more power is required to boost the gain. then again if that isn't an issue for you and you are getting the sq you prefer with the gain boost then i'd say you're one happy camper

not antagonizing in any way but when I listened to both, i arrived at exactly the opposite conclusion in that i found the 240 to be more analytical lol

+1. also please post new charging and playback times, much appreciated, thank you

odd, using SanDisk exclusively for my DAPs, DX50 included... maybe a problem with the local distro?

and still no update, too bad :( i know it's not essentially a dealbreaker but i'd like to have plenty of song options for when i take it on long trips

  thanks for this, glad to see the Dragonfly working with Samsung phones, great news

glad to see dragonfly being supported, great news

unsure if it was a demo unit or someone else's lol they just made me try it   i found it too flat, tbh, and that ruins the whole price-performance ratio for me. now i understand that's entirely subjective but there you go   i appreciate that it can have something to do with the fit too, i...

your audio interface is a DAC, that's how it can play audio from your computer to your speakers :)   with regards to your headphones, really up to your preference. i'd suggest visiting a dealer where you can sample different models and brands and pick out which house sound you prefer most

yes, a universal demo i believe in jaben

do you have any way of reinstalling codecs and drivers on your mac partition and can you maybe try out other audio playback software? not really a mac user but just my two cents, hope it helps somehow
