I cannot believe that I've  I was really distracted when I posted this query.I forgot to list my Headphones. V-MODA M-80s and UE Triple-Fi 10 IEMS. I'll edit again to put it at the top. Sorry for the derps guys.

If the UI on the X1 is decent I'll agree, so that's probably the avenue I'll pursue. Yeah the reason I like rockbox is because it lets my potato Clip+ run smoother. I still like the ruggedness of the DX50 (if it is indeed as rugged as it looks) even if it is twice as expensive. But the Fiio...

Hello HF,   So with the holiday's coming, I've been given the question on what I want from my parents, and I was thinking "hmm, why not replace my clip+." I pretty fed up with the thing hanging and crashing, constantly refreshing media, and the like. My Father was thinking about buying me the...

I use the Clip+. For the record, if you don't already have one, and the color you want (if that matters to you) is more expensive than the other colors on Amazon. Call Amazon and you can be credited for the difference. I hope this helps :)

Install rockbox firmware on it. It'll take up to 128gb supposedly after that point. Makes the thing load 2x faster. And has much more bells and whistles than the Sansa firmware, and from my experiences less hanging up and freezes. Here's the rockbox sansa zip pages.   If the installer doesn't...

I do it every day. It sounds by and large better than laptop speakers and a laptop as a source, so I would say that its perfectly fine. Marvin Gaye is going to sound like Marvin Gaye when it comes time for the "other activities." It'll sound fine.

I am more than a little dumb. Your ellipses are well-earned. Obviously bed-time! 

So I got my current VMODA M80 Interconnect cable and my Triple Fi 10s from a buddy, starting my audiophilic journey. I've just now become interested in making my own. I have what I believe a silver dual twisted pair for my Triple Fi 10s. My question is, they are in a very small plastic tubing...

I think you guys helped me with my decision. I need the flexibility so I'll most definitely strip all the wires and braid them. I'm more worries about the danged thing staying plugged in while in jeans, and a a right angle 3.5mm to another right angle is just too much width. Especially with the...

My intentions are essentially to make a small 6 inch interconnect with one right angle 3.5mm and a straight 3.5mm. Its just to go between my MotoX or my Sansa Clip to my Ibasso DAC. I'm not sure whether I'd braid it or not. A couple resultant questions I had are:   1) It sounds like a stupid...

Last Bump. 

Bumpity Bump. Halp Plox.

Dumpster diving in the 7 dollar bin at walmart. It is hard to find something that isn't either Tina Turner or Hank Williams Jr.   1. Green Day - Dookie 2. Boston - Boston 3. Awesome Mix Vol 1 (Guardians of The Galaxy) - Various 4. Satan Get Behind Me - The White Stripes 5. Ariana Grande's...

Hi HF, I have come upon a need of variable length cables, and I decided soldering would be a good skill to master. So I break this down into a bullet list of all the questions I have about DIY cables that I haven't already found out through the DIY Article. So I would appreciate it if anyone...

Thanks much man! And I can always make another if it is too short/long. I think that about does it. :)
