The Sad State Of The So Called Audiophile DAP Market
Couldn't agree more. I get the impression that some people enjoy spending all their time finding new ways to listen to the same music rather than using that time and money to expand their musical listening. A decent smartphone and a cheap but good pair of earphones and you're set for all sorts...- Lostinspace

Cardas Ear Speakers delayed but worth the wait!
What happens if you burn them for 100 hours and are stuck on a 4 hour flight with some IEMs you don't like? Why not just - radical notion here - listen to them when you get them?- Lostinspace

Why The AK240 Is A Bad Idea
It amazes me people will pay such ridiculous amounts for headphones and players when they can just EQ the music to make it sound different.- Lostinspace

Why The AK240 Is A Bad Idea
As far as I can glean from all the press, the big USPs of the AK240 are - to quote from the What Hi-Fi article here: http://www.whathifi.com/news/astell-kern-unveils-new-ak240-portable-audio-player-at-ces) : - In addition to a brand-new look, the AK240 includes a series of new features not...- Lostinspace

Great news for rooted android users--Viper4Android
i've tried Viper on my rooted S3 with Boefla and, well, meh. Its a massive battery drainer and doesnt improve the already excellent sound when using Neutron music player. Strikes me as a bit gimmicky really.- Lostinspace

Fit is everything with an IEM. If it - and by consequence the sound quality - moves when you do, its going to drive you insane.- Lostinspace

Cardas Ear Speakers delayed but worth the wait!
What miracle paradigm-shift materials are they using in their IEM construction that haven't been used before then? I don't want to get into the burn-in debate, I really don't, but you must see the lunacy in your statements? p.s. No way in the world am I ever going to buy a pair of IEMs...- Lostinspace

The Sad State Of The So Called Audiophile DAP Market
Well, why not buy another one then and sell me your used one for twenty quid? That should cover the postage. If it really is that good, you'll be making a benevolent gesture that can only lead to more of us hearing the best sound quality ever. If I don't agree, you can have it back. ...- Lostinspace

The Sad State Of The So Called Audiophile DAP Market
I'm in London - which is local if you use that tunnel under the abandoned well out back. Chuck your Studio V3 down and I'll catch it at the other end. Your question of price vs happiness is an interesting one. Does anyone have a formula? Obviously it will have to build in disposable...- Lostinspace
