FA7, the first Quad drivers IEM from FiiO , all Knowles BAs and 3D printed technical , MMCX design
I just had the FA7's for a couple of days, and it seems like these are not for me. The seal is better than the FH5 but they make a little too much pressure on the ear canal, even with the smallest tips. The sound has bit more detail on the higher frequencies but the bass is plain weird compared...- Mantrox

FA7, the first Quad drivers IEM from FiiO , all Knowles BAs and 3D printed technical , MMCX design
Just returned my FH5's since they developed a hole where they had a crease on the ear guides from taking them in and out so much. I was about to buy the FA7's but i'm on the fence. I like the FH5's sound, but the color scheme no so much. The FA7's look amazing, right up my alley, but i'm not...- Mantrox

Sony NW-ZX300
I understand that, i was just making a joke. Since this is what shows up on Amazon, people tend to get confused. In the photo its silver, but the model description says NWZX300S. Actually it says NWZX300S.CEW, so there's that also... Bah, whatever the color, i'll take it >_<- Mantrox

Go the Amazon route then, try both. You can always return them. I did, I'm in doubt just because it's amazon. Who knows what's gonna show up. I might get a rubber chicken.- Mantrox

Sony NW-ZX300
When it comes to these kind of decisions, it's about preference. I was split between those 2 as well. Both devices are very good according to reviews. Even though the A&K design is very striking, i have loved Sony's industrial design since forever, so i took the plunge. The A&R would be 140€...- Mantrox

Sony NW-ZX300
Awsome, there was a NW-ZX300S on amazon for £348 with a banged up box, and i was hesitating because i didn't know if it had some Sony specific model BS on it. As i was reading the thread i noticed there seems to be a hack available to remove the volume lock, even if this one has it. I think i'm...- Mantrox

Sony NW-ZX300
Hi everyone, a quick question about this DAP, there seem to be 3 models on the market: NW-ZX300 NW-ZX300A NW-ZX300S Is there any significant difference between them? Or are these regional model codes with no consequence?- Mantrox
