    Cowon PLENUE M2 (Current Firmware and Manual Links in 1st post)

    So they put the Plenue M in a new body and called it a new product?  Weak.  Give it real battery life and I'd consider it.

    1. Not sure, but I would assume so. It's one of the first things you do when you boot up the first time. 2. Power output is definitely stronger than the J3. I anecdotally can see that when I use my cans, I do not have to go as high as I did with the J3 (on the J3 I would be anywhere 35 to...

    Sleep mode definitely eats battery way too fast.  I did not use my DAP for about 3 days and noticed that I lost nearly 1/2 of my battery life, not even using it!  I've turned it off for now.  Annoying as well, since I hate having to do the database update every time I turn the thing on.

    They're both the same thing.  Just use what you have.

    Not sure why you're thinking that...sure there is a lot of discussion about using the EQ and BBE settings, but it's certainly not necessary.  All Cowon players sounds fantastic from a flat standpoint, it's just that they do such a great job with the EQ and BBE settings that there is a lot of...

      No, it unfortunately does not.  Audio components are incredibly cheap these days - can you guess how much the DAC in the Plenue M costs?  I'll tell you - $6.53!  How much does the DAC in the D cost?  $11!   Cost vs quality does not equate, and while I agree there are some features that are...

    On my J3, I used to listed to my Sony MDR-1A's at around 35 or so, and with the Plenue D, I don't ever need to push it to over 60, so there is plenty of headroom IMO.

    Sony MDR-1A - Sony's latest update on the 1R

    Not sure why you wouldn't.  I just listened to Tchaikovsky's 6th last night and it was fantastic on the 1A's.

    Can't say it's happened to me, but I know that in the past my J3's battery meter was never right - I could go for a long time on "empty".  Try a full charge and discharge cycle and see what happens.

    Windows does not allow you to format into FAT32 - you must use a separate program to do so.  Download GUIFormat, it will allow you to format in FAT32.

    Does anyone's D do a database update every time they turn it on?

    What format are you playing in?  FLAC or MP3, or something else?

    Special number format?  All my music is labeled "01 - 1st song, 02 - 2nd song" etc, and I have no issues.  There are lots of players that have this same issue (my car included in that).  It's not overly hard to add a "0" to the front of any song that's single digits.   Outside of that, how is it...

    I see the new firmware isn't posted to the global site, but only the Korean site right now - if you install it, will you be able to use English?
