    Shanling M0 Pro - Ultra-Portable Hi-Fi Player, Now With Balanced Output!

    It was only a 16GB card, easily scrolled in my old sansa fuze

    Shanling M0 Pro - Ultra-Portable Hi-Fi Player, Now With Balanced Output!

    Is there a way to slow down the scrolling of folders? It's so fast that it's difficult to stop it at the folder that I need

    Quote: The same here, shipping to Italy over $50! When using USPS for two of these you should not pay more than $15. I would have loved to buy some...

    Quote: This is exactly my tubes set up since the day the amp arrived. I am happy with these and I never tried other tubes. Decisely better than the stock and no hum.

    About to order the Sansa Clip......read more

    I too have a Sansa Clip+ (8GB + 16gb microSD) and I love it. I just bought also a Sansa Fuze (first version) that's equally good soundwise (and uses microSD). I bought a refurbished 2GB unit for about 25 Euros shipped from UK.

    Quote: Garry and Scott - so which are the correct positions of the three wires of the OPT connectors? Both mine have black on B+, red on U and white on P, but from ETAHL pic here http://www.head-fi.org/forum/thread/536681/new-info-musical-paradise-mp-301-mk2/315#post_7454553 it seems that...

    About the hum affaire, I was the first to affirm to have no hum in my amp. I tried it for less than an hour with stock tubes and I found the sound a bit "thin" (but no hum anyway) so I replaced them with other tubes I had at hand without waiting the burning of the stock ones. I put two used...

    Quote: I don't know if it's strange, but I can assure you that this one was the power cord that came with my amp, and the fact that it shorted after a few hours confirm it wasn't high quality. Now I am happy with a thick PC power cord, but maybe you were right to fire the QC guy over...

    Quote: Hi Garry, yes I am from Italy and I got the amp directly from the China warehouse. Mine didn't come with a US plug power cord, but with a schuko plug power cord, so I didn't use any adapter. As you can see from the pics below the cord was very thin (and also very soft) when...

    BEWARE OF THE POWER CORD! If yours is like mine, rather thin and very soft/flexible, I advise to immediately replace it with a good quality one! Mine shorted today. While I was listening to the amp, I suddenly heard a "ciack" noise and I saw the smoke coming up from somewhere, but I didn't...

    eclein- I see in your signature that you own both MP-301. Can you tell us how they do compare in real world?

      Quote: Yes, I am very happy with this amp and these tubes, even though many says that a non-metal 6SJ7 sounds better. I will look for some in the near future. I am listening to it with my Dynaco A25 for now. My other speakers are Spendor BC1 and a nice pair of kit built reso speakers...

      Quote: $500 in tubes? Naahh, I surely am not an audiophile but I am very happy with my less than $20 tube set replacement. Two well used RCA 6SJ7 (so no hum ) and two russian 6P3S-E. I think you cannot get a better bang for the buck!
