I seldom exchange the firmware, so, I havn't encounter the problem, I will have a try later to see how will be happened.

  With my SE 530, and MP3 320 files, I listen to the STUDIO-V with the volume of 11, the battery playing time is about 75 hours.   Quote:  

  great review.   As to the hiss, with most of my dynamic earphones, I almost hear no hiss with STUDIO-V. And with SE 530, only very slight hiss can be detectived at the quiet night, which can be ignored when the music is playing.

Any way, ROCKBOX is only a playback functions. Maybe it can improve the operation experience. but it have nothing to do with the sound quality of a player.

thanks craig's serious attitude for the new products. but we really can't wait to know something more detailed. such as how about the battery life? is ＳＴＵＤＩＯ can be the best ＤＡＰ in term of sound quality?

what is your budget? there are many good players for recommendation. please givey　your price range. thanks.

To have a decent DAP and a decent amp plus a decent earphone is really a good solution to against the environment noises, This is my experience. For good sound can have a lot of musicality and details even in low volume.

nobody like hiss. But it seems the high resolution DAPs are reported has some levels hiss, such as Sony X, Cowon D2, AMP3. So to pair suitable earphone is the most important matter to avoid hiss. As for AMP3, I can't hear any hiss with the stock earphones, ER4 and other many earphons. By the...
