    Need help Rockboxing V2 Fuze

    I have been reading that it works with the V@ Fuze, but it's just not stable. I decided to try it anyway and I can't get it to install. I downloaded my original V2 firmware from Sansa, however when I try to run the bootloader in command prompt I get this...

    How does the uDac honestly stack up?

    ...good sides = it's said to sound REALLY good, and doesn't use opamps bad sides = the pot is cheapo and will have stereo imbalance at low volume, *but* all cheapo pots do moot = it runs a $0.98 DAC that's 24/192 capable, but they've used a 16/48 max USB chip. try to find one second hand...

    How does the uDac honestly stack up?

    ...don't work like that, what if he used nasty OPA2604/2134 and still called it "amazing" huh. I'd rather not mention it at this point, but it's *not* HOTAUDIO hah...it's actually a head-fi sponsor. Do we have to buy from a head-fi sponsor if we ask questions on here? Or am I...

    How does the uDac honestly stack up?

    ...from what I've read regarding HotAudio. I want to believe Head-Fi wouldn't stoop to the level he's saying by deleting everything pertaining to them, but who knows. Money is a powerful thing. Edit** Also says here exactly what chip he uses Why was HOTAUDIO.COM banned ??? - HotAudio.Com...

    How does the uDac honestly stack up?

    I saw mention of the Dac Extasy so I looked it up and it seems to be pretty nice. It's all hand built and everything and I've read pretty good reviews of it from other places. Anyone compared it to a uDac?

    How does the uDac honestly stack up?

    I am in desperate need of a better DAC and I was curious if the uDac is really all that good or just great for it's price? I am torn between the Little Dot DAC and the uDac but leaning toward the uDac because it's 1/3 the price. My question is, does the uDac really compare to something in the...

    ...use the headphone out on the HDP with no other amp other than the HDP, or use the HDP as a DAC only and use the Little Dot II as my amplifier. Edit** Now I see why you didn't understand lol. For some dumb reason, I said UDP instead of HDP. My networking job is getting too much into my...

    REVIEW (in progress) - Nuforce HDP 24/96 USB-Optical 24/192 Coax DAC Preamp and Headphone Amp

    I'm thinking of purchasing the UDP. I currently have a Little Dot II amp and was wondering if it would sound better to just disregard the LD and use the HDP's amp, or use the UDP's RCA outs into the LD? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
