I was told that Hisoundaudio has solved the issue of the earphone socket. So the first batch of Studio can be compatible with the customized earphones cables.

Thank Sublack's reviews on the full size phones paring with AMP3. I have HD 600, AND HD 800, They are good paring. I was thinking to trade one second hand HD 650 to paire with AMP3 for fun. Now it seems I don't need to worry about the match of them.

I was shocked when I read the title of this thread. I immediately reacted that there are must alot of debate voices to against the initial post. Yes, any one can say he like or dislike some DAP(s), but please make it more clear why you like or dislike, Or the readers will be misleaded.

This thread is out of time?, it have near 3 years old ? maybe can start a new one on the similar topic.

Ipod is the most wise option among the 3. For Ipod are the same league between the 3 DAPs in term of sound quality. The plus is you can get a huge memory and stable software. Take IPOD is safty. to be frankly I more lean to the sound quality of D2 of my taste. But most of my friends select Ipod.

Great works.Brendon, The price of Beta Brainwavz is really very competitive, I want to know who is the maker? It seems you didn't mentioned. I am very curious to see if they have other phones for exploring.

Welcome Darren, I am looking forward your reviews.
