i recently had the chance to do a quick demo between scorpion, black widow and virus. i thought i'd leave my impression of the cables. One thing in common between these cables, all of them have copper traces in them.  *Im no professional reviewer like many of you guys are. Pls do excuse...

im back to my stock 8.0.2. i felt the the russian f/w , made vocals too forward, thinning out the bass. It was enjoying at first, but after some time, i felt songs just felt strange. it didnt had the R10 sound, the sound which i paid close to 700USD for. this is based solely on my opinion.

they take in RMA now internationally? wow! 

thanks i got it figured out finally. :)

EDIT, i just manage to upgrade. i simply drag the update.img file to my r10. MOST IMPORTANT STEP, you must reverse the hierarchy. Make sure the update.img is the first icon, file among the rest. after you "turn off usb"it will prompt you to upgrade, else restart it, and bam, problem...

did anyone tried updating from fw 8.0.2 to russian fw that was mention a few pages ago? i cannot seem to update due to error on claiming file wasnt up to date. However manually edit and checking the file , proves otherwise, that drivers are all up to date. scratching my head on this.

thank you! am reading up on that now due to your input.  Hope you have a good day ahead:)

many thanks for your positive input. cheers, J

Can someone explain this to me? i cant seem to understand the acronym (SOC, FPGA, I/V, LPF, VOL,OP and BUF) Ill suppose  VOL is volume, OP is opamp and BUF and buffer? Quote:

Hi guys, can anyone of you do a step by step on how to change the battery. My battery is getting worst by the day. Thanks alot:)

You got your screen fixed i see!

Hey there, how you finding the QA360 vs AK240 ? im really curious to know what you think of it.

my apologizes for misreading your statement. Those website sells the player only. i do not know if they sell the battery.

well if your ready to make the leap of faith, Pricejapan.com, kakaku, fromJapan are places where you can secure a unit for yourself:)

Removing is easy. I'm thinking of getting a new battery too. My battery never gets 100%. Always at 80-85% when I leave it to charge. Worst still, when charging, it just shows battery fully charged. Doesn't indicate whether its full or empty. On a side note, this has been a really promising...

Hi frank. I know your pretty busy and may have missed out my pm. Would love to receive a response from you. Thank you !

The unit wasn't that buggy. Except for the slow boot up and reaction. Make sure you get from a place that will help you send it back. As of now I'm stuck with paper weight because neither side wishes to help.

So yodobashi camera has stated they won't be able to help. Unless I fly down to Japan and go to their shop for exchange or refund. Hibino on the other hand has yet to reply. Been 3 days since I sent the email to hibino intrtsound. Right now, I'm happy to just get it to work again. Other then...

Its not responding to that as well. Shall see what hibino intersound and yodobashi camera have to say. Was really beggining to enjoy the player

I beloved I jinxed my player. It can't boot up now. Was working perfect the night before and couldn't boot it up this morning. Initially figured it was low battery. But now when its plugged into the wall charger. It shows no sign of charging. Have tried pressing the reset button on the side...

I honestly think s0ny has a defective unit. Try sending it back to get it fixed ? From what I recall, price Japan do assist in such situation. But I believe you need to pay for it. That being said, my r10 I purchased from yodobasi camera has been working flawlessly. Granted that's its slow to...

Managed to snag one up from yodobashi.listening to songs really put a smile on my face now compared to my iPod.

looks like i wont be owning this after all. amazon japan r10 sold out when i bought it. now i got bunch of accessories waiting to be shipped but no player.

No love for the dx100/r10?
