Nice review! :) I got the RED and I really like it. Hearing that the battery drainage wasn't that much different after all between the two made the decision for me to go with RED. Really nice nifty little thing!

Well, I have another new recommendation, try the USB Audio Player Pro, it isn't the best feature wise player, but boy did it do wonders for sound! Hope you get along well with your new phone!

Just wanted to add that I recently bought the USB Audio Player Pro for Android, and the sound really did kick it up a few notches. Really a big difference vetween USB APP and PowerAmp and others. If you get a Samsung S7, I highly recommend to invest a few dollars in the USB Audio Player Pro! It...

I'm running it with my Hifimann 400i, sounds really nice and I'm very happy with how it sounds. Comparing with Oppo PM-3, Q701 and Fidelio X2, the 400i are really my go to cans for listening longer sessions.

Can't say, but if you buy a phone for music, the S7 would not be my recommendation. I have it and find the audio qulaity to be subpar of that of SONY and Oneplus phones by quite a noticeable bit. I haven't listened to the S6. If you are determined to get a Samsung (cause the S7 except sound...

Well, I have the Samsung Galaxy S7 (European version if that matters?), and I find the sound quality with headphones regardless of tweaking the eq and eextras to be quite bad to be honest. Comparing with Galaxy S4, Oneplus 2 and SONY Z2 the S7 just sounds like a cheap player. No immersion, no...

I will have to check out the lurker mod I will have to look into Rockbox. Thank you for the reply, a lot of good feedback there! :) I'm starting  to do list.

Haven't tried Rockbox - does it make a huge difference? Have to admit that I'm mostly an Album by Album listener so the UI doesn't really bother me on teh DX90   I have many happy memories with Cowon players befor and liked them. Been awhile since I ditched my Cowon D2 and got a DX50 and...

Thanks both for explaining. So if the players I have mentioned are only sideways steps - what would be the step up? 901? Anything else that you could recommend or is the iBasso just very price-worthy contender that it is more sense to save up for better headphones? I mean, I won't shy away from...

Thanks for the input - but based on what? Have you heard the Cayin or Colorfly? Those are the ones I have heard SHOULD sound great - not sure if as great or equal though. Just curious :)

Hi fellow Head-FI:ers. I have a dilemma in picking out a new DAP. In that regard I see that many have the same problem lately. It is a sign of good fortune though, since it means that there are many new players on the market. So I'm sharing some of my thoughts and I will be grateful for any...

Just a quick question - did you experience the sound to change when you had the new XL cups? I bought the new XL cups since I have expereinced an increase in irritable ears over the years. So lately I have sold several headphones and the V-Moda I have gotten teh XL cushions for - but to me, the...

Can't say - I'm in Europe, but you have a small adapter for the main European connectors. Is that answer enough? If not please try to specify and I can have a closer check when I get back home. Cheers!

For some music I do prefer my AKG Q701's better. The clarity is better than the in comparison warm sounding HE400i. I have to say that since I changed DAC/AMP to Pioneer U-05s instead of my NAD 1050 - I enjoy my HE400i more. The Pioneer has a more direct and clear sound than the NAD that was a...

I just got my unit and I have to admit that I'm so far impressed with it.The build qulaity seems tight,the soiund is like most have described it. I really find it to my liking and my HiFimann 400i have got some new life.   Now to listen and enjoy :D

Recent owner of the HE-400i, well two albums old - and so far I love it. Compared to Q701 I think most things got boosted a notch. Running with the NAD1050. While trying to sometimes switch with the iBasso DX90, I noticed that the iFi iCan Nano gives it a boost to the direction of fun and more...

OK, I tired of looking at the sorry mess on my shelf so I took some time to e-mail the guys at AKG. They told me that I had to get in contact with the professional branch - and after e-mailing them I have now a PDF waiting for me with spare part lists for the AKG K140 that should help me find...

So far, except from some weird characters - that got fixed with the last patch - everything been smooth sailing with the DX90. Liked it so much I sold my DX50. To me it does all the things DX50 did, just slightly better in many aspects and some really better.   I do notice that the DX90 is...

Just wanted to mention that I received my player yesterday. I have tracked it since it appeared on DHL webapge. Everything went smoothly - even though information from iBasso is minimal.   Having said that, when I ordered my DX50 I had some troubles with the player and were in contact with...

    Thanks for the input guys, appreciate it! :)
