    COWON Z2 - The complete Review (from Izzi going)

    Quote: I have had top end smart phones and I have not had one yet that has SQ as good as a dedicated media player. I will always want a separate device for music. I don't want to be hooked up to my phone when I'm trying to relax or sleep.

    COWON Z2 - The complete Review (from Izzi going)

    Quote: I had the exact same questions when I was considering getting a Z2. I can confirm that you will get just as good SQ when using a 3rd party app. I use GoneMad Music Player and Player Pro. If you have the equaliser turned off on both those apps then the player will use the stock...

    I can't believe your battery lasts so long - mine doesn't last 24 hours. I listen for about 2 - 3 hours per day. I do use an instant messaging app which I think may be the problem but my phone uses the same and has no such issue. I have installed Juice Defender which seems to be helping. I wish...

    I keep mine because nothing else come close sound wise.

    COWON Z2 - The complete Review (from Izzi going)

    I would have to agree. Mine had just decided to show the start up screen and wouldn't shift off it for ages. In the end I managed to shut it down . I need it to work this morning as I'm going on a car journey!! It seems ok now. I have plugged it in now to keep it happy!!

    COWON Z2 - The complete Review (from Izzi going)

    I find the Z2 is quite tempermental and if not kept entirely happy then it has a tantrum, shuts itself down and won't power on again for a while. I have found that if it gets too hot then this will happen but it's happened other times too. It seems to recover itself within half an hour or so and...

    I have had to uninstall Poweramp due to another reason so I can't check exactly for you but I don't think I changed anything in Advanced Tweaks so just the default settings.

    I think I looked at it once but didn't use it - can't remember why. I'll have another look. Thanks very much - anything to make my musical life easier!!

    I have since found that the Z2 does not like music originally ripped by itunes. I now use Media Monkey. It is the only program that ensures that the Cowon recognises the artist. I have also tried Winamp but it doesn't like that either; I also tried dBPoweramp but I didn't get on with that...

    COWON Z2 - The complete Review (from Izzi going)

    Hi,   Is any one else having problems with the Z2 recognising the album artist. Mine says 'Unknown Artist' on 235 of my albums. (If it was just a few I could put up with it!) I am sure it is to do with the id tags but I can't see any rhyme nor reason re. which ones are recognised and which...

    Quote: I have a Class 10 64GB card. It makes a huge difference having Class 10. It is much faster to transfer music. You will need to reformat it to FAT32 before using it though/

    I totally agree with you re. where the charger plugs in. Rather annoying and awkward but it can be forgiven as it sounds so good.

    Hi, I also have this problem. It's driving me nuts! The Z2 doesn't recognise Artists or artwork on some of my music. I don't have an SD card in so it's all on the internal memory. Have you found a solution to this? I'd love to know.

    COWON Z2 - The complete Review (from Izzi going)

    Hi again,   I now have a Z2. My problem is that all the music from a each artist is clumped together. The separate albums are not recognised. Have I loaded my music wrong? Is there a way of fixing this? I copied and pasted all my music into a new folder that I created on the Z2. Should I...

    Thanks. I will investigate Rockbox again. I had a look yesterday and got throughly confused!! Is it a music played app like Poweramp? I installed GoneMAD on my Android phone as an .apk and it seems to have bugs and not work very well but maybe that's the software itself rather than the type of...

    Hi,   I'm sorry if this has already been asked but..   re. gapless playback   I understand that in order to achieve gapless playback on a Z2 that you need to use either Poweramp or GoneMAD apps. Both these apps are paid for and so therefore cannot be downloaded direct to the Z2 (am I...
