What DAC are you using, please?

You could find something like that while in Japan.

There are none as far as I know. There used to be some potable CD players able to rio mp3 into SD cards, but nothing with high quality standards. I guess you are better off getting your CD and play them with a good portable until you return home.

Yep. But if you still buy CDs this is the way to go on the way back home to your ripping rig.

It's a Memorex cheapie. I forgot to mention that it has a lineout. That's important if you use an amp.

Hi. I still use a portable CD player from time to time, but it's connected to the line in of my Topping DAC and I think it sounds very good. But, there is a general consensus that the best sounding players are those made before the comming of antishock protection. Or at least those that had...

Nomadic combo.

Hey guys. I just Saw Trolldragon is back and decided to comeback too. Here are my budget killers. Grado SR 125, Shure SE 215, Auvio Concert Series, Topping NX4 and BT converter by Steren.

Is anybody still using the old Kogan? Mine died for good sometime ago, but I am wondering if I should get one again (and if you know where, let me know please), go for a DAC for my phone or get the Cayin N3 that I liked so much sometime ago. Oh, an hi @Redcarmoose.

I am still using mine sometimes, with a battery pack I made with 3 AA batteries or a Powerbank battery. It still rocks after all this time and it takes better pictures than my crappy phone.

In case you guys are wondering, this is the original Kogan player and they are still making and selling them. http://oriver.net/e_productshow/?14-O5-24-TFT-Video-Player-with-Camera-14.html

I just got a set of these for less than four dollars with a street vendor in Mexico City. I like them very much but they need more volume. I guess they have a high ohm rate. But they have all the good qualities mentioned above. I would also add that they are light and have nice, thick cables...

@serman005 maybe you can take a look and tell us what you think.

I found these babies at a local store here in Mexico City. They retail for around 200 dollars, but they go for around 130 bucks in the U.S. Fed by my Sony NWZ X1050 they sound nice and pretty clear. Good bass. I think they make a very good set of Rock cans. Anybody has opinions on these? And by...

Dear @Mshenay. I need your address so I can send you the N3. Please. Have a nice day. Carlos

I have a silly question: How do use the Cayin as a DAC with the PC. I have installed the driver but the manual is scarce in that area. I also inserted a 8GB card in order to test the player, but there is no spring release it seems and I would really like to know how can I extract it without...

Well, since I am in Mexico and this is a worldwide tour, I guess I'll join. Head-Fi username: Onix Location (City, Country): Mexico City, Mexico Current Portable Source gear: NWZ-X 1050 Walkman, Lenovo A1000 Current headphones: Sony MDR-NC020 noise cancelling iems Portable Amplifiers: None now...

Thanks to you guys I am getting a Monk. I will order next payday.

  I've checked B&H and they still have it. Thanks for the tip mate.

  The X106x and X105x are old players, from 2009 or 2010. I got mine for around a 100 bucks NIB two months ago. When new it retailed for around 200 pounds.   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walkman_X_Series

  I have the NWZ x1050. How do you like those buds? I am looking for something lively with great bass.  

Hi guys, anybody knows who makes a good line out cable for walkman? I need to get one before I get my new amp. I would rather deal with someone in the US if possible, just to make things more expedite. Thanks.

  And that DAP is a....? And the buds are...? ;)
