    3G iPod Touch SQ.. Move over Clip+!

    The clip+ plays my flac files gaplessly. I just got it yesterday and put the 16gb chip from the rockboxed Fuze in it. I have been using rockbox on 5G ipods because of gapless flac which is the way all my music is on my hard drives. I use portables primarily at the gym and this clip+ seems...

    Wadia iTransport iPod Dock Gets Bit-Perfect Digital from iPods!

    I would also suspect it's a marketing move, to introduce people to the line and give them something to move/sell. The very high end audio biz is said to be DEAD numbers wise. General consumer acceptance of the term digital representing the best, Bose as being incredible stuff and more...

    Ogg, Gapless, Rockbox, Flash, Etc.

    I'm still a big fan of the iRiver IHP 1X0 (H120-140) series and have 1 modded 80gb and 2 40gb units and have another 80gb drive ready whenever one goes bad. Rockbox works great for playing flac gaplessly and the internal DAC is top notch. Besides if you want pure digital it has optical out. I...

    ETYMŌTIC IEM Owners Headcount - Are you one?

    I got custom molds for my ER 4S's. Baby I'm amazed! To me they have totally accurate sound including full bass, not underpowered whatsoever. The only "deficiency" being, when the input has no crossfeed or other manipulation you can easily figure out where the mics were and thats where you...

    Would you NOT buy an iPod because of what they stand for?

    I was tired of getting into the Karma refurbishing business replacing drives and the like even though the sound quality is really nice for my primary use, the gym. I had fiddled around with them since 2003 or 2004. I was looking for something that would play my .flac files gaplessly, have...

    I'm officially very impressed with my iAudio 7

    Question, I had a couple iaudio players a couple years ago. The SQ and remote was good but it would not play flac files gaplessly. Does this one?

    iBasso T2: my review!!

    Ibasso is amazingly customer oriented. They kept me up to speed on my D1 order and more recently have fixed my bad t2. Ordering from them in China is riskfree IMO. They, in my experience, make great products and have superior customer service. They emailed me last nite because I had apparently...

    Those who waiting Xin amp, post and get your date of arrival !

    Quaddy: Nope not that long ago. I just had to have the item or know that its been shipped or at least get a ship date as I'm leaving for 5 months right before turkey day. My patience ran out. I can't treat an ebay buyer that way if he buys a $20 item from me for gods sake. Thanks!

    Those who waiting Xin amp, post and get your date of arrival !

    I wouldn't be annoyed except that I paid via paypal and he has my money. Having been in small business since '78 I started laying out all the potential scenarios here including the Drs possible bad heath. I have no idea how old he is is but it's apparent he's gotten a lot of his knowledge...

    Those who waiting Xin amp, post and get your date of arrival !

    I just cancelled mine as I paid with paypal and tired of my money in someones elses pocket and they don't bother answering emails. I can somehow exist without a xin amp. I did pass on, once the amps are available I may order one. It's simple good manners to pay attention to a customer that...

    iBasso T2: my review!!

    My T2 had headphone jack problems and though I didn't have an invoice, Ibasso was very nice, and said they would fix it under warranty anyway. After 2 weeks, via regular airmail they acknowledged it finally got there and they will send it back within a day. I too have a supermicro on order...

    5.5 g Or Classic or something else. SQ-wise, which is better?

    The Ipod may be the greatest thing since sliced bread. I like the old fashioned one that I have to slice and to me, tastes better and it's more versatile. I also have a pair of speakers that weigh 150lbs each. I like em better than any DAP.

    5.5 g Or Classic or something else. SQ-wise, which is better?

    Get an old Iriver H 1x0 series, 20 or 40gb + rockbox + flac files. Clean audio, flexible interconnects incl Optical in and out. QQQ, do u use that nick on other AV sites?

    Does it worth to spent $5 to replace the cushion of ksc35

    Me too! Hand em over! The K35's aside from any sonic difference (?) are definitly more comfortable than with the heavier wire and plastic ear loop. IMO.

    ETYMŌTIC IEM Owners Headcount - Are you one?

    I had a set of E5c's a couple years ago but hated the way they fit in my ears. I also had problems whenever I wanted to talk breify to anyone on a plane or at the gym. I have a set of E4S's on order and will probably have an ear mold made for them as well. Question, sound quality vs the...

    Should I upgrade DAC?

    Amps maybe, DAC's? From what I have read, no. I have the feeling much beyond this the law of diminishing returns hits big time. IMO once again. In your position I would throw money at other items in the chain before I would in the DAC end. IMO once again. That's what I would do.

    Should I upgrade DAC?

    I think the reviews thus far on the D1 are pretty flawless as I remember. I run from an Iriver as well. What the heck could you upgrade to? I might ask myself if I was upgrading speaker wire from 12ga, to garden hose size solid silver speaker cable giving me bragging rights but no increase...

    gonna try this here. Move this if verbotten over here but... I am looking for a nice case or something that fits well so I can try to use this along with my iriver at my waist. Anyone have any suggestions? I refuse to do the rubber band thing folks. Besides I need the weight of this brick to...
