A player to replace my (cracked) D2
Long story: A year and a half ago I got a D2 to replace my dead clix2 and now I'm looking for a new player to replace my broken D2 (some clumsiness resulting in a cracked screen making the touch screen unusable). I'm somewhat undecided on whether to get another 8GB D2 for $135 (prices...- noteventime

Headphone suggestions for Cowon J3. Alessandro MS1, Grado SR225, something else?
I've been reading threads about Alessandro MS1 vs Grado SR225 and am thoroughly confused. My source will be a Cowon J3, unamped. I currently have Phonak PFE IEMs which I'm happy with, though they're not perfect; I use the gray filters. I also have Sennheiser HD 238 which I do not like at...- ejoslin

Cowon J3 weird sound when tracks fade out
Hi, I have noticed this since owning my J3 that every time a track finishes or fades out I hear a sort of faint sound like a sort of white noise/crackling sound. I don't have that problem with other DAPs but my Cowon J3. The earphones I am using are sennheiser CX300II. Art- Artmuzz

Cowon S9 vs. J3
I'm deciding between the 32G J3 and S9. Is there a noticeable difference is SQ? Any other important differences? I've heard some say they were disappointed in the SQ of the S9 compared to other Cowon models. The touch screen/video capabilities aren't a big deal to me. Thanks, D ...- DLRStudio

What am I doing wrong with my IEMs if volume still has to be high?
I finally got my MTPCs. While I understand it needs a 'break-in' before I can judge, I gotta say that I've never heard mids like this before. But a problem is that even though I plug these in deep enough to the point that I can barely hear ambient noise, I still find myself pumping the volume on...- thenightman

Replace Cowon D2 with the new Cowon J3 ?

DAP that can drive a 64 ohm or 80 ohm can (sin amp) to their full potential?
I have a Zune and a Clip +, and I feel that they are a little underpowered when it comes to supplying some of my higher impedance cans with energy. Most noticeable is the lack of bass, even in some of my more bass heavy phones. Rather than buy a new headphone, I would rather buy a new DAP...- gimmethatbeatfool
