I'm looking for good sound quality and I have narrowed it down to Cowon i9 and D2+. These have buttons to operate it in the dark right. Which you think would be a better choice and why ?

Hi,   Do you know of any PMP which can display synchronized lyrics embedded in the MP3 files?

I know that this product is old, but I am trying to get a feel for writing these kinds of articles, so here I go.   This is probably the best DAP I have ever owned. After doing some research on Head-Fi it seamed like the way to go, was Cowon (if you wanted video playback at least). I was...

I have the iPod classic 160GB (late 2009 version) and after I heard my friends Cowon S9, so I decided to get a new one. After some research, I narrowed my list to the Cowon S9, iAudio 9, Sony A84x, or the Walkman S-series.

Hello,   I have been looking at current audio players to replace my Sony NWZ-E344. Reason being the screen is getting very scratched.   There are a few questions I have about eh i9:   How durable is the screen   Is the sounds quality on par with other Cowon devices   Is the...

Hey guys..   I know this is a quiet .. stupid thread but I am quiet new to mobile sources.. I need to get a good overview..   So I would love to know which players are "omg-damn-nice" and which are the "bah-dat-sux" =) So could anyone please order the following players by sound...

  This is my first post, and my first step into hi-fi so any & all advice is appreciated.     I'm trying to decide which to buy between three DAPs, Cowon's S9, iPod Touch, and Nationite S:flo2.  I've been reading what head-fi'ers have had to say about the Cowon S9 over the past couple...

  Hello, I have S9 and thinking to get a full sized headphone for it.  I will not be getting an amp for it now, perhaps later in the future.  I listen to classical, hip pop, instrumental, operatic pop, pop, R&B, and some alternative rock, blues, country, and jazz.   I have narrowed down my...

Anyone have any suggestions for Amps that would work wonders with Ultimate ears triple.fi 10 pro? Within reasonable price range? So less or equal to the price of triple.fi 10?

I got my SR-225i's today and now need a decent source. My Droid has only 16GB of space, the headphone jack wobbles and lacks built in FLAC support. So I was wondering would the S9 be worth $200 as an upgrade? Or should I just get a uDac to use with my PC. I will be using it at home mostly but...

Hi, have you any experince with this player ? Any comparison with a cowon D2 or S9 ? I thinking about this player, but i am not sure if that so good like cowon ?

Hello   Being an owner of a Cowon S9, I recently changed operating systems to a Mac OSX.    I noticed that Jet Audio does not run on Mac OSX...  What is your suggestion to importing my CD's via FLAC with a Mac?   Thanks   Dave

Hello,   Which Music Manager Software do you use to import your music into your Cowon DAP?   Being an owner of both a Cowon S9 and iAudio 7, I have always used Easy CD Extractor...then dropped the files into Jet Audio...when importing in FLAC format.   Do most Cowon owners simply use...

Is said headphone jack very strong? I keep accidentally dropping my PMP through various ways and it winds up dangling from my Earphone cable and i'm worried that's screwing up my headphone jack.

Hi All,   Here is an interesting thing I came across. I was trying to decide a new MP3 player as my old iPod(classic 5th generation) just died. I consider sound quality is most important part of an mp3 player as I have a smartphone for everything else. After reading a lot of reviews i had...

I use a Cowon S9 + Soundmagic PL50 and for the most part love the sound combination. Unfortunately i do find that this combination doesnt always have enough bass or warmth for certain types of music. Would adding an amp add a bit of warmth back into the mix? The E5 or E7 sounds as if it...

I'm asking for any recommendations anybody would give for portable mp3 players. I've read that the Clip+ has great sound, but nothing about anything else. The Sony E34x and S54x players also came to mind, as it's something I'm looking for. So yeah, I'm looking to get a rather small player that...

I'm not the first, but I might be the last person to drop their H320 down the toilet. It was in my pocket and slipped out when I stood up, plunging into the toilet and taking a full (not-very-clean) bath. I disassembled it, dabbed it with a paper towel, and let it dry out completely for 24...

I'm torn between these two players, as I am now closing in on a purchase. I've already decided on the IEM's, and plan to get the Shure SE530PTH. So, which ever DAP suits these phones, is probably best in helping me make a final decision. After having read a review, apparently the SE530's are...

From what I understand is that the differences are the size, microSD slot, and UI. I'd rather get the S9, since it is a full $100 cheaper for the 32 GB model. Did the UI get any specific improvements in V2.53? How can Cowon charge $100 for an SD card slot?! It is amazing!

I'm planning on buying a Cowon S9 today and I read that it is a little warm, so I that means I should get something cold. I was going to get the Thinksound Rain, but I hear they are also warm. Overall I just want a good pair of IEMs, bellow $100.   I've seen the following: Altec Lansing...

Hi, I'm going to be getting a Cowon S9. So far I've been using a Creative MuVo with an Shure E2C. Can't say that I was impressed with the E2C SQ (felt it was flat and dry) but it provided great Noise Isolation. But unfortunately its cable cracked and it doesn't work anymore. I'm looking for...

OK, I have been lurking around the forums enough and now I have to make a final decision: Cowon S9 + Earsonics SM3 vs the Hifiman HM-602 + RE262   Well, as far as I have seen, there is a grand total of zero person outside of Hifiman who have even seen the 262(I may be wrong), and I shouldn't...

Hey, I am currently using an unamped cowon s9 and some um3x with large oval single flange klipsh tips. I ADORE my current set up, but im looking to get some decent headphones for practicallity - they will probably be used for both home use and on the go. i still havent decided if i want an...

  I was wondering if it is worth it to amp a Cowan S9. I thought i heard in the past it might not be worth it. I have a pair of Fischer Audio Db-02 coming soon. I was looking at Ibasso or RSA......i like the dac on the ibasso better and the optical output.
