    Which DAP has the best user interface? Update!

    In the market for a new DAP and found a thread on this topic... but it's 3 years old! Lots of new equipment has hit the market since then. Is there a forum consensus for easiest to manage UI or at least a short list of contenders? What's your favorite? Which are the buggiest?

    Latest DAP recommendation? Any new releases beating forum favorites?

    Looking for a DAP that is: - Significantly expandable -- I mostly listen to my own music rather than stream - Easy, logical UI / management - Wifi / bluetooth would be great but not absolutely mandatory - All my music currently is ALAC and don't plan to get too exotic with formats going forward...

    Sony F Series VS E Series Sound quality and components (DAC)

    I'm wondering how much of a sound quality upgrade the F Series is VS the E series Walkman player.  I have the E series and the sound quality is great via an LOD but I'm wondering if the F series has a much better DAC.  I know the new F series can play FLAC files.  Has anyone had experience with...

    A new music player after a J3

    Hi everyone !   I have the Cowon J3 16Go + 64Go SD card, and, regrettably, the storage is nearly completely full.    So, I will soon buy a new music player, with a huge capacity of storage.    The Ipod Classic could be great, but is the sound bad ? How is the sound compared to the J3...

    Perfect marriage of the best UI and the best DAC?

      Lately I have been using Synology's phone app to pull music off my NAS, then do the D/A in the phone (Samsung Galaxy Note), and drive my Sennheiser HD650's with a FiiO e5 on the line to boost the signal. It sounds pretty great.    Their app fails on half the songs though, on Android on...

    Need a new DAP for under $180

    For under $180, what DAPs can I get? I'm looking for at least 30 GBs in memory(possibly including an SD card slot if that player has that ). I would like for there to be a screen, so I can see album artwork too. Good SQ is a must! Thank you!

    Can anyone point me towards a good DAP for under $250?

    I need at least 30 GBs of memory. What player will give me the best SQ? I've been looking at the iPod classic 7th gen, but I've heard some people say it lacks good SQ, is that true? I'm willing to go a little higher on my budget if needed. Thank you!

    Question about MP3 Players with Roll Off

    Can someone please tell me why some portable MP3 players have roll off? For example bass roll off / treble roll off. Surely company's like Cowon and Colorfly do test their players previous to launching, I'm sure with the technology they use can create a flat sounding / measuring player. Why do...
