Ok I stumbled upon this site after researching the Dr. Dre Beat headphones. Needless to say, I won't be buying them. I'm looking for the best headphones I can get for $250, $300 if I have no other choice. I mainly listen to rap, so earphones that specialize in that genre is what I'm interested...

Hi   I'm currently trying to change my Sflo2's firmware to 2.3.   I can't get to the stage where I can actually manually choose what driver I want installed for my device.   The moment I plug it in, it's recognised as a Nationite SFlo2 and it installs, thus preventing me from getting...

The new nwz s755 has just been released in UK, does this model still suffers from the low volume issue?   Is it better than the s639 or s739?

My portable rig at the moment consists of an sflo2 set up - but I also want to carry around my entire music collection of ~44GB (at times) and be able to access it easily.    I have the sixth-generation iPod Classic 80GB but the SQ just quite never gets there. My D2+ sounds a little better...

Hi there everybody a while ago I posted a thread and asked about a portable music player which delivers the best sound for my budget (around 500$) almost everybody agreed that I should buy a sansa clip+ and rockbox it. I was almost ready to get one but now I am reading these reviews saying...

Hi guys, there has been something troubling me lately. I got my westone 3 recently, which came with a nifty inline volume control together. My source, is the sflo2. My question is, is it better to listen to the sflo2 via the lineout using the inline volume control, or is it better to listen via...

  Pairing will be with an S:Flo 2 / Teclast T51.   Looking for clarity, lifelike sound and and speed so they can keep up with fast-paced highly detailed riffs. Do not care about bass response much, and do not want deep insertion so no ety's.     This audio search is getting out of...

First post here!   I'm currently looking to buy a decent portable rig.   So far I'm pretty sure I'll get the Stax SR-001MK2 iems. They're within budget and the reviews I've seen here, sound promising. I'm not really interested in anything else than iems as I don't like wearing headphones...

Hello everyone, i have been reading around on the forum and checking out different players but i am still unsure as to which one to get.   At first i was looking at the P3, then the Sansa's, then the Cowon's, and lastly at the S:Flo2. But i cannot seem to find where to buy the S:Flo2. The...

  Hello I'm buying new IEM's this week and a DAP too, I need a little help deciding.   First of all, I'm ruling out HiFiMan, a little expensive and I don't need a DAC.   Second, I'm ruling out Cowon S9, I've already had one and I'm one of the few people that didn't like the Cowon S9, I...

Hi I currently have the Nationite S:Flo 2, which I use portably with my Pioneer HDJ-2000. I am looking for a replacement for this as while the sound quality is decent (and it was good value for money) a few things bother me:   No lock function, I have to wait a minimum of 6 seconds for...

Hello Head-Fiers Hope you guys can help me ;D   So I'm always with her.. sometimes over 10 hours at a time.. she does everything for me.. its just.. shes not very good at it :/ recently, I've been secretly looking into dumping her for someone less exciting, but fits my needs better. This...

  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...

Hi my dear friends. I have cowon d2+ and I'm using it with BBE+. Although I'm grateful with its sound quality, I'm looking for a new mp3 player. I have read about S:flo2, a lot of people say good things for it. Is it an upgrade from cowon d2+?(sound quality upgrade) Can u compare them only for...

Hello there! I am waiting on an S:flo2 from mp4nation.com and looking to buy some k702s   I am aware that they are demanding phones and need a good amp. I would like to ask some questions regarding the k702's SQ when paired with an S:flo2:         1. Would the audio technology in the...

What portable player has the best sound quality for under $300?  I already have an iPod 5th diymod with internal elna silmic caps.  What would be better sq wise that i can use with an ibasso d2+ boa?

So, I currently have a um3x and a Rockboxed Sansa Clip+ which unfortunately is dying(screen fails sometimes).   Some players that got my attention:   Cowon J3: would've been perfect, if not for the bass roll-off with low ohms IEMs, as I plan on getting an SM3    S:FLO 2 + AMP: I've...

Hi,   I just recieved my T51 from Ownta but the manual is in Chinese? Any english manual downloads?   I plugged it in to my laptop usb windows xp and it says pc has to shutdown to recognise player which it did and does recognise player. Then it starts to turn on and show it's charging...

Ok so I gave my last iPod away a while back can kind of been putting off looking for something else. After researching here I quickly bought an s:flo2 16gb, which I haven't listened to yet, and got a good deal on an iBasso T3D.  I got the 6" Cardas 3.5 mini-to-mini interconnect coming from...

Hi,   I'm relatively new here. And after spending quite a while at these forums, I'm totally confused as to which direction I should take to improve my listening experience. I don't have crazy amount of money, so please go easy on me Budget is $150-200   I'm looking something for my...

Hello,   I now have Hifiman and i want JH3A but i cant afford it. So i must sell Hifiman. Can people that plan or had buy JH3A give us idea how will feed JH3A?Or give us any idea. Can i use only JH3A system feed form computer by coaxial cable?   thanks for all tips

So it seems to be the general consensus that the HiFiMan is one of the best DAPs out there my only issue with it is it's size.  For around $500 I can get a RWA iMod 240G 5.5G, of course I will need to get a good LOD (probably ALO) and possibly an external portable VCap Dock (but that is a lot of...
