Hi, I am currently in the market for a new smartphone which i can use as a music player. So far i am really considering getting the galaxy S3. I also found that there were two models, one of which is the i9300 and i9305 (correct me if i'm wrong). Which of these two is the better one and which...

Hello everyone,   I'm on the lookup to buy a new mobile phone and what matters the most to me is the SQ. Even if it hasn't got camera or w/e, doesn't matter.   I've sold my HTC One, yes HTC ONE because I thought the Clip+ was much better in SQ with higher volume as well.   Anyways, please...

Greetings & Salutations!   As much as I like drooling over the Amazing Rigs in the regular thread, it sometimes just get a little too overwhelming... There needs to be a place for us average "Joe's" to post pictures of the Budget-Fi gear that we love and use every day. You know, those of...

I am planning to buy a mp3 player, just wondering which are the top 5 best sounding mp3 players. thanks~ I am thinking about the yet to be release sansa clip 4gb. Good, bad, better choice?

I'm looking for a quality music player that is low price and can power a dt770, although this isn't necesary since i have an amp. As long as it has good quality and low price (if possible) It's good. Small storage is not an issue. Thanks in advance

I'm looking to invest in a good portable setup. I need something light and compact because I want to use this mostly for working out. It needs to fit in a pocket fairly comfortably, or be able to clip onto a waistband or an arm. I've been using my old Iphone 4 as an Ipod since I've upgraded my...

I have an older Iriver ifp 595 (500mb) player for maby 8 years, but I am interested in more memory now. My phones are Sennheiser hd595. I mostly listen to acoustic music. The sound is not perfect I know, the Senn´s are too heavy for the Iriver, but it is ok. Iriver is 12mw output I think...

Just wanted to take a moment to give a bow to these guys. It amazes me how something so inexpensive and small can put out such a transparent nice sound.

Just as the title says . I'm using a Sansa Clip+ at the moment but I do not think I am getting the best out of my phones . If anybody knows of any DAP that is better then the one I have , please chime in . I listen mainly to rock of all types and some pop . I do not know much about how to tell...

Hi I am looking to buy a good sounding portable cd player and allot of these new players use digital compression to store sound in a anti skip buffer and was wondering what I should look for and buy when shopping for one of these devices. I would consider myself an entry level audiophile.

Would this combination sound good, audiophile good? Also, would the fact that the audio (all my.songs are in FLAC or WAV lossless) get distorted or be effected in any way by the fact that it is going threw the clip's AMP and the fiio e7?

Hi guys,   I am a new member, though I have been reading and digging for a few months at head-fi. Anyway, I would like to ask for a recommendation about a neutral music player under 150$ with a decent storage space (or support SD card)   I am using a rockboxed sansa clip zip. But since...

Hi there...   Today ordered my new earphones and in the near future (couple of months) i planning to purchase my self a new walkman..   As i will be playing FLAC files, first of all i thought of cowon, but later found out that cowon products did not support Cue files.     Is there...

Before I begin providing the necessary information for this thread, I must say that I apologize for making a separate thread for this. I already read that there was another thread for the specific intention of people asking for what headphones to get. However I thought making another separate...

I just got EX1000 by SONY. It seems the majority that owns EX1000 doesn't use Ipod Classic to pair them. Ipod Classic really can't drive EX1000 very well, maybe only up to 50%? But this pair sounds no good. Singers' voice is awkward in some points; sounds go very awkward when i play some...

Hey Head-Fi,   I'm fairly new to the audio world as far as high-end audio and I've been running a fairly low-end setup for a while now. My current portable "setup" (if I can call it that) is just my iPod Nano 4G and some fairly cheap IEMs (I've ordered the Kanen KM92s which are apparently...

Nice lesser than or equal to sign huh  but seriously which is the best?

apple ipod touch 4g 32gb or cowon j3 32gb would be better? would be looking to get second hand ones.    currently using the yamaha-eph100 and creative aurvana live!   thanks in advance! :)

Useless information of the day, pretty sure they share the same screen. Apologies for the terrible mobile phone pic.     Either nobody else has noticed, or the search engine here is useless. I'm guessing the latter.

Hi there folks, I am here to seek advice regarding my options for IEMs. currently I am using Shure SE315 IEMs with my Sansa clip+ playing flac files. I am rather dissapointed with the detail and transparency these IEMs have to offer. which IEM should I go for next?(budget ~500$)  Thanks

my earbuds that i use are shure se420s. but i may upgrade to something with a little more "zazz" in the future. im not a collector obviously. i try to find my taste and stick with it.   in the meantime i have these shures which happen to have the characteristic of craving a high quality...

I currently have a JDS Labs C5 and ODAC combo. The amp & a Sansa Clip+ have been serving me very well on my travels. Now that I'm back in the office (a craptacular Dell laptop docking station setup), I'm moving back to my ODAC setup on Windows + Foobar 2000.   When I was setting things up the...

I have a Sansa clip with a set of shure se530s could anybody suggest a good amp for this combination?  thanks

Hi I currently have a Sansa Clip and am wondering if it is worth upgrading my source. I use TF10s, IE8 and RE0 mainly in the order of how often I listen to each. Would it be worth shelling out an extra $240AUD for it or would the differences be very marginal or even a sidegrade?

Hi, I ordered Ultimate Ears 700's, and I'm interested in getting a small sized MP3 player.   I have an iPod Touch 2nd gen, but something smaller might be more suitable for cardio and even in school.   Are there any mp3 players out there that have better sound quality than the 4th Gen...
