I just got the ROCOO P player and POPO earphones. I will do a review later tonight.
I don't have amp right now, but I will get one in January next year, so right now I will try the player with a few earphones, and headphones I've owned.
Source Comparison:
HTC Evo 3D ( Possibly boot Beats system in)
Sony Vaio F series
Rocoo P
iPod Touch 3rd Gen
iPhone 4
Earphone:
POPO IEMs came from Hisound for doing this review. (Thanks Hisound)
HTC stock earbuds
iPod stock earbuds
Rocoo P stock earbuds.
Headphone:
Audio Technica M50
Beats Studio (Yes, you heard it right. I don't like those cans, but my sis loves them, so I decided to give them to her.)
Package:
Well packaged both POPO IEMs and ROCOO P player. The player package came very tiny( at least smaller than what I'd expected), and well executed. There are charger and stock earbuds included in the package. There is also a VIP card from Hisound included (yes).
Pictures Coming Soon...
Build Quality:
Open up the box, Rocoo P put in the plastic bag and sit tightly in the foam. It looks and feel very solid. Holding it in my hand, I can say it's neither heavy nor light for its size, it's fairly perfect for the size( kinda to the light size). There are 5 buttons, and they are very very solid like they are built to last. Nothing about the player scream cheap and plastic-ky. The screen is kinda small, I hope it's a bit bigger so I can navigate my library easier, but it's still beautiful. I prefer more curvy shape as it will be less dangerous and feel nice in hand, but this one is not bad at all.
UI:
It's very simple to use. Volume rockers are in 2 of the 5 buttons on the surface( Up and down). Left and right buttons are for navigating the menu and changing the song. The center button is for start/pause/power on-off/select. There are headphone out, reset button, USB, and micro SD slot( I thought it was traditional SD) on the top and bottom of the player. There are 31 sound levels, battery indicator, title of the now playing song on the screen. It takes me about 10mins to get used to the features and control in the player.
Sound:
I don't play at max volume because any of my head/earphones' sound will destroy my ears. It sounds clear and fun. All cans and earbuds I have need to play at its full potential when I use Rocoo P as the source. I feel the bass kicks harder, sound is clearer like I use amp.
I hope I could give me more detail on comparisons between it and my other sources, but Rocoo P is too powerful, too refined to compete with my other sources. My laptop is a bit clearer than Rocoo P, but power is nowhere close to Rocoo P. My phone and ipod touch/iphone sound muddy, unrefined, weak when I switched to listen to them after 20mins on Rocoo P.
I will give more update on the player. This is just my initial impression.
