Am I the Head-Fi King of DAPs?

[immtbiker]

I know this is excessive and ridiculous (have no idea how it got this way) but I noticed that I (with the new iMods) have an awful lot of mp3 palyers.

How many do you have, and what kind?

I started with a D-Link HDD based player that was huge and never worked right, but this is what I have on hand right now (including one's given [loaned

] to the wife/kids (but could be taken back at any time in a moment of inconsiderate rage):

-Bantam BA 350 4G
-Iaudio X5L 20G
-Iriver H-120
-Iriver H-120 Rockboxed (hey, it's got optical out [use with MicroDac] and no longer attainable without E-Bay)
-Ipod 3G 15G (wife now uses, err, I mean borrows)
-Ipod 4G iModded 20G
-Ipod 5.5G iModded 80G
-Creative Muvo 1G (son now uses)
-Xen Micro 4G blue (one for daughter)
-Xen Micro 4G grey (them and the ER4P's are excellent to keep in the glove for those in between service call park moments)
-Xen Micro 8G photo (hey, she got a report card with a 97 average, ok?)

So that makes 11.
I am working 2 jobs and Saturdays, so no, I am not a man of means. Just a man of desires.

What you got homies?

 

[Scottyyy]

A dead Zen Micro 5GB and an iRiver H10 6GB.

Psh, I suck.

 

[xnothingpoetic]

I sell what I don't use.

So I only have 5g ipod

also have broken a zen mirco and zvm (both HD failure), but can't sell those.

I had to sell a couple of components to take the family on summer vacation.

Yes that would make you a King of DAPs @ Head-fi. Now go pick up the Sony A-line, Kenwood line, and to top it off, a Beosound 6

 

[RYCeT]

I only got Sony Vaio Pocket 40gb, I'm tempted to buy Iaudio x5 though to serve as portable harddrive for my digital picture so I don't need to bring my laptop during vacation.
Do anyone use Iaudio x5 to serve as portable harddrive for Canon Digital rebel xt? Is it possible to use it? I learn the hard way that my vaio pocket unable to store my pic.

 

[immtbiker]

I looked at the B&O at a storefront in a local mall. I didn't like it, or their headphones.

 

[Assorted]

I hope you know that was a joke.

Do you still have that D-link dap? That'll be worth seeing

 

[DJShadow]

Ah but who's king of having the longest working DAP? I've been using this Sony NW-HD3 for 3 years but I'm sure theres some guys with Rio Karmas that have been going for even longer

 

[Dzjudz]

There's this guy at misticriver.net (pachinkoman) who probably is the king of dap ownage.

P.S. I have 3 working daps (iRiver iFP-395T, iRiver H340 and Cowon D2). I used to have an iRiver H10(5GB) as well.

 

[epaludo]

You're the king.
I think i own too much. An Iriver H340, a H120, a Cowon A2 and an Ipod Nano 8GB. Had a 4GB 1st generation nano, but already sold.
I'm good for now ...

 

[immtbiker]

My 3G has been pulling work detail since 2002 (replaced my 2G 10 gig).

I'll check my pics from that era to look for the D-Link DAP. It would leave pieces of a song in certain sectors when you deleted them and they would pop up anywhere in the middle of any song

 

[Kirosia]

1 5G ipod that craps out every 2.4 days
1 Iriver ihp-120 that can only hold a few songs due to HDD failure
1 Iaudio u2 that has suprisingly few issues (I love flash)
1 Crown and scepter

 

[rockin_amigo14]

i currently only have 3, as i usually sell what i'm not using to fund my next DAP purchase. i've owned 16 DAPs so far in my DAP career.

I have a rio karma that works, you just can't listen to it(headphone jack is gone). but it does turn on and you can navigate the menu.
