After reading several praises for the SQ of the hard disk Media Keg and the MGR-A7

, I wonder if I should buy a flash-based Kenwood Dap (like MG-F500 series) or the old praised ones. Does anyone know if the SQ between these two kinds different or not

? Their prices are different of course

 

[aloksatoor]

where are you sourcing the flash based ones?

 

[quangphucqp]

Just like this one. The price is about 150 bucks.

Post deleted by me. I mistook another DAP as Kenwood's.

You'll have to search for the reviews on the new Kenwoods. I read them and the new flash players were reported to not sound as good as before or as good as Sony or Cowon better offerings. [Review] Kenwood MG-F500 Series, Back to the Basic « Akihabara News

You have to remember that Kenwood is part of JVC now. So it could be reasoned that Victor/JVC might just not let Kenwood best the sound of their offerings. Think of AIWA before and after Sony swallowed them up.

i think the old praised one is not A7, but D9. A7 doesnt have supreme ex

its the first dap kenwood pulled out since the JVC merger, and it has aac support, it does look promising,

i hope it dosnt hisses and lag like my old kenwood media keg,

 

[a_tumiwa]

but i dont understand why they dont want make it support FLAC, even KLAC is eliminated

i can pull a 16GB one off ebay for 167 euros, but im not sure,

After checking info, it seems that the flash-based does not have Supreme technology

. Does Supreme affect the SQ much ?
