Wow, in that case the Dunu must be +9000 bright.

Yups! I'm using white filters when I make that statement. Tho I think green filters are on the same level of brightness as dunu. I'm okay with bright, but what I don't like is that the ba driver they use, twfk/30017, has characteristic peaks in the high frequencies which can be sharp and hurting sometimes.

I absolutely agree and it's rather disappointing.

Sorry forgot to mention budget.
Tell me upto 200 usd or around..

Vishal.

Fiio X3-ii is exactly $200 and well worth it. Then can eventually add an amp via line out

Guys.. I am currently using sansa clip +.
Now want to upgrade. So I am now considering xduoo x3.
Will it be a substantial upgrade??
Or tell me if you have more suggestions.

Vishal.
Happy listening.

yes, it is. i own all sansas and xduoo x3. it's a big improvement: better sound (extension, soundstage, etc.), much more power (to drive less sensitive and/or higher resistance earphones/headphones without needing an amp), bigger battery, rockboxable (like sansas), 2 microSD, cheap..

In the next days I will try the AGPTek H1, maybe it's a good competitor of the Xduoo X3.
Stay in touch!

seems to be reviewed very well.

  Well? Just pulled the trigger and ordered the REMAX RM-800MD hybrid! They are at a great price and coudn't pass on them! ....and they have a good reputation with solid construction on most of their earphones, for example; like the REMAX RM-600D, which I own and are extremely well made at its price point. They are going for 388 RMB ($58 US dollars).

Waiting for your impressions vs BK50

@Vishal For 200 USD, some options to look into would be the X3 you mentioned & the Fiio X3 as well.  You can get a used Fiio X5 1st gen if you don't mind used which I personally prefer over the X3, and that also gives you other features you might find useful as you upgrade later.  I'm sure there are other Daps to consider too that just aren't coming to mind right now that others can recommend.

Sansas? Links, please. Tks

There are many versions of the Sansa. I don't know about the newest one or if they are still rockboxable. The Xduoo X3 is a great player. I generally avoid FiiO DAPs and amps because they seem to have a weird amount of forwardness in the upper mids to me.

Sansas? Links, please. Tks

the sandisk sansa players which are worth it (clip+, clip zip, fuze -bigger, a bit more battery but love or hate wheel- ) have been discontinued since time ago.
got them in the aftermarket, used or refurbished. ebay auctions, mostly. so no links, just search in ebay, or trade threads of forums like this one.

 

[kiler]

They stopped being rockboxable with the Clip+ (the sansas that is)

my clip zip and fuze are also rockboxed (after fuze, no rockbox possible, i think; and sound is worse in those "new" models)

Actually, these are the ones I cancelled before being shipped to me. Instead, I went with the **** 4in1, which I don't regret one bit!
......wait for impressions on these compared to BK50, HLSX-808, and K3003.

I'm afraid discussion of Easy Earphones has been banned on Head-Fi due to a violation of the Terms of Service. This includes any products they sell exclusively.
