I keep switching between the user presets and headphone 3, feel the wind, wide. The EQ is so good, tames my headphone addiction, I can make the same pair of headphones sound drastically different! 

I think feel the wind is my favorite, especially for IEMs. Widens the soundstage quite a lot.

-> Limit for reading micro SD cards up to 128GB
 
Many users are having trouble using micro SD card with 200GB capacity. People can copy the files to the card, they appear on the PC, but do not play when the Plenue D is being used.

Sounds like a deliberate choice to differentiate between the budget and the higher end models.  Shame.
 
On a more positive note, I was quite surprised to see the Plenue D mentioned in the Radio Times of all places as a worthy successor to the ipod classic!

I wonder if the Fiio X1 II might make them reconsider.  Fiio claim in their marketing that the X1 II supports 256GB cards, and in some senses Cowon must see it as a competitor to the PLenue D.  I can understand that they want to make customers look further up the range, but the price points are prohibitive for some users.

Personally, I think there is no contest between X1 and PD. Cowon built quality is vastly superior to FiiO and if my X5 is anything to go by PD is better player in any regard, bar limited memory support.

Are there other touchscreen daps that come close to a 100 hr battery life? If none, what are some of the top performers (in battery life)?

Let it burn in 24 hours before you do any serious sound listening.

Exactly. Read this: http://www.golden-ear.net/single-post/2016/03/29/Cowon-Plenue-D-and-Cowon-Plenue-1-A-Look-At-1

"So be sure that you burn it in in for at least 24 hours before taking any conclusion."

I follow Golden Ear's recommendations as they are spot on.
