Better battery life? 40-50 hours at a minimum. Amazing.
Cowon signature long battery life. Battery life is way better than Calyx-M

Did you completely ruin the Plenue D case?
At least that's what happened to me once when I thought that polishing a scratch out of a DVD with a Dremel would work out. And the real bugger was that it was an extremely rare automotive DVD I've been trying to get for many years with no luck (I even got in touch with the American manufacturer to ask whether I could somehow still get it from them, but they didn't have stocks anymore for sure). One day, I had massive luck, I spotted someone selling a bunch of Clive Owen DVDs on ebay, one of them being the automotive DVD I was looking for for many years - and I had the lucky bid, for less than ridiculously low €20 (iIrc)! When the package arrived, I threw away the other DVDs and took out my baby, seeing whether it was in good condition. It was, but there was a small scratch on the reading layer, so one chapter couldn't be played. I then learned the hard way that Dremels aren't made for polishing scratches out of DVDs. It was a really dumb idea of mine.

Anyway, I'm not a hardcore audiophile but I can really appreciate the higher quality sound! The Wolfson DAC and Jet Effect 5 & BBE have been very highly praised from everything I've read here and elsewhere online. I believe the Cowon M2 also has Jet Effect 5 & BBE so I that would be nice. I'm just curious what type of headphones I'd need to truly enjoy the Cowon Plenue D? I'm pretty sure bluetooth headphones definitely would not be sufficient to enjoy lossless FLAC audio. I have some pretty decent Fanny Wang and V-Moda over the ear headphones that are pretty good. They were like $200 headphones.
Thanks for any input or suggestions on what headphones would let me enjoy the quality the Cowon Plenue D is capable of would be appreciated. Or any suggestions on the Cowon M2 would be good. Thanks!
Hey Head-fi users and Cowon Plenue D owners! I was curious if anybody can offer me suggestions on this nice Cowon Plenue D player vs the Cowon M2 32 GB HD Media Player? I know the basic differences between them. The Cowon M2 32 GB HD Media Player has the ability to play videos which I really like but I already have an ipod nano for that and my good old iriver clix2 8GB Redline that is at the end of it's life. The iriver was my favorite tech gadget I've ever bought. But the the clix function doesn't work very good anymore so I can't navigate it easily and the battery is worn down. I know the Cowon Plenue D is just a dedicated audio player/PMP. I'm warning up to the ipod nano but I find it VERY ANNOYING that I have to use their stupid POS itunes to manage my music!! It's so annoying... I also tried some third party apps to manage the ipod like media monkey but it didn't work for the videos! Media monkey kept saying the format was incorrect and wouldn't sync movies! Once I installed itunes I was able to sync my movies so that's good. I also like the small form factor of the iriver and ipod. Mainly use these at the gym and they are great for that.
