Hello guys. I'm looking for a DAP player and as the title suggests - it's either the Fiio X5 and the XDuoo X3. Obviously there's a price gulf between the two, that's because I originally wanted the X5 but after reading much on budget players the XDuoo X3 interested me a lot. So the big question for me is whether the price difference worth it? Is the X5's sound 2X better than the XDuoo X3? Money isn't an issue, but I'm looking at from a 'sound value' perspective. If the X5 is much much better than the XDuoo X3, then I'm going to go with the X5. 
 
Any users have both players? Which should I go with? (I mostly listen to hip hop and rnb)

Dispel yourself of notions like "2X better". That does not exist. You pay for increments, and you pay dearly. :cool:

I recommend the Cowon Plenue D before the XDuoo. But then, the XDuoo has more potential storage, so...

The FiiO X5 is great. So is the Cayin N5. Both have two microSD slots.
