Thank goodness I got my new X in time...love this player. 
 
Huge sound possible with IE8 and adjustable. Totally happy! 
 
I hope Sony will always have something at least as good in SQ as the X in production... 
 
Wondering how the Cowon X7 will compare in SQ.

NYC....I am grieving.  Drunk as hell friday night/ saturday morning, basically passed out on the 4 train....someone pickpocket me for pack of cigarettes, my X1000, and my shure se530's.  Do I re-purchase or can someone reccomend something newer.  Does any body know if sony plans to release 32 or 64 gb a series in usa?  I really don't want to mess around with any other brand than sony, tried other brands (sansa, creative, apple, cowon...) they just don't do it for my ears.

Sony just released new Walkman DAP's, but they are not being sold in the US.  No new touchscreen player was released, but the new A series (A845) has the same features in a smaller package.  It comes in a 64gb model, but the price will be steep.

i think its better to still buy an x series walkman than the a series.
the a series cannot match the sound quality of the x.
that is only my opinion, based on some of the reviews i have read.

Ah man, that sucks!
 
A great thing about living in Japan is that you can basically pass out with your wallet, cellphone and DAP next to you, and it will still be there when you wake up. My home country Sweden is more like the US. I'm sure gonna miss the sense of security here in Japan when I return to Sweden.
 
Even if the X series is discontinued (here in Japan it has not been available in stores for about 1 month), I think you should go for a new X.
I am not a Sony guy, but in my impression, the X series seems to be the most appreciated among the Sony DAP:s when it comes to sound.

audioengine a5 in particular.

While the X series is gone from the Sony stores in Ireland, its still on sale in some other electronic shops. But the price has never dropped. A few pop up on the local classified ads though. I've been temped to get one. But my A818 is still going strong and X is a lot more expensive. 

 

[dissembled]

What affordable LODs are available for the player?

I just did battery test on my 12 months old Sony X walkman 16gb, and it still gives me 25 hours flat!!! Well, during past year I didn't use it that much ... 

. 
During the test, I used 50% volume( 15/30) on stock earbuds without any eq or settings with a one break of 2 days between continuous playback.
1st playback-5:30 continuous pb.
2nd playback-19:30 continuous pb.
music files- 320 kbps mp3.
 
And ya loving its sound with Grado-sr80 very much..

Which model- A840 or S754 Sony have the best sound quality ?

 

[nonsupremous]

BH Photo and Video has discontinued the 16GB X series.  Has anyone heard that the X is going to be replaced next year? 

 

[latenlazy]

We will find out in a month.

Having now own this X1000 gem since March, I dont see myself buying another MP3 player again ever.  The X1000 is by far the best sounding, not even the ipod compares for sound quality.

I love it too...but for the additional storage + battery + full EQ I will buy a Cowon X7 to compliment my Sony X (the X7 is bigger and slower).
 
Hmmm, unless Sony have something up their sleeve...
