Those who have um3x and headstage arrow with sony x please try this: EQ- clear bass +1, 0 0 -1 +1 +1. Arrow settings: bass, cross and imp 0 , gain 1 volume half way. No hiss and the forwardness in um3x is solved with a little bit of sparkle that they need.

I have had my X1060 for over a year now and just started noticing that space is becoming an issue. Since I use it on the go mainly and never know what I want to listen to during the trip I prefer to have all the music with me.
 
Has anyone searched for an upgrade with as great design/ sound quality and much more than 32GB nand flash? 
 
I would prefer to avoid HDDs as they are big, noisy and vulnerable. I also do not want anything very big, unless it is really good and could also serve as a tablet for watching movies on the go.
 
Any ideas?
 
EDIT: I need the device to have a LOD option so I can bypass the built-in amp and use a dedicated one.

My X1060 gets older; sometimes the right channel drops out.
And since I owned the X1060 (2 years) I built up an extensive FLAC-library for use with my Squeezebox Touch.
I'm considering a 32GB Cowon J3, with a slot for another 32GB card; enough for ap. 200-300 albums, the owners are enthusiastic.

Mine is still working ok but space is becoming an issue. I have been searching for a few days and have found nothing so far with a lot of space/ goos SQ and a true LO like in the case of X Series. I will have to wait and hope that Sony release something nice soon

I'm also thinking about A847 from Sony. Any opinions? I know it i has capped volume but I do not listen to music loud anyway.

I can wait if I know there is something coming up that will be at least as good as X1000 or better. With a true LOD too.
 
Did you have something in mind? Cowon D3?

Since you've been a member here for 11 months and you have spotted my heinous crime, I hope you also take the time to go back on this thread in the last 11 months and give the same reminder to others who have written similar posts. And while you're at it, you may want to do the same in so many other threads where people have written similar posts.
 
And just for your information, my very 'offensive' and inappropriate post on this thread was in large part due to the very fact that the the Sony X is no longer being sold in Europe and someone reading this thread - who may not know about our for sale forum - may actually appreciate the fact that one of these DAPs is currently being sold in Europe. If you also bother to check my +20 feedback on head-fi, and do a thorough search, you'll notice I'm not exactly in the habit of advertising my sales in other threads.
 
You've been a member for 11 months and only have 10 posts and one of your posts is to do with my post written nearly 2 weeks ago? I have to say that that is indeed VERY interesting and rather curious.

well not the D3, that has some laggy issues with the UI, but I meant something new from sony, if you can wait it is worth it.

no need to get angry when its been said by mods before to not use discussion threads to sell gear.

I am hoping Sony will come out with a replacement for my X. I have been using Walkmans for a few years now and am perfectly happy with what the high-end ones offer - I can wait even more than a few months if something really good is going to happen

Firmware upgrade for FLAC support would be great... Media GO now supports Flac, so why not the X player? :/

None of the Sony DAPs support flac...I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for them to either.

Might as well ask in here since people are reading the thread...
 
If you buy a Japanese Walkman then they say language cannot be set to English. What about Hong Kong Walkman, what with English being one of the official languages?
