Lol, I just checked in here to strongly recommend the Ruizu X02 for anyone looking g for a great sounding cheap mp3 player and not able to get a hold of the Kogan (just like me

I'm sure you have :wink:

Just wanted to share it here since I was pretty frustrated myself for not being able to get a hold of the Kogan and this seems like a great option for others in the same situation.

Now all we need is for someone to compare the two, hint hint :wink:

Do we know what chip is used in the Kogan?

There are pictures of the internals in this link: http://www.head-fi.org/t/730831/kogan-8gb-mp4-the-player-that-came-from-nowhere/585#post_10957448

All any of our Kogan residential owners can make of it is sausages and mash potatoes (nothing). I will get hold of one of your players in coming weeks and see how it fairs against Kogan. Your discovery came at great time as Kogan is completely extinct until CTC Audio releases their rebrand.

I have already put an order for the RUIZU X02, since some weeks and expect to have it in France very soon.
 
I also purchased an D-JIX M550, it is an other brand name for the KOGAN 8GB MP4

I also have the ONN Q9....and the CUBE C30.....both good players


Nice, do you know what chip the ONN uses? I've seen some speculation that it's the same as the X02.......

I don't realy know peter...did not find it on specs, and never tried to open the daps....


No problem, I'll guess that the specs are not the top priority for these companies :wink:

68Euro is expensive! Thats $100AUS and doesn't include postage!!! The Kogan itself was, what, $30AUS!! Shipped!! That's alot of drachmas for some Chinese spacejunk!!
 
I will compare my ONN Q9 to the Kogan XYZ when it arrives, hopefully within the next two weeks..I am not an expert with the lingo in regards to Mhz and mid-range clipping but
will give you a 100% low down on how it measures up with my AKG Q701's and FiioE12 amp,,

a very capable chip. in the version that Basic is developing, there are several 'gimmicks' that employ the capability of the chip.
