Hi fellas, I need a good portable FLAC Player. I have listed a few options and my opnions on the same:
1. Sansa Clip+ : Had the 4GB player + 16GB card. Good player, but very short on battery life. Was using a Hifiman RE0 and lasted hardly 6 hours before the player died with full volume.
2. Amp3 Pro2 : Looks like this player has issues playing FLACs? Plus the 8GB card limit as I read on the site will be a downer
3. Cowon D2 : SQ is good? Plus expansion is easy.
I will be using the player to play ONLY flacs, no MP3s. Do not need Video capability. Occasional radio use would be as well, so having FM capabilities would be a plus.
I have a Hifiman RE0 right now and plan to get an amp alongwith the player. Hence please suggest me Player + amp combo. My Budget would be ~ 400USD for both player+amp.
If it helps, I have a EL84 tube amp and ATH-W5000 to listen to music at office. Hear mainly Carpenters, Corrs, Fleetwood Mac, Pink Floyd.
Thanks in advance,
Sunny.
