Lol, the music was too full bodied for you?  Now I'm curious.

Go big, go for Sony PCM D50. It is often compared to Hifiman 801.

Those microphones at the top look pretty cumbersome haha.

Those would be awesome if they were spot lights and a disco ball dropped down.  Woohoo!
 
Memory stick only, ewww.  I'll by an iPhone before a memory stick, yuck.

 You've been a very bad boy........

 
Anyway, I'll see how it pans out.Yes the interface is not as fancy, and smooth as many are used to, but you sure seem to get alot for your money. The high rez recording feature should be alot of fun too. I plan to purchase some nice external mics for it.
 
As for the D50, Yeah I really looked hard at it, but the form factor isn't so hot for DAP use, and I think it's due for an update as the M10 had some updated features such as SD mem, and batt, life. I didn't want to be stuck with an "Old" model. I may grab a d50 for recording after the next update to the model.

;D thanks for not taking it seriously nywytboy68

the d10 would be hot if it had 16 or even 8 gb of storage instead of the measly 4gb, great to hear that it sounds good though!

Don't forget Korg MR1, MR2 and MR1000.
 
Portable and support playback up to 1 / 2 600 000 Hz and 10Hz-100kHz freq response, not a weak 24 / 96 000 Hz and 20Hz-20kHz Lol.
 
I think they all support MP3 and WAV but the main file support is .DFF, .DSF and .WSD, now where do I start collecting these file formats Lol.

On a more serious note, I like the Sony ICD-UX53F the best.
 
That is one hot DAP / Recorder.  Especially the girl that comes with it.

It takes Micro SD Cards up to a confirmed 32G + the 4G internal.

The M10 does.  The D10 says it doesn't.

Well, TBH, I'd love 1 of these for portable audio if I could get it in a small form factor, coupled w/LOOOONNNNGGGGGG battery life. I have heard these recorders also blow away the DAP's we use w/their stellar audio playback. I may test 1 out eventually,...................but it'll be awhile, since my audio "to-do" list is a mile long at this point.

With 200 bucks, this is a really good deal for you

. Compare to the brick d50, m10 has a more advance firmware, supporting good playback functions

 

[Woody469]

I was looking at those. Some have digital out. Into the right DAC or converting device of your choice, the flexibility is hard to pass up. I wonder why there is not more interest in these things. Too many people still playing MP3 files maybe?

 

[jpelg]

wmacky,
 
1. What is the playback interface like? How are music files displayed? Nested folders? How do you select songs...an entire album for example?
2. How is the headphone-out? (Neutral? Warm? Powerful?)
3. Have you connected the headphone-out/lineout to a separate headphone amp? Impressions?
4. Have you compared the M50 to other portable hi-rez recorders in the $200-300 price range, such as the M-Audio, the Edirol, or the Tascam?
5. Have you tried playing any hi-rez .WAV files?
 
TIA.

Sony likes to do that with their memory sticks, it's a huge pain considering how their magic mms's are the same size as sd cards which are so much cheaper.  Something like this works very well though:

I use one in my psp and the load times aren't bad at all with class 6 micro sd cards.  Make sure you get an authentic one though.
