Hi all long and short I'm an older dude who finally has given up on CDs.
That's fine and all but I've quickly come to learn that my samsung galaxy isn't going to cut it when I want to play music (mostly FLAC) in my car. Neither plugging in nor blutooth has the sound quality or amplification I'm looking for. I need to crank the volume completely on the galaxy and the quality of the sound is pretty bad.
So I thought there was a quick and easy solution out there only to learn that the masses have traded in their ipods for their phones and I guess either have better phones than I do or just don't care about good sound. Seems that a portable music player is going the way of audiophile more than anything?
Anyway I can't break the bank here but I want something that's going to bring me closer to CD quality that I'm used to.
From what I gather a Astell & Kern AK Jr is a decent option? Or perhaps one of the FiiOs would suffice?
Thanks much for your help!
