F.Audio FA1 I believe.
That's correct, F.Audio FA1.
I believe that company used to go by the name XunSound. I had one of their earlier players too, the XunSound XS-01.
F.Audio FA1 I believe.
FA1 really really OBSESS me rightnow...never been so eager to try a DAP in my life! Tuesday is the day, as my attempt is enormous about sound and only sound, well, I will be perhaps too severe but we will see! This guy compare it with the stupidely too expensive 4000$ AK SP1000 DAP and FA1 do not really look to be far from him in term of sound quality (from what I read). Ak surely have more amping and better soundstage and smooter separation cause it use 2 AK4497EQ...but hell, price can't be justify whatsoever and this player is just praise by people that do not care about price value and take money bath every day. Hope I can listen to both and do a very honnest comparaison, cause I can imagine one thing: if I pay 4000$ for a DAP I want it first: to have a life warranty and life durability as well as changeable battery or ultimately long battery life, 2-SUPREME sound quality with sound filter that permit to have different soundsignature or a top of the line EQ, 3-at least 128G of internal memory as well as 2 microsd slot, android based touchscreen with total freedom of apps, changeable ampin module INCLUDE with the DAP, well, in other word 4000$ should buy a miracle, not a normal high end DAP.

does anybody know anything about the AGPtek H3? just noticed it on Amazon and something about it looks familiar, but I can't find any mentions of it on Head-Fi DAP discussion.
AGPtek H3
specs claim:
- $130 / £99 / €115
product pages at Amazon:
- 94 × 56 ×15 mm
- 256GB microSD support, up to 14999 songs
- 22-24 hrs playback at medium volume
- 8-10 hrs playback via bluetooth
- Hiby Link
- Texas Instruments PCM5102 DAC
- scroll wheel and independent volume buttons
I guess the inevitable questions are going to be: does it support proper gapless playback? are there any UI or playback issues? does it actually sound decent?
Useful first feedback, thanks It sounds like it might tick a lot of boxes for me, if the playback time was longer it could be near perfect, but ~20 hrs is more useful than the 8-12 hrs that so many other players are limited to.I bought it after I saw your post... ...navigation is intuitive.
Later this week i can tell you how long it really runs.Useful first feedback, thanks It sounds like it might tick a lot of boxes for me, if the playback time was longer it could be near perfect, but ~20 hrs is more useful than the 8-12 hrs that so many other players are limited to.
What is a bookmark feature?Wonder if it has any bookmark features for audiobooks/podcasts?
Basically it remembers where a file got to. You listen to a file, move away from it too listen to something else and then go back to it. More useful for podcasts and audiobooks than music.Later this week i can tell you how long it really runs.
What is a bookmark feature?
You mark songs too a fav list.
I really like this "M" button, its for quick options while playing a song without leaving the play menu.
I think it wasnt in the description but in the box was a 16GB SanDisk Flashcard.
Its the 4000$ AK ULTIMA SP1000 using dual AK4497EQ Dac.Just curious what the dap to the right of the cayin n5II (which I'm very interested in right now!) is please?
You're a savior. I had a order in for a z2 but just canceled it after seeing your post. I have a z1 so a Z3 might be better.Anybody order a ZISHAN Z3 yet???
Look like a very promising budget DAP....
Your so reassuring, thanks! I hope your not a lobby ofr Faudio toughI did compare the FA1 to my friend's Ultima. While the Ultimate is better in many aspects (e.g., screen, power, responsiveness, bass texture, details), I feel that the FA1 has the same sound signature and I cannot justify the >10 times difference in price based on what I heard.
Looking forward to what everyone else's comments after they get to compare.
