Idk if it caps at 4k songs but i think if u browse by folder and not music u will still be able to access all files

Yep youre right, in music it's capped at 4k, but when playing by folders, the "missing" songs I thought, were there, it's just that they werent arranged alphabetically. Managed to listen for 2 hours and still the battery meter is full. 20 hours would definitely be the longest of all the daps ive tried. Great, this is just great.. ^_^

Hello, someone managed to try the Ziku X10?
I'm ready to pull the trigger between X9 and X10, I like more the look and build quality of the first, but the second has the aux exit and replaceable OP-AMP, should I consider something more before choosing between the two?
Wish they also had bluetooth, would have been definitive, but they are pretty awesome already for the price.

Don't suppose anybody knows anything about the F.Audio FA2 yet?
On AliExpress, says it's an upgraded FA1.
There was a bit of FA2 discussion on the Russian forum (http://player.ru/showthread.php?t=139961&p=2772097&viewfull=1#post2772097 the post with links to Tao with some happy and overly enthusiastic feedback) concerning the credibility of statements of the DAP having a "class A" amp part and some other aspects. However, these were mostly speculations and suggestions as there is no feedback from real owners (except for Chinese ones). Time will tell, as always:)

I'm in the same boat. I'm torn between the Z3, X9 or X10.. leaning towards the X10. One issue I read was that the X10 has SNR: 98 dB. The Z3 ≥105dB.. X9 is ≥ 108dB. I don't know what this means for practical use.

I like the look of the X10.. just wish there were more reviews and hands on feedback.

There is more negative feedback with X10 than X9 in Russians reviews, apparently stock op-amp not good and must be changed, X9 mostly positive(you can see that in aliexpress feedback system).
like to point out that i don't know Russian and im using google translate.

I just listened to the Ziku HD- X9 with the KZ AS10 on my hour long commute and Ryan Adams never sounded as good as this

Today my 2nd xDuoo X2 DAP arrived after a two month hiatus since my first one died on me

Even though I already got a LG V30 with a good DAC inside it, I really miss the bright and energetic sound on the X2, the DAC on the X2 definitely handles sub-bass and treble much better. I have yet to hear (or know) a DAP that sounds like the X2 but better.
