I'm not sure what country you are in, so I hope this doesn't sound like I'm being a jerk, but the SanDisk has been $80 for weeks and dropped to $60 about a week ago. Regardless, I'm grateful for more competition though, let's bring those prices down!!!

The Lexar is faster than the SanDisk. I'm glad I got the SanDisk at the price I did, I was able consolodate my 128 and 64 and still have room to spare.

Oups.... I was still under the memory of a much higher price for the SD 200gb. This price drop is a good news. And may be it even anounce a higher capaciteit microSD ?

Actually it is okay if you get Shure SE535 for less than $500 (I got mine used $300). But if you are replacing the stock cable with custom made and comply tips it will bring you to the next level especially the balanced cable IMO. The cable as a whole cost me $400.

Oh well, as Whitigir says, enjoy your music mate.

Ball! enjoy your music !

If anyone is looking for a cheap balanced MMCX cable, you can get  on one on Ebay for $50-$60 dollars. This will give you the option of balanced, without breaking the bank. The other one.
 
These are better quality, but about $70-$90 range.

The latter ones are impact audio cables which have excellent SQ.

How good is their support? Do they support their product for +2 years (fw updates )?

200GB is the limit of current technology. That's why it's 200 rather than that 256 GB ... it's all that will fit 

 
 
Higher capacities require a move to new '3D' tech, which has just begun manufacture. I think general availability at sensible prices is still a little way off.

Hello! Everyone,
 
Has anyone experienced the stock ONKYO MUSIC PLAYER crashing on every song being played from a particular artist/album?

It's really annoying as I just bought an album from Enya, Dark Sky Island, 96KHz/24-bit, from HDTRACKS.  The stock player would keep crashing on every song being played.
 
I tried downloading PowerAmp player (Trial) to see if it the issue is related to the downloaded files, but the player played through the files without any issues.
 
Any advice from the seniors here would really be great and appreciated.
 
My DP-X1 is running the latest firmware and latest stock player with folder search function.

Nope, you're not alone, I've tested 3 DP-X1s with Steel Panther tracks (bloody hilarious, by the way) and it crashes extremely often when playing their songs unless when selected via folder mode. Maybe you can give that a try?

Sorry, the Onkyo won't play that music. You'll need to upgrade your taste 

 
 
 
 
What have you got the 'Lock Range Adjust' setting at? If it's at 'Narrow', perhaps try moving it back to "Normal or 'Wide'. I've had problems with playback of hi-res files at the narrow setting although it didn't crash the player so I suspect it may be something else in your case.

@rushofblood just tried what you have suggested.  It seemed to work the first time but when I tried going to the next track, it crashed again.
 
@Peridot Trying your suggestion now.  Meanwhile any suggestion on how I can upgrade my taste?  Where do I start?

Only kidding on the taste ... you could do a lot worse than Enya. Personally though, I prefer her older sister and other family members in Clannad. The other great Irish musical family is the Black family - Mary Black
 
All sound great on the DP-X1

Thinking of getting the DPX1, but I worry that Tidal won't work when used as a transport to my Hugo.

Does anyone have any experience running onkyo as a transport to an amp?

I ask this because Tidal won't work when used as a transport from my Samsung Note 4 running Android 5.1.1

I have no problem when using Tidal on my DP-X1 connected as a transport to my Mojo, except for the dreaded "Android" upsampling. I get around this personally using UAPP on my DP-X1 only thing is UAPP will not have access to Offline stored music.
 
EDIT: If I use any of my Android devices as a transport I am able to play back Tidal using the Mojo, again the Android Upsampling will be experienced.

I would imagine using the Hujo should be the same

 

[Jimmy6]

Ah cheers. Thanks for replying so soon!

Does the Android upsampling change the sound much for the worse? Say compared to using an iPhone or iPad as a transport to stream Tidal to the Hugo?

That's a bummer not being able to access offline stored music using the UAPP

This is off-topic, but would I also be able to use Tidal through my Note 4 using the UAPP app?
