Hi there,
First of all, sorry for my poor English and maybe it's the wrong forum's section for this sort of thread.
I simply want to offer to my girlfriend her first quality audio equipment (portable music player + headphone).
She hasn't golden ears, she's not a musician or whatever. But the sound and use of my iBasso DX50 and Bowers&Wilkins P5 make her feels displeased with her lower-end MP3 portable music player and big headphone.
The idea here is to find a nice and pratical portable music player full of FLAC music with a good, elegant, discreet headphone for 200-250$.
The Bowers&Wilkins P3, despite its high price, is the loveliest headphone I have seen in this range but I wonder about its confort and isolation?
For the portable audio player, I first look on Cowon (audio quality/price, style and espically their battery life), but their resistive touchscreens seem very incommode.
Then I look on the Fiio X1 which looks well-fitted, but its low battery life, non removable battery and my ignorance about Fiio firmware make me hesitate.
So what are you thinking about my choice?
Thanks in advance
