I've just ordered a Shozy Alien black DAP - How does it sound when added with an amp and any tips on how to play random albums and tracks on Alien?

3 long press on volume down button
Well truth be told, the alien sounds pretty fantastic by itself already but due to slight hiss the alien has, I use the amp pretty much only for that reason which is to remove the hiss.

Well... if sound improved? Maybe a little, I can't say for sure but I won't be putting any lousy amps with it to degrade it's sound that's for sure.

I'm sure H20 would love to chip in and tell you more.

  That Linum cable looks great aesthetically. Do you think it can withstand daily wear and tear, because it does look delicate?

This tiny cable is trong as ******, I trust this cable more durability as any other IEM cable I own. Here some tech stuff about the strength: http://www.linum.dk/technology/

Just FYI, my Linum Bax cable right side just died. And I hardly use the cable at all. Might feel strong on the outside but not so durable on the inside.

  Some more Koss love on this Sunday afternoon :)
 

Hi @clee290
I own a Jr and also a C5 that I previously used with my FiiO X1. I don't feel the need to use the C5 with my SM64 anymore. Being 98Ohms the X1 was not able to drive them properly while the Jr does IMHO.
I gave a try to C5+Jr and found just a bit of coloration. Not as big as a value than with X1. With big withdraw that you loose the cool formfactor of Jr.
What is your opinion? your motivation to use C5?
