I wish I had kept my old CD players.

I did find this.



It looks like a battery may have exploded inside. I can't open the door.

 

[gerelmx1986]

I had two casette players, one was JVC and the other i think phillips, I also had a JVC CD player (discman) that Discman ate the batteries pretty quickly
 
Then i had a sony NW-E507 1GB mp3 player (i used 192kbps mp3), from 2005 to 2007, then i has a sony NWZ-A818 8GB video mp3 player also used ****ty mp3's at 192K, i had i from 2007-2009.
 
Then i had a sony NWZ-X1060 32GB, also mp3, then i had an iPod classic 160GB i threw my mp3 songs and ripped to AAC 256 VBR (sounded weird too) it lasted me from 2011 to 2014, the ipod marked my switch from lossy to LOSSLESS (reripped again all to flac and redownlaoded what i could find for free, the stuff i couldn't find i purchased)
 
Then i had a fiio x3 First generation from 2014 to 2015 (sold) and now own a sony NWZ-A17 64GB and microSD 128GB i use flac since 2012
 
In the few days i will put  pictures of my new Rig XBA-A3 IEMs/MDR-1R cans --> NW-ZX100 128GB walkman and a no name 4GB microSD for testing (plan to get the 200GB sandisk one on black friday sales)
 
My previous gear was XBA-H3-->oppo HA-2 (sold as well)--> A17 walkman
 
I will do some comparison between a $300 DAP (A17) vs a $700 DAP (ZX100)

Is that OTG cable DIY?

 

[h1f1add1cted]

Yes it is DIY and works really well + good soild built. I got this because the stock OTG cable from HRT is crap, really bad build quality and I got zero response from their support.

 

[rmillerx]

HE 400s, DX90, and a 50's jazz compilation to mellow out the afternoon. The HE400s have become my go-to quiet listening headphone.

I will do some comparison between a $300 DAP (A17) vs a $700 DAP (ZX100)

looking forward to it..

Topping NX2 adds punch to the Aiwa walkman. Audio quality surpasses even some of the discman and mp3 players I have with this setup. Its bulky but great for home listening.

What amp are you using?

 
 To me Aiwa is a brand that was not only affordable but their designs (not aiwa discman) were impeccable and better than Sony design. Most units were robust and stood well against time.
 
If I could only go back in time and rumble through the garbage and pick up every Aiwa cassette player that was tossed in the garbage.

   
So good to see pics of Aiwa cassette players. I used to own one and I loved it.

 
I didnt have any cassettes until 2013 or so, when I found some at a local thrift store for around .20 cents each in new 'used' condition.
There are some cassettes which I couldnt find on cd and took the bite.
Being a heavy cassette player user (mid 90s), I just had to go back and experience what I did back in time.
 

  are you kidding? LOL haha odl-school soo coool, unfortunately i don't have no casettes here

 

[gerelmx1986]

Last time i used casettes was when i was 4 years old, since then CDs

I used to digitalize some of mine and save them in FLAC. Sometimes they sound better than the CD versions I have been able to compare them with. The proper hardware and you can have a lot of fun with them.

A bit stretching the word portable but it is indeed still portable.
