I am currently using an iPhone 3GS 16GB, with a cheap LOD and an amp, and I am looking to upgrade my portable rig. (I use TripleFi 10s) but I am skeptical as to how much of a difference a high end DAP (which I am willing to buy, if the improvement is substantial) will make on the sound quality of my music, which is all in Apple Lossless or 320kbps. Another reason why I'm unsure about switching from my iPhone to another DAP is because the iPhone's user interface is very smooth and slick, as well as being easy to use, as with most Apple products, and I am unsure if the UIs on DAPs like the Hifiman 801 or Colorfly C4 or even the Sansa clips are on par with Apple's UI. Aesthetically I am not terribly concerned about how the DAP looks, and I don't mind having to carry around an iPhone, a separate DAP, and an amp when on the go.
Anyone care to help convince me to buy a new DAP? I've looked at many Cowon players and high end players like the HiFiman and Colorfly players, but can't really make up my mind whether its worth it. Suggestions on good DAPs are also welcomed.
