  You're mistaken. The supplied IEM's are NOT EX750, but cheaper (1 mic instead of 2) NW750. I bought the EU version as well just because of them and I don't think it was worth it.

 
Sorry, they seem to look the same. I don't see where it's listed which ones are in this listing. They did drop it by $100, though. 
 
Also he has the A25 sold standalone for $230: [link]

The supplied NW750 have only 1 mic instead of 2 and no dedicated NC hardware, all is done in the player.
If sound quality of EX750 is equal to that of NW750 - I definitely would not pay that money for them, there are much better IEM's for that price.

Yep, the 64GB version of this player is not a good deal IMO because of being forced to pay for the 'not very good' IEMs. 16GB with an SD card is the way to go. The player doesn't differentiate between what is on the card and what is on internal storage, so your library will be consolidated on the player.

Does the speed of the system change depending on whether it's using the internal memory or microSD? Like the library build function. Is it faster with the itnernal memory when it's the same number of files?

I will buy the NC Buds despite being inferior quality, just for traveling on noisy planes or going to the noisy work place plant

That is not entirely correct. It does differentiate between internal and SD if you're using Folders to navigate and not Albums/Artists - you have to choose either Internal or SD Card.
You also make that choice during uploading.

I have not seen a significant difference and library's build pretty quick (it took fresh new uploads of +/-40Gb on SD + 10Gb internal approx. 20-30 seconds) and it only happens every so often.

I just got my new A25 and I am happy with it
 
Please feel free to ask me any questions if any

according to my comparisons, A20 wins is not much A117!

Yes, NC works only with NC earphone/headphone, other than that they are pretty much identical.

 

[Kvud]

in this case, I see no reason to spend money on A20

If you already have A10 series, there is no significant upgrades on the A20
 
Jump to ZX100 instead if you don't mind the weight

I did that, and i'm loving my ZX100 a lot, soundtge opens more and more, i will reconsider a relisten to pinnock's Bach Harpsichord concertos but the pnes i have from the Hanssler classic are very damn good recorded

 

[babyk88]

Pairing my A20 with XBA-A2 sounds perfectly!
 
I have a Creative E5 DAC and it doesn't sound as good as A20
 
I would say it's a good buy if you don't have A10

Aha, I did not know that. Thanks for pointing it out. I always search by Artist which is why I assumed the player didn't differentiate.

I'll do it! I was listening ZX100!
