I am not sure if this belongs here or in the help/introductions thread.
I am involved in an exchange in why I assert (correctly) that my DAP sounds better a smartphone (android to be specific). Somewhat incredibly, the person quipped in response "And you will never convince me without explaining why it sounds better." He stated my position is "funny" in that "Astell Kern uses Android," so by that logic "it sounds infinitely better than itself?"
This comment strikes me as utterly preposterous. I have a rudimentary understanding of why and how this is so, but beyond just stating a difference in the hardware microchips and processors, I have difficulty articulating the reasons why. I am not a sound expert, do not work in any related professions. I just like music and can hear the (pretty obvious) difference with quality headphones and minimum 320 kbps files.
