Argh! No EQ
hmmmmm...
vs Aune m1s
OK finally got a little time for the X10. First, I am a bit mad coz I aligned the screen protector perfectly but coz I was a bit careless I ended with two annoying spots. Anyway, I'll use it like that for a while before I change it with the other one. Second, I am still undecided on the wheel - I kinda feel that it could have been made a bit grippier maybe by doubling the number of bumps and keeping them a bit less raised - still a bit early to decide but the other buttons can handle the same functions, so it's not really necessary to use it.
Finally, no pitch error - in fact the pitch is so on point that the rockboxed X3 with the pitch error fixed sounds a bit off in comparison. The hype will be coming soon coz the X10's sq is so good that it doesn't matter if there are UI issues and no more updates.
Let me think of reasons I shouldn't get it. Damn, having problems with that. Ok, here we go:
- I already have the X3. Surely the X10 can't sound that much better??
- there is no balanced output. Surely that is important for me (although I've never heard balanced before)???
- it doesn't stream Tidal. Well, I suppose that might be a bit much to ask in a <$200 dap lol
I have one on the way courtesy of Aune, lets see how it stacks up
Word. Thing is a damn beast, SQ to price ration is just bonkers.
i went in with a code of WFYVOR...and saw a price of usd138.17
( didnt complete the purchase cos my email activation didnt come thru...so i hesitated..??)
Anyone made a purchase thru TomTop??
I made mine thru them. The product is out of stock so according to them they will receive them in one week. I paid mine 119 euros(127dollars) and I used a Cashback site which should reimburse 7 percent. Anyways I just hope they don't take more than a week to shipi went in with a code of WFYVOR...and saw a price of usd138.17

WOW.... that is an awesome deal.
but lack of EQ is making me hesitate most!
I dun play with EQ...jus fatalistic..
Or tweak the rest of the soundchain or pads or foams or rubbers or earwax
The Hype is strong with this one.
I hope they won't take as long for this productI bought my X3 from TomTom. It took over 2 months to get to me, but I can't blame them for that. I was in discussions and they were going to refund me, so I think they're good. But shipping from China to Canada... :eek:
Yes, earwax is wonderful for unanticipated sound tweaks!
Way too strong lol
