I can make folders, and I add .flac and only .flac files to HiFiMAN. I take out the .cue, .jpg, and all the other non-flac files from the folder and transfer it to the SDHC card. HiFiMAN does not seem to have a problem with them so far. Played a couple of 24bit files, and they worked fine.
I have used mp3 files without any other files in the folder and I have had no problem.
I have not tried .ogg files, and probably will not.
It seems that the player likes folder to contain songs only. That's not much of a problem.
Also tried it as a USB DAC. Sounds great.
Like I said before, I probably have 16 bit ears, so I will probably only use 16bit files.
I may have time for a more serious listen this weekend.
I believe it sounds better than my Marantz 67se, so I am very happy with it.
Also the specs says the headphone out is 30 omes (probably spelled that wrong, I suck at spelling), but the HiFiMAN seems to drive my Senn hd555 very well, and it also seems to drive my Senn hd600 phones loud enough that the music is enjoyable.
I plan to try the HiFiMAN with my headphone amp to see what difference it makes. I have a little country III and I really like the way it sounds. It will be nice to see how they sound together.
Now I just have to make a really quite music server and use my HiFiMAN as my DAC at home. That would be the preferred method of listening because I don't want anything to happen to it.
I guess I could figure out how to get a coxial out from the computer.
Anyone know of a really quiet little computer that can run a USB external hard drive, PM me because I would really like that as my final setup.
Again my 2 cents for whatever it is worth.

Hopefully, some of lucky owners can comment on that. |
