I concur, the HLSX-BK50 is a great match for the X3 given its (slightly bright) signature.
Excellent details without being too clinical, couple that with spacious soundstage and good lows. And paint it with the smoothness of midrange and behave treble, thats what the XDUUO X3
I got the XDuoo X3 a few weeks back, and as mentioned in the post above, there are really no grips of the sound given the price. I came from using the Red Wine Audio iMod, which was supposed to e a great sounding DAP back in the day, but I can clearly tell the difference in the two the second I heard the X3.
Interesting. I switched to the X3 from the same iPod as you, I believe. The Video 5.5 Gen, which I Rockboxed. I didn't hear about the Red Wine mod until after Vinnie quit offering it. I considered attempting the mod myself until I got the X3, and now I feel like the iPod is just obsolete. Whenever i switch back, I hear more warmth, but at the cost of clarity. To me, the iPod sounds muddy and very one-dimensional in comparison. How would you compare the two?
How much is the xduoo x10
Just bought the X3 off Gearbeast Cheap right now! Only $77USD delivered.
Got a link for that deal?
Mine is based off of memory, as i bought my X3 after the iMod died, but the difference is pretty clear. The clarity with the X3 was just a step above. I don't recall that warmth (in the positive sense) from the iMod, I just felt that it was muddier and not as clear, and the bass impact wasn't as strong and powerful as the X3.
I have always had the iPod G4, and I can't tell much of a difference between the iPod G4 and the RWA iMod 5.5. I felt the mod didn't offer as much as I thought.
with the x3 rockboxed is the FM radio works? and can you create a playlist like in windows media and be read by it? or any other program that can create a playlist be read by rockbox?
Found this on google myself: XDUX3RU
Ends up being $72.99
Thank you!
What's the latest on the pitch issues with the X3 that I see in early posts on this thread? Have those been fixed? I tried searching the thread but couldn't find a definitive answer.
