  1. XTZ Headphone Divine

    4.00 star(s)
    Warning, Grumpy guy in ponyland!    Please don't misread my reviews simply because I'm not your usual shoe shiner singing along the “everything is awesome” Lego song. the review is done so that people can know what to expect, and see if the pros&cons make it worth it for them as it does for me. I'm actually making very few reviews compared to the stuff I own/demo, so me writing anything at all is already my seal of approval.         Why get this BT headphone? I'm a wire guy, I would never get a wireless mouse or keyboard(old school...
  2. FiiO X1 Ultraportable Hi-Res DAP

    4.00 star(s)
        edit: January 2016, the X1 is at the time on firmware V1.6, I've been using it for some time now, and it is again a great improvement. no more of what I called FIIO's bug, now after coming back to the "now playing" song from any menu, the "back" button takes us to the list of songs for that album like any other DAP would do. it's a drastic and very significant improvement. added to this the firmware got rid of the 3 thousand something song limit it could scan(was still accessible when browsing by folder though). also the wheel works way better...
  3. Sony Walkman NWZ-A10

    help!! I'm fallling!!!!!!!(photoshop lvl expert)     For any Sony DAPs, the letter goes for a kind/category of DAP. The first numbers for the model and the last number is always for the onboard memory. And then you might have some letter again for the color of your Walkman. So you don't want a sony A10, you want to get a Sony A15 with 16gig, A16 with 32giga, or A17 with 64giga. I mention it because I've been asked twice in a week.         A10 series: A few questions might find an answer in the online help, but don't expect any deep...
  4. Leckerton Audio UHA760

    4.50 star(s)
             I've been ranting too much so I've put every time I slipped too far out off topic into quotes. That way you can pass it all and just read a real review if you don't want to be bothered by some #my-life kind of content ^_^. and there is a short +/- list at the end if you really just want answers.     Obviously we don't all seek an amp for the same reasons so your perfect amp will not be mine:   What I want from a portable amp, by order of priority: 1/ To get under 1ohm impedance output to avoid messing with the sound of my...
  5. FitEar TO GO! 334

    4.00 star(s)
        Package: - 3 Pairs of silicone tips - Cleaning Tool - Cable Clip - Pouch - Box - Pelican1010 - Carabiner manufacturing: it's a handmade tank! Everything in the 334 feels of strength, the acrylic shell is thick and makes my jh13 look fragile. The IEM connectors are almost identical to what you have on a HD650. For me, this is a good choice because it avoids the usual fragile metal pins we get on most customs. I bend these rods on my jh13 regularly and I'm always afraid of the day when one will remain stuck in the IEM. one pin is...
  6. FitEar To Go! Parterre

    4.00 star(s)
                                                                                                  Disclaimer: Mr Suyama (FitEar) agreed to lend me a pair of To Go! Parterre and 334. The purpose was to give a chance for a maximum of my French fellows from tellementnomade.com to have a try at this now pretty famous brand. We are indeed very glad to have a go at them. I'm not getting paid nor selling anything. In fact Fitear asked nothing of me, how confident is that! So before they leave me for one of the big cities in...
  7. Cowon iAUDIO 10 / i10 Portable Media Players (32GB) - Black

    3.00 star(s)
    Summary at the end for lazy peeps.   User interface and the frightening secrets behind the i10:   The navigation tree has obviously been made by secret terrorist cells who could never contact each others. The brain whose cover job is designer at cowon, came up with the idea of "one action on each corner of the screen" on a non touch sensitive screen (when you re that messed up you get to be the boss with terrorists) He also came up with the multi award winning design (true story) that makes sure you will drop it more than a wiimote on a...
