Try spend a bit more for decent in-ears.. I would like to recommend Sony N3 and Echobox X1 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

if your earpieces' cables are replaceable, replace it w/ the ones w/ TRRS plug.. then, and only then, you will get the benefit. If they are not, buy new ones that are

Do not bother yourself w/ it.. It is not the way it work. You may get compatibility from 3.5 TRRS to TRS, but no benefit at all from the vice versa

Not bad for a bluetooth earphone. Sound quality is a bit higher than average and quite comfortable to use for hours. Isolation is the best part here. Sadly, either the module or the codec in the unit or in iPhone SE are lame. When the phone is set to mono, the sounds are distorted. It is clearly...

would you please tell us, James, is this the same earbuds w/ the one bundled to M3 player? If it is not, what are the differences (except the colour)? Thank you

It is like a musical script read by a singer.. It might be written by a caligrapher or a toddler. It might be written on a glossy paper or dirty rug. No matter how bad the lyrics and notes written, how dirty the paper they were written on, as long as the messages are the same and are readable...

On some limited cases, like sony walkman nw-zx2, I believe that it plays hi-res up to 192/24 through its native player and not through 3rd party players from play store. So, I assume (I do not have any knowledge of android programming) the native player can bypass the android's src and directly...

I can see clearly now the ******** of "hi-res support".. I have had suspiciousness that all Mobile Phones claiming hi-res are actually downsampling the digital info before translating them into the analog ones. The interesting part is that people who claimed themselves audiophiles and bought the...

Just to make clear, if I play 192000 file.. What does happen if I set to device native and to variable rate? Sent from my E5803 using Tapatalk

Davy, sorry if this had been asked, what is the meaning of device native and variable rate in android sample rate? Whenever I use the device native, it shows 48.000 max and 96.000 when I use variable rate.. Thank you 4 your response Sent from my E5803 using Tapatalk

Another player from the Korean.. Interesting! But, I cannot attach the pictures nor the link for now. Anyone can help me? Please share any info regarding this player. Thank you Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk

Same here.. then Rockbox Utility was terminated right before installing the Rockbox firmware. But, I tried to installed it manually (using the generic Rockbox Utility) and it worked! The problem is musics synced from iTunes cannot be seen/browsed. They can be listed through the Database, but the...

Woa, I never saw this before.. Would you please provide me w/ step-by-step installation guide? Thank you

After reading all of discussions about Onkyo HF Player plays hi-res on ZX2, I am still not convinced that the analog sounds produced were direct converts from those hi res info.. My suspicion is that the player has capability to downsample (just like Neutron) the hi res info to be played on ZX2...

Rockboxed, my Classic 7th gen plays hi-res (up to 192/24, the highest I have) now. I am wondering, what is the DAC? Are those hi-res signal translated directly to analog sound (w/o any downsampling or whatsoever)?

If you have installed 3rd party player(s), do you realize that you can play 2 different tunes simultaneously (one via the player & the other via WALKMAN)? Proving that sony made exclusive access to hardware for its proprietary WALKMAN player Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

The v1.00.0018 have smoother UI than the v1.00.0009..

Do you know that there are several build numbers around, 1.00.0009, 1.00.0018, & 1.01.**** (afaik)? Mine is the 1st one out of the box w/ 500**** serial. The 2nd one are those out of the box w/ 501**** serial. And, the last one are those from Japan (after update?). The thing is, Sony has not...

where to download the v1.01 firmware?

How to charge w/ off condition?

How about your ears? They would taught the most expensive one! Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

The setting need to be turned on.. Go to Settings/Sound/AVLS. You will never be able to crank the volume "all the way up for as long as you like" anymore, yet w/o the "stupid.. warning pop-up" Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

I get seperate L/R channel w/ HiFiMAN RE-600.. The right channel is no longer muted like when connected to non-balanced-suppored players. And I am sure it is stereo, not dual mono, because my test track confirmed it. Is it a true balanced setting? I do not know. That will be the question of the...
