Appreciate the suggestions for Roon and MusicBee. I did check them out, but they seem a bit heavy for what I'm trying to e.g. a lot of features I have no plan on using. I'm looking for a standalone solution, lightweight, that only does tagging and organization; not really looking for something...

Looking to organize my extensive digital music library; what's the best all in one software solution out there (paid or free) that does the following: - Tracks down and updates music tracks and albums with album art - Tracks down, edits, manages and updates music tracks and album metadata/tags...

Ah, okay, thank you for that info! Did you happen to have any thoughts regarding my previous post about improving or expanding the sound quality and functionality of the DP-X1 with a companion portable device?

Appreciate your insight and recommendations! I own the DP-X1A, and I find it a little bizarre regarding Onkyo’s naming conventions as their own website has no mention of the B-version. So weird. Anyway, I checked my DP-1XA for its Android version, and it’s running v5.1.1 and ran the updater (no...

@DBaldock9, what are the differences between the DP-X1A and DP-X1B? I wasn’t even aware that Onkyo released a DP-X1B. In your opinion, what would be the DP-1XA equivalent in today’s market? And what would be the logical upgrade to the DP-X1A?

Really appreciate the insight on the Shanling! I hadn’t really considered it (yet) as there are so many DAP options to choose from that it’s overwhelming. That said, there are some things that I really do not like about DAPs, and that is the Android OS. It seems more often than not that that is...

I currently own an Onkyo DP-X1A digital audio player, and I'm looking to upgrade it as the battery isn't holding much of a charge anymore and the hardware is definitely showing its age. 1) Is there a current portable DAP on the market today that would be considered the DP-X1A's equal? 2) What...

Anyone?

The venerable DP-X1A was released almost five years ago; is the Onkyo DP-1XA still a viable DAP in 2021, or has it been eclipsed by DAPs that do it better for less? And if there are cheaper DAPs that do it better than the DP-X1A, what are some examples?

Anyone?

Yes, it’s true. I’ve had the DP-1XA for some time now, and frankly, I don’t enjoy using it. Maybe it’s too “high speed” for me, maybe it’s the finicky Android OS and GUI, but when I’m on the road, I’m finding myself leaving this DAP at home more often than not. A travesty, you say? Perhaps. At...

I bought an Onkyo DP-X1A in August of last year, and after several months of use, I can say that I am not really fond of it. That said, I am looking to replace it with something else. 1) What would be a comparable digital audio player to the Onkyo DP-X1A? 2) What would be the logical step up...

Other than the Dunu, New Primacy and anything by Campfire Audio, what are other well executed V-shaped IEMs that you like? Looking for in ear comfort, great bass response, highs that are refined, accurate and not too sibilant.

So, a quick update regarding finding a replacement of my TF10's. I tried out the iBasso IT01, and really loved the gobs of bass that it threw out, but found the highs to be much too sibilant and unrefined for me. The TF10's are head and shoulders above the IT01 in that regard, but the TF10 don't...

Really no budget; it's open ended. Simply looking for a device similar to the E17K which can alter the bass and treble incrementally.

I recently purchased an E17K Alpen 2 for use with my Onkyo DP-X1A DAP and have a couple of questions. 1) What is the latest firmware version for the E17K? The version on my device is E17KV01. Is this the most current version? 2) While listening to music via the AUX input on the E17K with my...

I'm looking to sell a pair of UE TripleFi 10 IEMs that are brand new in the box, never opened, never used. What would be a good asking price to list them at? I did check eBay and the prices seem to fluctuate quite a bit. Was hoping the good folks here at HeadFi would be able to provide some...

Does anyone know of any alternatives to the E17K Alpen 2 by FiiO? Looking to see what other products exist on the market that can go head to head with the E17K. If you're not familiar with the E17K, link to product info is below: http://www.fiio.net/en/products/38

Thanks for the link! Are there any other solutions similar to the Alpen 2 on the market?

I own an Onkyo DP-X1A, and really enjoy the native music app that comes with it (Onkyo Music) and wish to stick with it. However, this app does not include bass boost or treble adjustments, or an option to adjust reverb and surround. Is there a portable solution that will allow me to fine tune...

So, what I have been able to gather regarding the Orion and Polaris, is that the Orion is a reference-type IEM, flat and uncolored sound, while the Polaris has much more energy and impact, utilizing a V-shaped sound. That said, are the TF10 considered a "reference" IEM like the Orion, or do they...

1) Is Toneboosters available for use with Android devices using the 5.1 OS? 2) Does Toneboosters allow you to adjust the bass, tone, treble, virtualization of your audio/music?

Appreciate the input, serman. I think I will pick up a pair of IT01 and give them a run. Do you have additional recommendations to replace the TF10, even if they might be more expensive than the IT01?

So, I reached out to the developer of USB Audio Player Pro and I was told that bass boost, tone/treble and virtualization is not supported in the app. That being said, is there an app that gives you these features but works in conjunction with Android-based music player apps like the Onkyo Music...

Thanks so much for the recommendation. I’m curious though, how does a single driver IEM best a multi-driver like the TF10? Shouldn’t having multiple drivers with crossover like the TF10 perform better sonically than the IT01? I guess I’m also a little confused when many of the reviews I read of...
