Hi sifusss.. I've lost my iPod touch 6th gen. Sigh....seeking for a replacement.

Things I'm looking for. I can download and/or stream music online. Any interface would do. Best would be battery can last for more than one day.

Budget is as economic as possible. Currently using fiio ex1 earphones.

Thank you

Android based DAPs should fulfill your requirement for streaming music online (installing apps such as Spotify?), such as

Fiio X7, Sony ZX2, Onkyo DP-X1, Pioneer XDR-100R

But the price are at least of RM2.5k cool.gif

If not, a basic DAP should do your work well.

Besides the above mentioned? WHat are the other budgetted DAP?

Absolutely none in the current market for your budget if you want android based with wifi streaming capabilities.
Maybe Seiun Pro DAP if/when they are out in the market, but might still be more than your budget...
Just use your smart phone and get a Mi powerbank la

you can get android device otg out and buy a dac+amp, so buy a dac amp within your budget and stream from phone

the reason why im asking for an OS based is because, when my phone is at rural area, i can still listen to music without needing connection (e.g. on a highway or rural area)

With OS based, allowed me to do some light browsing when i have connection. If this is the case, any good budgetted DAP that is good for its quality? Ezekiel recommended X3ii. but this is priced at RM7xx.. if i get a ipod 32gb @ Rm979, with iOS, which is more worthy?

Thanks all for your suggestion. Appreciate

Budgeted DAP such as Fiio M3, X1, X3 etc, these are less than RM800

If you dont state your budget here, it is hard for others to recommend hmm.gif

Hello. Thanks for the reply. My budget is 1000 and below, as low as possible. I will be using it for Chinese pop and billboard pop. Not sure if I can get use to an offline dap as compared to my iPod touch. I will be pairing the new dap with my current fiio ex1 iem. Hope to get the best out of this minimal investments.

What I know is no DAP with streaming function under budget of RM1k.

Unless you want to go portable DAC/AMP such as CHord Mojo for stacking with your smartphone, which is bulky if you use it outdoor.

Otherwise you try opt for a used Sony ZX1~which the price can be below RM1k if lucky to find.

In this case. Is it worth to get fiio x1 or fiio x3ii? If just dap, any other good dap? Thanks for the reply and happy cny!!

Add on: comparing with Sony budgetted range of dap. Is ffio x3ii really wortj the investment?

M currently using iPod. Looking for a good dap and a pair of headphones

Currently using fiio ex1 iem with my iPod and axon 7.

Would like to ask if it's an upgrade from iem to over ear headphones (ath mh40x)

If I'm getting a dap, where is the best source to get lossless sounds?

You can try tsdm. www.tsdm.net. It's a chinese forum that people shares hi-res music files. Even 24bit. The downside it that it's all in chinese.

Depends the IEM you use, and depends on your preference. If you use standard apple earbuds, I would suggest upgrade your IEM 1st. In the end it is always:

IEM>Player/amp>Music Files>Cables

cables are the last snake oil you need.

I'm Currently using IEM Fiio EX-1.

Thinking if i should upgrade it? I am more towards clarity, crisp, sharpness, then bass.

I listened to mostly pop musics. Went through the site you shared, most of the musics are from anime right?
