usb dac like x3, usb otg like current android connection structure

lu register SG so lu in SG list lu not malaysian in his view hha
i remember something like USD350

I'm thinking Joe might ask all the SG to do the review in a group, as majority resides within SG, so they can run reviews in a group. The list really makes SG applicants look like a group, like Team Tokyo, a team.

SG reviewers really populated the SEA group

Review not yet done?

just arrived for demo 

wuuhuu.. can you post pic for size comparison? it seems quite bulky.. can put side by side with iphone? wanna see

nice player, it looks quite similar to the old x3 ...
but nevermind, interested to read the reviews from you soon...

Wuhuu are you my clone? The line up is exactly as was mine.. X3, ipod classic and I also using Sony smartphone (XZU).. I just haven't put my hands on x5 only yet. Lol.

Eagerly waiting for your reviews guys

XZ1 Msia price most likely btw RM2200-RM2800. Would that be ok?

who need lineout if the internal amp is really very good as what Sony claimed... to me, the whole point of getting an audiophile grade DAP is to avoid clinging another bulky external amp, to be ultra portable.. thus why i sold off my X3, due to i still use an amp with it.. do you need more than 128gb storage? wow, my music library is less than 100gb only (not includes the crap mp3s la)

aiya, doesn't make sense la if SQ like the XZ phones.. my XZU sounds not good leh.. for a DAP priced almost RM3k, don't tell me the SQ is just mediocre, Sony!.. 

will have to auditioned it first see how

ya ya, wonder where can find a loaner unit 

yes, IINM ZX1 got line out.

When this launches in March/April I guess stocks would be very limited considering all the hype and anticipation the consumer mass are having now.

Normally which LYN seller would bring in FiiO products first? Planning to pay a deposit first to secure my unit. Or am I being paranoid about the whole limited X5 units thingy?

Honestly speaking most of the the head-fiers are very biased towards AK due to their pricing. So best if you decide for yourselves
There are a few who said the F886 is sonically similar to ZX1, so go figure. I've tested the F886, and i'm sure you can too if you visit some Sony Centres. And to me there wasn't anything special in the SQ. Mind you this was in a shopping mall using their stock sample songs, so my impression doesn't count. Would be glad to try it again with my own stuffs in a quieter environment. However the UI is very very nice, that is the one thing which was quite tempting =P

*Most have commented on the weak amp in ZX1, so if you're planning to drive harder to drive cans, prepare to get an amp.

Btw, with Wifi capability internal storage isn't much of an issue if you have apps/devices which allows you remote streaming from home. (providing you have wifi)
This gives you almost unlimited storage depending on how many hard disks you have =D
