Must try those Korea and China Hifi Player brand is sound very very like real live concert/ studios mastering quality sound/ HiFi loudspeaker system sound. Analog 3D music realistic pure organic nature neutral lifely human by hardware performance and original file information.

Not those digital computer generated DSP digital signal processing fake inorganic robot muddy veiled coloured (MSG) heavy distorted bass.

i don't really like bringing along a brick with me, of which i find many high end DAP makers miss in their design decisions.
it costs too much and i wouldn't appreciate the sound anyway since i'm busy walking around.
and since these things are so big, i can't put them in my jeans. if i need to put them in my bag, then i can't change tracks, volume, etc.
so i just rely on my iTouch or M8

I used to have one of Sony's walkman USB music players(2GB) back in mid 2000s. Back then, cheap phones dont yet have gigabytes worth of storage.

Nowadays I only depend on my phone.

year 2015, ppl still buy mp3 player bcoz they want a small and tiny mp3 player for jogging or workout
other than that, the rest are just audiophiles
ppl who dont buy mp3 player at all are those who think their phone served them with a decent mp3 player

Yes, ever since I rediscovered my passion for music.

Now I'm working mostly at desk job and listening to music. If i'm doing that for long periods a day, why don't I make the best of it? I'm using Sony F886 and XBA-A1 earphone. Beginner audiophile only, but who knows in the future when I have more money.. biggrin.gif

Also, I've now started buying more 2nd hand CDs and rip to flac for future safekeeping, in case iI upgrade my gear in the future..
I only download songs if it's just one song from an album or almost impossible to get the CD.
