Recently i see a lot of reproductors like FiiOX1 or Astell&Kern and i want to know if this is a meme or they got a real good sound.
Sansa clip still be the King? those new warriors deserve a place in the kingdom?
I got my Ruizu X02 in the mail yesterday. It can play my flac and ogg files fine and they sound great with my friends studio headphones. They were only $20 too

so, if i buy chink-tier like Ruizu or xduoo i will got the same? only headphones are important in this theme?

Ive never used the FiioX1 but i used to have the Sansa Clip before it broke. Audio Quaility and buid wise they,are very same. But since UI is complete dogshit and counterintuitive. Since the FiioX1 is a bit more expensive it is slightly better like ui and it has a metal frame. But for $20 the sound quality is pretty good. I get like 60 or so hours on mine

DACs have been perfect for so long that they've become cheap as pennies. Audio is a solved problem, technologically. Audiophiles like to pretend otherwise.

All chinkshit have terrible UI.
Gookshit and nipshit has better UI.
Sony is up there.

DACs are technically cheap, but DAPs are not.
It takes resources to design a good one.
You could get a top tier DAC or opamp for <$20.

such as?

>$20
last time I checked the ruizus were like 12 bucks wtf. fucking chinks
also the UI is shit

CS4398 is somewhere around $2 - $7
Muses 01 is $15 - $17
The cost is often somewhere else, not these parts.
As someone who bought an x1 I'd say these are a waste of time for most people.

Sony makes the worst menus. Have you ever used any of their cameras?
