Personal/portable music player thread /pmp/
What up /pmp/'s, so we've been having these threads for a while now and I noticed some of you prefer it to be called /dap/ since it's more of a catch-all. Is a vote on this needed or are you guys okay with the name as is?

Oh no!
I'd like to spend $100-300 on a decent dap. Long battery life would be nice. If you guys can recommend a dap/amp setup.
>>61381866
Sony A35 if you don't care too much for sound quality.
If you're willing to go used, there might be more choices available.

4th for /dap/: Dedicated Audio Players
>>61384149
I prefer DAP too, to be honest
Also, what's a good DAP for ~50 bucks?
>>61379454
/dap/

Well, next thread will be /DAP/ i think
Also, there's a way to use my rockboxed 5.5 as an USB DAC?
I can see only it can be used as a keyboard in the options
>>61387375
I think there's USB audio 1.0 support.
Just got my Ruizu X02. It's exactly what I expected for $15. I'm happy with it.
Don't have a microSD card yet, so just using the 8G internal storage for now.
Still waiting for KZ ZS3s.
>>61387466
Yeah, but it seems not working since the dev isn't working on it anymore
Meanwhile, I'm going to build a microUSB to 30 pin to keep in my earphones case along with a short USB cable
>>61387617
Thanks for the idea, Interesting in buying that now as something cheap for bike rides and shit.
I use an old 32gb phone with a 64gb SD card and an extended 6000 battery
works bretty good
It seems that threads with iPods in the OP are dead.
bump
Fiio is getting rid of the clicky hardware scrolling wheel and replacing it with some touch imaginary wheel shit
Any players that still have this feature?
It's probably my favorite thing about my Fiio X3ii and why I keep using it despite the absolute cancer that is the OS
>>61391941
Also, anyone knows why you would need two dacs? is it for the new balanced output that nobody will use anyways?
What's the cheapest shit I could get Rockbox'd?
>>61392029
One for each channel
>>61392036
Probably an ipod mini 1/2g or a 4th gen classic. Around $40 including a new battery. Doubleish that if you want to mod out the old hdd.
>>61387617
Waiting for mine.
I'm also waiting for the release of the Walnut V3.
Then I'll have a beater and something with more sound quality.
>>61392029
I think to offload the work between left and right channel or things like those
Just use your phone lol
any good cases I can get for xduoo x3?
I'm going to order a Benjie T6 (Agptek Rocker) the second I hear about a dev build of Rockbox for it. The hardware supports it, but nothing ready yet.
should i cop one of these bad boys? its 99p + free shipping from china.
>>61392567
or should i spend more and get this for 1.39? this one comes with a usb cable to charge/transfer, but it isn't cat-shaped
pump me daddy
>>61392567
I'd suggest to cop one with the shitty OLED screen for ~2$
Trust me, those screenless ones are a pain in the arse to use, even for something as simple as playing a specific track
Boomp
>>61392634
The cat is gross
Flower square is cute!
Is something called a Clip Sport good?
Friendly reminder that this Cowon has a large HHD inside, can use Rockbox (can play doom) and costs next to nothing.
All Flash based MP4s are overpriced garbage.
>>61394777
But that's not a Cowon you piece of shite
I got a Fiio X3 stacked with an A3. does anybody have recommendations for a good case? even just like a microfiber bag.
>>61394817
Yes it is you uneducated child.
>>61394863
No shit, I thought it was an offbrand chink dap
My apologies
>>61394863
>yes it is you dap
missed opportunity
Just got a Ruizu x26. Everytime I turn it off and back on again I have to re search my card folder for songs. anyway I can get them to stay?
