Will there be any difference if I replace my old galaxy s2 for a fiio x1 as my music player?

Will there be any difference if I replace my old galaxy s2 for a fiio x1 as my music player?

technically yes, X1 has better DAC and Amp, and its cpu is dedicated just to play music. but difference is subjective, so its really up to your ears. if you really listen to music a lot and on the go, getting a dedicated DAP is the way to go.

yep pikas eardrum sa ako papa buslot gyud, so isa nalng ang functioning, bisan kana mga tube amps maka buslot pud na sa eardrum labi na kusog na kaayo ang volume level.

one example ani kay si Ted Nugent, buslot pud na iya ear drum.

mao gyud na isa sa reason na kung maminaw ko music, minimal ra gyud ako volume, di na kaayo ko palabi pakusog kay sa experience sa ako papa dili lalim...


P.S. ang effect ana dili mana diha diha dayon... pag edad 55 sa ako papa diha pa ni effect after years of abuse.. grabe to ako papa gud bisan matolog naka headphone...

I hope ma aware pud uban dinhi..

murag grabe na dyud ni na abuse if nabungol dyud. sorry bout your dad who just loves to listen to music. kita ani limit lang sa volume, di sad cguro dapat dugayan ug mau ug adlaw-adlawn

Mga brad asa ta ka buy ug asynchronous usb cable designed for DACs? I have a NAD d3020 amp/Dac combo but I'm using a cheap printer cable as of now. I've heard that usb cables sound different and can change the music quality-wise?. By the way, the NAD is connected to a MAC mini. Thanks

Imho boss, the USB cable's quality maka affect ra sa signal noise or interference... Bahin sa sonic improvements, can't tell the difference from my macbook->modi... Try sa classic hi-fi sa ayala, they got some fancy cables there...

[korg17]

USB cables, interconnects, headphone cables all do the same thing, to transfer the signal from A to B. the best cables stay "out of the way", meaning they allow the signal to pass as clean and as pure a possible without noise and inteference, this is where we perceive it as better Sound Quality and Clarity. unfortunately, to achieve this requires better and more expensive materials to keep these imperfections out. different types of materials like silver and copper or gold also exibit differing results.

Has anyone tried ordering anything from egghead audiohub through shipping? I really like the M50s there but have horrible experiences regarding online shopping so you get where I am coming from

I can vouch for them 101%. if you order in the morning, you will get your package delivered the next day.
