My all-time favourite is probably the original iPod shuffle. Small, sturdy as hell, and cheap enough that I won't lose sleep if it dies. Easy navigation and overall good sound are plusses. Background...

Ah yes, that quote! I still believe that. Mainly however, I was speaking of HiSound's horrible products. The DX100 is certainly a contrasting player to HiSound's audiophile mulch, but its ethos is...

Every Sony player I've tested (I own three) test similarly, obviously with too high output Ω, often worse even than the other audiophile pinup, Cowon players.

I've not done RMAA on it yet, but I'd assume (from listening) that it performs pretty well. I'd love to see some other RMAA results, too. I'll be using (as always) my earsonics SM2 which I find drops...
