Topic: Neil Young's high resolution player

Looks interesting. Seems to be a portable device that can play FLAC and other high-resolution devices, but may be less expensive than existing players?

Re: Neil Young's high resolution player

Before buying such a player you would be advised to read this: http://people.xiph.org/~xiphmont/demo/neil-young.html
Also, there are already (cheaper) players which can play flac, e.g. Fiio X3.

Re: Neil Young's high resolution player

I agree. I admire Neil Young for his music but this is, IMHO,  pure marketing business.
Well at least, it points to the poor quality of mp3, that's a good thing.

Re: Neil Young's high resolution player

I had not read about the Fiio X3. Looks good. With a micro card added, it can hold 128GB. Not sure how many 3 minute songs that would be, but enough for a few hours of playing, doubtless. Thanks. Disappointed if Neil Young is just reinventing this wheel.
