Got mine today... had my thoughts if it could replace my now defunct Pono...
...well the circuitry might not be in the same league but I am loving the X3.
Supports all my HD music, the sound quality is good enough that I can barely feel any difference with the pono and it can drive my Fostex mk IIIs!
I love the fact that it has actual physical tactile controls! No more getting the player out activating the screen in mid sunlight and fumbling with touch controls, no more finger prints on the screen also.
Being almost forty the design and simplicity reminds me of the time when mp3 players were curious gadgets not yet reaching maturity and that is one of the things I have liked the most.
Peter Gabriel, Tori Amos, Pink floyd, Oasis... they all sound amazing, yes I would recommend it to a pal.
A happy customer.
Though it's tiny, it manages to power even high ohm headsets with amazing accuracy. It works great with the drop usb-c to usb-c and my Phillips shp-9600. Soon enough I'll be using the Akoustyx...
I have an external amplifier with no integrated DAC and I only have an xduo xa10 as a dac/amp can I use the xduo xa10 as a dac only with an external amplifier?
So I bought the HD6xx a few weeks back and when I finally got the packages i got some Noir 99. ever happened to any of u guys and how did it get resolved
