what do the budget iem review sites say

my fucking iPod video dun goofd

Any good chink dap?
possibly with a color screen

budget?

>dap
>color screen
why

either go full chink and just get some ruizu trash, or actual spend good money for a hizids AP200 or Sony NW-A45 or some shit

or buy another used ipod

find an old OG ipod and rockbox it

or fiio x1

or a sansa clip if you can find one

whelp, those cost quite a bit

My original idea was to replace the motherboard since a transistor/regulator blowed, but the mobos are mostly of 30GB iPods (those with the not-so-good DAC and lower ram) and they cost ~50€ alone

how big is the regulator?

can you replace it yourself?

I mean, yes, i have a hot air soldering station but there are no markings on it whatsoever
And now it has this humongus burnt pimple on it so nope

i'm not even sure this is the only component that failed

strange thing is it boots, but HDD won't spin, and it cannot read from the CF adapter

sounds like voltage isn't regulated :^)

probs hdd requires the jump to 5v

oh well

This is the component (from a stock photo)

tiny

ye

@Mr.Foxhead why dont you just replace the part?

I could try if I only knew what part is

as I explained before, there is no writings on it

and I have an hot air soldering station so not an issue for me, if I only knew what the exact part is

BTW, I'm now pondering on just going the easyest route, and buying a BENJIE T6 and this little guy for the dock https://www.ebay.it/itm/Bluetooth-A2DP-Ricevitore-musicale-ADATTATORE-PER-IPOD-IPHONE-30-PIN-DOCK/292335520930?hash=item44108e0ca2:m:myeWL1CQ3G5485MZP3hlYiw

The rocker is just 50€ on Amazun

Should I bite?

@Windatica @HEKTIK @Kaytee

prob fakes

or your ears have been too used to super V sound signature that they're too far gone

wat

I remember this song when those car bass videos were going around with the chicks hair going all crazy from the vibrations

man eartips really do matter

thought meizu ep52 had shitty sound and then changed memory foam tips to spinfits

and now it's quite better

wish they weren't that fucking expensive tho

yeah tips can change sound massively

Pls respond
