yeah it’s one of their high end walkmans

cool

if my ipod ever shits the bed i'll probably get one

though zune for the memes would be nice

the deal with the sony players is you get a player that’s designed to play audio and nothing else. other companies have shit like streaming and wifi connection or whatever, sony doesn’t do that shit

they built their own OS from the ground up for it, so it’s stable and smooth. everyone else uses like android which is fucking laggy as hell

how much memory?

and does it play FLAC

mine is 128 internal with SD slot

it plays basically every audio format

that's cool

i bought my ipod for $2 at the thrift store

so it's exceeded my expectations

the high end audio player market is permanently ruined by A&K

everything is overpriced to fuck

what is A&K?

astell and kern

ahhh

gook company that makes retarded looking audio players that sound like ass and cost like $3000

heard of em

but not familiar with the product

this is their current flagship model, it costs 3.5k

all of their products look like this, sharp metallic edges

it looks so gooky

Can't beat American engineering

i haven’t heard this one yet but i heard their previous flagship and it sounds so sterile

it’s boring boomer trash

do they use their own DAC?

or just some stock chink shit

they use AKM chips i think

most companies use chips from off the shelf

sony is one of the few that doesn’t actually

do you know if any modern ones use the wolfson?

cos my ipod is the only ipod that uses it

nah it’s all AKM and ESS chips these days

no one uses anything else

lame

the DAC in this ipod is so good, it sounds 3 dimensional

send me the best screencaps, memes, moments, and videos from this server because im high and am about to make our anime OP

if you like that kind of 3D-esque soundstage then you’d really like the sony stuff

the way it presents sound is really holographic
