Customer reviews
What listeners say about sound, fit and everyday use.
Sound character: musical, engaging. The vocals are larger than average, melodic, with an emphasis on female voices.
Extended vocal notes are especially beautiful.
There's a slight emphasis in the upper mids/lower treble.
Articulation could be a little clearer, but it's important to remember that this isn't a $1,500 high-end device.
For the price, everything here is quite adequate.
The soundstage is of average proportions, with the listener positioned in the first third of the room.
The soundstage is similar to that of mature audio players; there are no gaps or unfilled areas; the image is dense throughout, with good visualization.
The highs are typical of true sabra—cymbal tails are pulled slightly closer to the foreground, which adds a livelier touch to the high frequencies.
The detail in subtle sounds is richer than, for example, on the Tempotec V3, and the soundstage itself is denser and more atmospheric in this range. All sorts of bells, triangles, and tambourines don't get lost among the variety of other instruments.
The brilliant's color is golden and soft.
The midrange is quite active and has the necessary density.
The acoustic guitar sounds thick with a slight downward slope.
The saxophone is very mature and serious.
The piano is naturalistic and tactile, with a clear presence.
The double bass is good, but could be a little tighter.
The low frequencies can reach very deep infrabass.
Texture and relief are present; even full-size dynamic headphones don't lose their drive when switching from a high-end stationary DAC amp to this little one.
Even the Tempotec V3 would be more primitive in the low end.
The tactile quality of the subbass is present in modern orchestral pieces.
Nu-metal and doom aren't this player's strong point, but it sounds good, just good and moderately meaty.
Heavy metal sounds excellent, even euphoric when listening to glam bands from the 80s and 90s.
Electronic music has a certain charm, almost trance-like.
I'd especially note the player's affinity for music from the 80s-2000s; music from that era sounds especially charming on it.
Yes, it may be a super-compact budget audio player, but it has something that makes listening to music interesting and, most importantly, enjoyable!
This little thing has a special audio soul.
It's one of the best digital audio player I've owned
Es increíble lo versátil que es este DAP, excelente sonido, potencia y batería. No es perfecto su sistema operativo, sin embargo lo recomiendo 100% Es muy portátil, cómodo de usar, bonito. Al a funda le falta un clip para cinturones pero es suave al tacto, fácil de poner y de quitar. Excelente producto.
