Best Music Player

Please help me Jow Forums. I just found out that I’m going to be laid up in the hospital for a while. I really need music player. I’ve seen you post great threads about this subject in the past so I value your advice.

Here’s my only requirements:
>Expandable storage up to 256
>Great battery life
>Small
>Not Apple

That’s basically it. I normally wouldn’t do this but I’m desperate

I like my Cowon Plenue D. It's not as small as the Clip series, but it's pretty tiny and has god-tier battery life.

Had a Sansa clip and randomly died after a few months. Was pretty happy with it before that, though.

Get well soon OP

Clip zip
Or ipod classic v6 rockboxed

xduoo x3. can take two 200GB SD cards, very small, supports rockbox.

battery life is okay if you buy one that was manufactured after 2016, should last around 10 hours. older models had a 1500mah battery, newer ones have 2000mah.

~$110

feel better OP! sending you good chakras.

also, i am just hijacking this thread for a second. if i were to add:
>Bluetooth
>a comfortable UI
what would people here recommend?

If I bought an 5th gen ipod classic, could I install rockbox and a 128gb SD card and have it still be somewhat modern?
I want a dedicated music player and not have to use my phone.

I think you can, I saw a guide showing how you could mod one by replacing a broken HDD unit and swapping it with a SD card with the help of some chinkshit.
I've thought about making a powerful iPod mod type of deal but I already have a Clip Zip.

Not aesthetic enough.

Had a Cowon J3 for many years until it finally broke. Mostly great. Currenly have a fiio x1... Its okay, but has shit battery life compared to my old J3.

I like clip+ better, but clips are still the best music players after all these years

My clip+ oled screen finally died after 7 years so I installed the rockbox voice files and now it speaks to me while I navigate. Fucking incredible.

One of those $40 chinkshit

Sony A25

Why can't the multi trillion technology industry get music playback right?

Why is ther still no fucking system wide parametric equalizers and crossfeed on android?

What the fuck am I supposed to do when my 5 year old sansa clip dies?

see

>2 ohm output impedance
Get this shit out of here.

>owns dirty chinkshit player
>calls glorious player shit

If I wanted a DAP with a touchscreen and shitty hardware I'd use a phone.

All Piio products are shit.

Care to explain why it's shit? It drives 99% of headphones on the market

thoughts on the napster pirate player? just got one today for free

The audio hardware is among the best in chinkshit, but the software is just as bad as anything else.

Fiio X5

whats the difference between a sony nw-a20 and a nw-a25????

Just use your phone

The dac's in phones are good enough for earbuds so just use your phone

Due to Clip+ not being manufactured anymore and prices are sky high, I bought an X3 Xduoo. Its pretty good. Sturdy, long battery life and most importantly can have rockbox.
It's also got 2 SD card slots.

nw a45. you can get 20-30 hours on battery. i haven't tested this myself though.
they're the samething

ooooh, that one looks good. thanks!

whats the pro/cons of using a music player vs just using your smartphone?

Get the cheapest Ruizu player.
Worked for me up until I burned it when I traveled to Japan.

I have a Sansa Clip Sport, and it fucks up my tags on a frequent basis. Anyone else have this problem?

i know that you are a normalfag and have a girlfriend and you should kill yourself for being an ironic weeb and posting anzu
