even though i've read many good things about sound quality with the cowon X7 and J3 players one post got me curious
***" you should probably look for a audiophile portable music player with a proper line-out and even a digital out (for use with a portable DAC), not a Cowon. " ***
Now what am I missing here. Is there a new level of even better quality sound to be had that is kept secret from me ? Can anyone advise what might be being spoken about here ? What type of portable audio has this function and would it be any better than FLAC / Cowon capabilities ? If the only answer is a £1000 quid portable player then it's a no from me but I am now curious as to what other options I might have. Would this be a portable CD / DAC player or the like or could it be a digital player but with special hi fi outputs ?
