What do I get? A structurally solid, highly visual and sound very high quality .... None Player Multimedia Player with Flashlight and pedometer ...;) I am far from audiophile, but hear passionate about music. I have a good investment in the medium price range, but not constantly swap out the cable ...;) This player is fantastic if you like to listen to music and do not just want to be casually sprinkled. There are no playlists, no Wifi, Bluetooth and other features, it is just music ... Good recordings sound superb, poor are exposed. It's amazing that for relatively little money so a sound is possible. I have heard the big brothers (X3 and X5) and the sound better, clear .... But: the financial effort I'd put in very good Kh. I use the re-400 of Hifiman. They seem to fit well for an entry-level device, but I miss the really high-priced compared to Kh. For a total of approximately 180.00 you get an idea of how music can sound. In order to significantly increase, so you must invest at least double. And to make it clear: you can set audiophile combos for a lot more money, which are superior. In the Price area, which I address here, there is certainly no alternative. Unbelievable for the price .... The only drawback: There are no bookmarks are possible, but older men how I like to listen to audio books and would like to listen to music between times, without noticing where she left off ..... why only 4 stars.
Addendum: To fill the SD card, you can also connect the player directly to the Mac, and the card remains in the X1. Detected problems .... And much less hassle.
Addendum dated 23.10.14: Firmware update, including playlists are now possible.
Addendum of 1:03:15: I could not resist the temptation and I've now got to the Audio Technica ATH M-50x .... divine combination ...;)
