I had a Cowon J3, great quality (I had left a glowing review above OVER THE TOP) but too fragile two exchanges in 8 months, and total lack of power to the point that I had bought a mini amplifier to listen on HP car Here none of this a crazy power, impossible to listen with headphones to the headphone 40 saturates so no need to INCREASE the sound with the equalizer articficiellement even with the sound that the bass is flat A little bigger than the D3 but like in the pocket with the settings on top to stop, sleep and adjusting the usable volume even with locked screen But the Top of the Top is still the best sound J3 (compared to same records) even better definition and musical clarity Used only for music but for video is even better because the screen is significantly larger and better suited to images Autonomy 110 hours of music and 600 hours of standby time, more production Cowon J3 has been stopped, attention to parts for repairs or if it fails it'll be hard to beat !!! and best of all it is cheaper !!! Listening with headphones Sennheiser in-ear IE 80 (see review above "THE BOMB") for walks in the forest even been to not sweat with normal headphones makes you warm the ears Koss Porta Pro including, j 'have one, today high quality helmet is completely outdated, the only changes in the Porta Pro was the Sporta Pro but nothing has been done regarding to the listening quality)
