The first dedicated music player I bought was a 15GB third-generation iPod, which I fell in love with.
The experience, besides the novelty, was disappointing.

Throughout the 2000s I experimented with various convergent devices for music playback, including Nokia Communicators (9300, 9500), Windows CE H/PC devices (Jornada 680/720/620LX etc), Windows Mobile (HP iPaq, Casio) and Palm.
PLEXAMP SHUFFLE PORTABLE
During this time, CD recording was starting to become affordable so burning CDs at home for use in a Discman provided a decent portable music experience. I first started using the MP3 format in the mid 90s where encoding a single 128kbps track could take hours. In the 90s, prior to the introduction of the first MP3 player in 1998, I primarily used tape-based Walkmans for music playback. where can i get one of those direct-rip desktop systems that i know exist for minidisc?Īs someone who still uses a Walkman I wanted to chime in and offer my perspective as to why I do so in an age where phones and digital streaming are ubiquitous. i bought one of uBid, of all things, in the early 00's, and i still use it sometimes as a backup recorder in case the computer is moody. Other relevant: i have always loved sony's headphones. i want at least 64gb storage, bluetooth, a usb port, wav/flac, and it doesn't even have to play videos. i don't want apps, streaming, or spotify.
PLEXAMP SHUFFLE ANDROID
that i don't want some insecure android thing attempting to get itself hacked with every random wifi access point. that i'm listening to this while jogging in the rain, say - using sony WF-1000XM4, which i love - over bluetooth. what if they break will i have to overnight parts from japan?īut it's mostly terrifying because i just finished mixing down a track and you're just putting horrible ideas into my head for if i ever have too much time and money.Ī good quantifier, i suppose: it has to play WAV/FLAC. They do have a more consumer friendly MH2 model where you choose from 5 or so pre-sets, and you only have to come in once.Ĭlick to expand.that is terrifying utterly terrifying. I don't think they ever intended for anybody outside the country to go through the whole song and dance. Before the pandemic I would be in Tokyo 2-3 times a year anyways, so it wasn't a lot of extra effort on my part. There's nothing silly - if you want an audio solution that fits you perfectly, and is tuned precisely, you have to be there twice. I waived that by telling them I'd fly back if I found a problem. They usually ask you to pick them up in person as well (so if something is not to your liking, they can take them back and make adjustments). Some tracks of your choice are played and you have a physical EQ thing you can adjust to personal taste. You wear a sort of reverse fake head rig, which takes more measurements. The second one is the actual tuning session, usually a consultation with Tomohiro Matsuo, who runs Just Ear the Sony subsidiary. They clamp your head into a medical rig to take measurements, including things like the shape of your skull to maximize comfort. Well, they want an initial consultation to get a feel for what kind of tuning you might want, and that's also when they take the molds of your ears.
