![]() What matters is the power and quality of the amp. Without it, there is no music, plain and simple. But some people do, especially if their headphones cost more than their iPod.ĭid you know that some headphones and earphones don’t play nice with the iPod? Let me explain: Every iPod has a built-in amplifier and digital audio convertor (DAC). I personally rip music in Apple’s own lossless format – ALAC., so I don’t worry about formats either. Granted, 99% of the public doesn’t care because most music is ripped or transferred to MP3 format. It will not play ultra high-res files, nor will it play some less common, lossless hi-res digital music formats e.g., FLAC, APE and WAV. Note: I’m not comparing the X3 to the iPod Touch, Nano or iPhone because the X3 is a dedicated music player as is the iPod Classic. Anyone holding an iPod for 10 seconds will almost instinctively figure it out without ever looking at a manual. Where the iPod Classic excels is in its user interface (UI). It will play high resolution files in a few formats as well as the lowly MP3 and it will sound good to great doing so. Apple’s iPod (I will use the iPod Classic as my comparison) has a huge 160GB disk that will hold most music collections with room to spare. The Fiio X3 is a music player similar to an iPod with some very important differences. ![]()
