Xinz 0 Report post Posted January 29, 2010 Depends what you are looking for. Zen XFi2 supports FLAC btw S9 SQ is better, more options to tweak audio, and not to mention it is more expensive But Zen X-Fi2 got sd card slot Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
battleboy131 0 Report post Posted January 29, 2010 I mean in term of audio quality, does it differ alot? And is there any more better players then cowon s9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xinz 0 Report post Posted January 30, 2010 IMO, if that is the range you are looking for, there is no player above cowon S9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ferrari85 0 Report post Posted January 31, 2010 (edited) Zen X-Fi is the cheaper one, it has sd-card slot, but it doesnt integrate into the rest of the library (kind of defeats the purpose). Sound Quality i prefer S9/X-1000. In terms of sound quality, S9 with its sound enhancement enabled is about on par with X-1000 . Personally, i prefer the X, but that's just me. A lot depends on what iems/headphones u use though, synergy is important. Edited January 31, 2010 by ferrari85 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ferrari85 0 Report post Posted February 24, 2010 i am using Senn ie8 and bose on-ear headphone btw... How about as compared to Zune HD and X1000? I don't own and nv really heard IE8/Zune HD, so not really in a position to comment. Though, i've came across quite a number of guys in head-fi posting their impressions on IE8 + X1000, so u probably can head over there and have a look.

CHX 0 Report post Posted March 7, 2010 Cowon's S9 has fairly frequent updates to it's firmware and it does support FLAC, loseless..etc plus it's interface is customisable (though that may not be a plus point). Audio will never go wrong with it and it also depends on the headphones/IEMs you are using. Note: With IE8 and Bose hardware...it'll be fantastic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
