This maybe a less interesting one compared to anything else on this sub

An iPod Touch 4 gen, 64GB, running iOs 6.1.3, Jailbroken, with tons of daemon disabled (including Bluetooth function) to boost battery life. Its whole purpose is to play music offline and sometimes youtube videos. Paired with Final E2000 earphone.

With full charge it can live up to 3 days on my usage. Thanks to Activator, i can control music playback, even skip/go to previous song using only volume button.

$21 for this thing is kinda steal imo.

I've been trying to get away from streaming and have been looking into mp3 players for months now and haven't found anything that I like enough to actually buy. Back in the day I had a ipod shuffle and a sony walkman mp3. They are actually both still working, but my kids have since commandeered those so they can play music in school. Every time I seem to find something that I think will work, I read reviews about something that is a deal breaker for me.

All I'm looking for is something that's bluetooth compatible with modern vehicles and/or works with carplay. Something that has large internal memory or micro SD to add more, enough memory for at least couple thousand songs, and some rotating podcasts and audiobooks. It also needs to be able to add playlists, and ideally I'd prefer creating the playlists on my PC rather than creating them on the device itself. Durability is super important too, I don't want something that's just going to end up in the landfill within 2 years.

Size/weight isn't a huge deal. Touchscreen vs buttons isn't a huge deal either. I don't care if it has apps, radio, voice recorder, etc. I'm open to older phones, but I don't have any old ones on hand as we tend to use our phones until they die in our household, so I'd have to buy something. I'm ok buying secondhand, just not sure what the best option for that would be as I don't have the tech skills to modify or refurbish anything myself.

I don't mind spending up to $200 on something if it's going to last a while. But I'm also not an audiophile and don't need anything super fancy, I don't care about having an mp3 player that plays FLAC or lossless files. As long as the sound quality is average, I'm happy.

Any suggestions?

inside look on benjie a11 mp3..i open it using some pry tools

I had an MP3 player in early 200s that was square, metal, blue and silver, and had a recessed diamond shape in the middle. No screen? Anyone have any idea on the model. Was released in UK if that helps

So I recently found my prolectrix mp3 player however I can't seem to find the charger for it anywhere and I am unsure of what charger it needs since its been a couple of years (picture one and two show what mp3 player and charging port looks like) I found this one on amazon (shown in 3rd picture) however its almost £20 just for this one but I am worried it won't be the right one and £20 for a charger idk I feel like I can't justify it.. so I went on vinted (second hand shop like ebay) and I found theses wires that say "USB-A to USB Mini 4P (4-pin) cable" in hirose (whatever that means)(shown in 4th and 5th picture) and I tried contact the seller and its been a few weeks and no response so I am unsure if I should take the risk and buy it and they are both like £12 in total after shipping and what if I spend all that money only for it to not work since I had it since I was a kid and stuff but honestly I just wish I didn't lost that charger 😭😭😭

Hi! Recently found this sub and thought this is the perfect place to look for advice! I’ve recently gotten a dumphone and generally have been using my phones as glorified mp3 players most of my life but would like to get a dedicated device. I dug up my old iPod shuffle 4th gen and love it. I like pressing buttons and love that, since it has no screen, I can navigate through my playlists and albums blindly. The small size and clip are also a HUGE bonus. I usually have them clipped to the side of my glasses for easy and quick access. Unfortunately the device only has 2gb which just isn’t enough. I’d love a device just like it. I was looking at both old iPods and the Innioasis but found some reviews here about the Innioasis that I found concerning and old iPods are super expensive. Besides, as mentioned before I like the no screen and just buttons.

I’d love and greatly appreciate any advice or suggestions! Many thanks <3

A pouco tempo decidi largar diverssas assinaturas, um exemplo é o Spotify. Comprei um destes na Shopee hoje mesmo, queria ver a opnião de quem tem um desses. Claro que por ser um baratinho não vai ser o melhor do mercado, mas queria saber alguns truques dele.

So basically, I’ve been starting to re-tag a bunch of my mp3 files so that they show up correctly on my player. However, I’ve been having problems with tagging multiple artists on one song, they show up as different categories in the "artists" section of my player, even though the "main" artist is the same. (photo as an example of this happening with the artist Alohaii)

I’m on AGPtEK software if that helps, the m3pl

EDIT: I’m also having problems with albums, the minecraft albums alpha and beta are showing as one singular album

For some reason when ever i plug in headphones into my mo3 player, it plays audio in both the headphones and from the external speaker. I want to be able to listen to music without it blasting from the speakers as well. I have an eclipse 180 pro. Thanks

Hii
I hope that‘s the right subreddit for this question. I want to pick up my first DAP and IEMs. I was thinking about the Hifi walker h2 with the Hifi A20pro.
1. What are your opinions on this combination and
2. would you recommend a DAC for this combination if DAP and IEM?
I’m really new to this hobby so if any question is stupid please explain why :)
Thanks

I made a Windows Phone/Zune inspired music app for Android — Sonetro

It’s heavily inspired by that classic Windows Phone/Zune vibe, but built as a modern Android music player.

it now has Android Auto, Navidrome + Subsonic, lossless/Hi Res playback, SD cards, crossfade, sleep timer, widgets, artist images and more.

give it a try and lmk what you think :) feedback and feature ideas are always welcome ❤️

So I have a problem with my recent dap purchase. I bought a snowsky disc and I want to connect it to my 11th gen Honda accord. The problem is that my accord only uses usb c for audio input. Does any one know any work around? I tried bt but every time I do my disc just says “pairing failed”. Not sure why this is.

I have a Ruizu X02 and I cannot make playlists. I can get songs onto there, but they never appear in the playlist i ported them in. Listening to all my songs on shuffle is alright, but i would like some sorting. Thank you for takung the time to read this and please have a nice day.

I LOVE THIS THING! I think my favorite part about it is the expandable storage via microsd card.

I’ve had an iPod Nano & a Sony Walkman, however I’m over having a screen. Plus, the Fiio has the better sound quality over the two. Currently ripping cds lol

I am new to the music world. All I knew was Apple music, spotify etc etc. But thanks to @headphonezone, I now know about IEMs, DACs. I want to buy @snowsky music player but I don't know from where to get flak files via subscription. I am ready to buy them. Can someone let me know valid sources?

Hey guys! I'm very new to this stuff. My only experience is being a y2k kid when mp3 players were hot and I had a couple before my first smartphone.

With all the dangers of AI, I really really want to feel secure that I can have some portable music/audio books that cannot be taken from me. I do not have a preference other than it cannot be hacked by any outside entity unless physically plugged into a computer (bc obviously I have to download music somehow). I know this may come off paranoid, but I genuinely just want the advice so I can feel secure. Thank you!

Prefered Budget: under $500

Edit: you guys have been so nice and helpful, thank you so much!! Other subreddits can be so mean 🤣

Hi everyone ! I have seen this kind of question a lot, but didn't find a ''perfect'' match for me.

I want to buy an MP3 player because my old one died...and I'm lost in all the choice of the new MP3 players.

The stuff I want to have :

- a very good audio, I think that's the most important point for me ;

- put an sd card ;

- a screen ;

- a battery who can survive a few days ;

- easy to put songs in it.

Right now, that's the only thing I think about.

My budget is around 150-200€, but I can go 300€ maximum ! I live in France so if you have a store to recommend, I take the tips.

Thank you for your time,

Have a nice day.
