I'm still in the honeymoon stage with my DAP to really know how I'm going to feel about it, but just in case anyone else is considering separating out portable audio old school/cassette/MiniDisc/iPod style from the phone and notifications and with headphone outs and decent power, the often recommended HiBy R4 is on sale for Prime Days for $199. Not the model I went with, but then again this wasn't on sale then or I may have. You just have to get around the "anime" design and a little weight.

"Anime" = "Cyborg-inspired Industrial Design"

There's even an Evangelion** edition with "tuning optimized for Anime enthusiasts!"

**"Evangelion is considered as one of the most monumental stories in human history."

Ha  - I literally watched this two days ago..

I watched the series when it came out and I owned it on tape. This vid did help me understand some things. I have watched some reactions to the series, and it is mostly people saying, WTF? most of the time... Great series, great use of stillness and the sound of cicadas. 

Anyway - The player looks cool, I don't think it fits my use case... 

:dan:

May be worse than that and see below, however the above R4 was $50 more everywhere (including Hiby) for the 3-4 weeks I searched and only lowered on Amazon a few days ago. I did see a SmallRig tripod whose sale price was the same as everywhere else most of the time though. Guess it depends.
