Fiio has changed their tagline since.
It's now just "Born for music."
But I always add the "and happy" part, because it makes me happy.
I think they were trying to capture the pun in their Chinese tagline (音乐，乐无限) which when directly translated is "music, infinite happiness". The second character of "music" is written the same as that for "joy/happy" (even though the pronunciation is different), maybe they eventually thought it was just too awkward in english?
@@diethylmalonate "Born for music and happiness" would have worked. We need taglines with personality nowadays.

Man, opening up that wooden MP3 player and seeing all those caps gave me the same feelings as opening up a tv or radio and seeing vacuum tubes.
I work in the electronics industry, and as much of a game changer as tiny surface mount devices are, big chonky components always give me an almost warm and fuzzy feeling. They bring my back to my childhood of taking apart busted radios and such to see how they work.

I actually got some HD280s based off your recommendation when my headphones broke and now I can't ever go back to cheaper headphones.
The fact that the first 2 songs you showed were daft punk and gorillaz, is 100% the reason I'm going check out your other vids cuz you obviously have good taste
Daft Punk and Gorillaz are good, but they're fairly popular, so the odds of him having them are rather high.
Casiopea, on the other hand, is more of an indicator he has a fine taste.

9:27 there are 4 standard of sd card:
SD: 1 MB to 2 GB
SDHC: 2 GB to 32 GB
SDXC: 32 GB to 2 TB
SDUC: 2 TB to 128 TB
Since none of this standard ends in 128 Gb, this device can probably support all the way up to 2 Tb
“It can only support xxx Gb” it’s a thing manufacturer says based on the highest capacity Sd card AT THE TIME OF MAKING; in reality it can support always one of those standards.
It may not support a higher capacity because it doesn’t have enough ram? But I highly doubt that
Nico 2102 imma need some information on those 128 tb sd cards
classyfenn the highest capacity micro-sd card on the market is 1 Tb, SDUC is just the standard, but for now the technology to produce those cards is not available
Maybe it has LBA28 addressing, which is the same thing that limits some iPod models to 128gb.
I do remember some devices being limited to smaller capacities than the theoretical maximum of its standard. Not sure the reason, but I'm sure it was a thing.
Nope, i have a new Nokia dumb phone that has a MicroSD only supports up to 32gb and the store only recommended 16gb. Higher capacity cards don't work.

Nah mate.. pocket pcs were a thing even before ipod... and yeah quite few people weren't happy with a device that plays music and that's it.
I bought mine in 2014, threw it in the closet until recently when I needed something for work. The thing is a beast, and still holds a great charge to this day 7 years later.

@@stargreen1609 oh yes ...the good ole divorce over zoom..i remember those days..those were the good times..
Kinda love that you have that "Around The World/Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger" remix from Vegoose playing. One of my favourites and another reason to keep watching your content! Greetings from Argentina!
You can actually use the scroll wheel to control the volume on the X1; you just need to hit a volume button first to see the volume level and then you can adjust your volume like ZOOOOOM-just be careful if you have something on your ears while you do it! You can also adjust in the settings to where you can use different buttons while the screen is locked with the power button: No buttons, Only Volume, or all face buttons IIRC.

I love that you're reviewing DAPs like Fiio. The updated version is actually still purchasable new for a single "hundge" from a site called Drop. They have a sale on the Fiio X3 Mark III for $99 currently. They also have headphones like the Hifiman HE4XX, Sennheiser HD6XX, and Beyerdynamic DT 177X GO headphones for very reasonable prices which are collaborations with each respective companies on their popular HE400, HD650, and DT 1770 headphones but for $130, $200, and $450 versus $450, $500, and $600 MSRP. They also used to have an AKG 7XX headphone which was a collaboration on the K702 which was available for $200. Great site for audiophiles looking for great gear on the cheap.
The site's Chief Product Officer is a huge audiophile/audio nerd so he gets a lot of things for the site. For one instance, they're making their own headphones this time around after buying the rights to the OPPO PM-3 driver tech. They made the Panda which is supposed to be a high res bluetooth planar ribbon headphone that's acoustically tuned.

I've got a Fiio M11 and I must say, it's the best music player I've ever used. Pretty much Fiio's version of the Ipod touch.
Is the iPod touch at a similar price point? Because the M11 is quite expensive. The M6 and new M3 pro are way cheaper and physically similar to the iPod but smaller.
@@austing5951 You can get an iPod Touch 6th Gen (which has iPhone 6 hardware in it, excluding the cellular stuff) used for around 100-200 bucks. I believe the 7th gen is like 300 or 400 bucks new, so not much cheaper than a brand new Fiio M11.
@@ixionn563 Ah, whereas I am looking at an M6 which is only $250 brand new from an Australian seller
While the M6 is more in line with the price of an iPod touch, i’d day it’s inferior performance wise. By that I mean it will have a much slower UI when compare to an iPod touch/iPhone. I even had a fiio m9 for a while and it was still quite slow. It sounded great, but when I upgraded to the M11, it was lightning fast and sounded amazing. Unfortunately, a lot of high end DAPs are still sub par in terms of UI compared to modern day cell phones. We are so used to everything being lightning fast and instantaneous with our phones, but that’s why m11 has the perfect balance of usability and sound quality.

Aaah so you know about the legendary (•)¡(•) huh?
Glad I wasn't the only one who noticed, man has taste
Casiopea is the most music I’ve ever heard it’s fantastic

AHHHH YES I SAW GORILLAZ NICE MUSIC TASTE!
( I still can’t believe he liked this )
I remember knowing someone who's MP3 player didn't stop at the bottom of the list, and had a mechanical scroll wheel just like this.
They asked me to find a song and I genuinely spent five minutes scrolling through a single album before I realised.
FiiO is great, my FiiO E10K DAC is holding up very well and sounds great
I also have it, it's so good! I also have their Bluetooth DAC, it's very handy with the jack disappearing from phones. I also use their TOSLINK DAC on my TV, it's much better than the cheap noname DACs
Lmao my E10k's volume knob died and it only outputs on the left channel now. Weird because my friend's E10k still works after 6 years. I guess I just got unlucky.
Also have a Bluetooth adaptor for my M50s. Works perfectly well. I can obviously hear the difference in audio quality (wired vs wireless) but I guess that's what happens when you can tell the difference between Spotify and CD.
I have the same DAC and i use it both as a "desktop" dac and as a "portable dac", it drives my Hifiman he-4xx like it's nothing
Yeah I've got one of those too that I use ocasionally, it's pretty damn good for the price.
I'm so glad you made a video about this! I have one of these and I was actually hoping you would do a video on it since it seemed so weird and out there at the time. Very high quality feeling device for the price. Back in the day I paired this up with ATH-M50's (The originals, not the m50x or m50s) and it was the perfect combo for poor high schooler audiophile. Loved this thing till the wheel died.
I could watch your videos all day. Thank you, appreciate the retro products being reviewed and of course all your energy!
It makes me so happy to see someone competent and funny making videos on non-ipod DAPs! Thank you, Dankpods!
The TH-cam Algorithm smiles upon you, child.
You got some quality tunes on that. We need a dank pod playlist.
The real difference I find with higher end audio equipment is you can hear the texture of the music
Love the content, love to hear more about your opinions of other audio gear!
You rly played up how good the big chungus sound so now I’m itching to listen to music from one 🤦♀️
If you can ever go to a music store try using any RME interface it will rock your world.
Why did my wifi have to be down when this was posted I can’t believe I missed it
“It Spins”!😂😂
last time i was this early the one terabyte ipod worked
Too soon dude, too soon

I had one of these a few yesrs ago, after like a year the spin wheel starts to go bonkers and unresponsive most of the time :(
I have the same experience. I think a tiiiiny bit of sand found it's way into my scroll wheel and it tends to "hang" when rotating it now and then.
The wheel on the X5 is much better. But I baby that thing so I don't know how it holds up..
Unrelated but you got amazing taste with that turn A gundam pfp
@@selfsatisfiedred hey thanks. Great to see someone else appreciate turn A's design
I've been watching since doom on an iPod and after watching your videos I've gained a love for repairing older tech and I still use somone of your videos to help. I mostly like to do older gaming systems but ipods still bring me back here very often
When seeing the splash screen of this, it totally reminded me of my recent purchase: Surfans F20.
Still getting used to the thing, but even on my cheap headphones, it already sound better than my phone that I was using for music until now.
If you can get one in Australia, you might want to check it out, it's reasonably priced I think.
I just got an iPod because of you.
Everyone gangsta until your Fiio X1 has almost every Gorillaz album. This comes from a Gorillaz and Apple IPods Fan. Respect.
I love that you have duel of fates in your music... Awesome!
Nice vid!
Recently got the BTR5, Fostex TE04s and AKG K52. Its a nice start to better audio.
I wonder how some of the portable DACs would compare
Mechanical click wheel? Definitely a gamer ipod

Same. I never owned a mp3 player actually.
wild watching these back and seeing hwo small the crazy 5$ lot were and now the list has to move at super speed just to get past, big up yourself wade!
I just recently got one of these because of this video, you can control the audio with the wheel by pressing one of the volume buttons first, so if you need to quickly put the volume up or down, you can !
I love my Fiio X3! If you press the volume up or down key, then you can use the wheel to quickly change volume.
Damn, I need me one of these. Great video as usual.
Good review of this one. I used to always want one. Thanks DankPods

I love when peaple name their pets human names like Frank it's just so funny to me I named my snake jake.
Regarding the volume buttons, you can tap one of them, then swivel the wheel to adjust either way
i love watching dankpods videos when i’m getting bored/sad it always brightens my mood
I'm assuming that you make the background loops, and i love how I can hear the gorillaz influence like this had hints of Rock the House in It and I love it
I don't even have an ipod, but I watch you xd
Easily one of my most favorite devices to pair up with an MDR-V6. I used one for a good three years until I bought a more feature rich device from them recently.
Don't think I'm ever gonna get rid of it either, it holds a special place in my heart.

Wow just saw your sub count, Been here since the first video Knew your channel would blow up. Can’t wait for the 1m count
You've made me want to get one of these now, among other things you've reviewed.
Theres a newer version of the device in this video called the X3 II and its also only $120-150
That’s not FiiO, that’s XDuoo. Still amazing tho. I love my X3 II
@@trotman000 No, Fiio has a model called the X3-II
@@trotman000 you've got it wrong, x3 is also fiio's thing
X3 kind of looks older than the X1, like a Sansa with no wheel.
@@lemons2300 That's the first X3 model. The second one looks almost identical to the X1 from this video.
This will be expensive for some time. I love it. I want three of these. With avocado.
I was scoping out a
FiiO X1 on eBay. Before this video dropped the bidding was at $15. It is now sitting at $61 and out of my price range.
I call it the Dankmus effect.
I used this to listen to my FLAC and 24bit song collection for about 5 years from 2015-2020.
It still works but I upgraded to a Shanling Q1 as I like the sound from the Sabre ESS Dac more, but this is still a beast.
Please, please compare an LG V20,V30 or V40 to these three players, I'll even loan my V30 out to you for that video.
If you're unaware the V series phones by LG feature an ESS sabre 32 bit "quad dac"
Lg g&v series are great for startup into audiophile scene. But using thus devices even that fiio x1 is like ur into a real audiophile world. I have fiio x3ii and ibasso dx160 together with lgv40. The biggest difference? Soundstage. Wider, more details, and that bass😍.
I had a LG v30 The Fiio is better. Get the x7 mark ii with amp modules. I use with Shure 846's and my Sennheiser’s and is a whole another level. Pretty much a good mastered track sounds like your there as way better sound staging and quite noticeable.
Still rocking my Fiio X1 2nd Gen five years after I bought it. This was one of the first things I gifted myself with my first salary. Was way too costly for me back then, but it has been totally worth it. My only complaint is that over the years, the UI has not always been itsstrong feature in terms of responsiveness. But still, this + BTR5 is a damn good combination.
Does it support .FLACs?
@@grugg3108 Yeah. It does.
I love these dedicated DAP's like these. I got a iBasso DX50 but it has a touch screen, which is annoying sometimes. But the kicker is that the battery is not only easily removable/replaceable, it uses a Galaxy S3 battery! Which are thankfully still being made somewhere in China at least. OH and RockBox is awesome.
I don't even own an Ipod anymore, but damn i am so hooked with your channel..
You’ve inspired me to dig out the Japanese flip phone I bought not knowing it didn’t have wifi. Time to turn it into a music player
I bought an iPod Classic because of you, thank you. ♥️
I love how everything I know about audio equipment comes from watching this channel. I didn't even realise that the brand of earbuds that I like are open backed and that was the reason why I liked them so much because I hate noise cancelling.
I have a fiio x1 and I love it, it takes some getting used to, especially when I’m used using an iPod classic.
next video idea : Thinnest ipod
HEY I see that Casiopea in there!
I had one of these, loved it. the wheel died after about 8 months though.
I have the X5mkII at firmware 2.1 and if I hold the middle button down, volume appears, at which point it can be controlled with the jogwheel. It also appears when I use the side volume buttons though I can still adjust it with the jogwheel. Also, maximum goes up to 120, but the limiter can be set to as low as 30.
