@@DankPods Simple to explain wy the large FLAC player sound way better. While your other Phones and iPods can play music nicely on your high resistance headphones they greatly lack in the amplifier department. The higher you need to set the volume / the higher the distortion gets. Having a large amplifier helps with lower distortion and can take the generated energy from your large, high resistance speakers swinging back in your headphones way better. If you plug in the iPod into a dedicated external amplifier it will also sound much better, although not nearly as good since you still have an additional amplifier introducing noise and interference. Also sorry for the way i tried to explain that. Its a bit hard when you dont natively speak englisch * If you like the sound of this thing id sugest getting a Sony High Res Player like the NWA 45 series They soud realy good

It has a lot of bandpass capacitors in it. That’s probably also what’s making the banging noise you were talking about. The caps charging and discharging.
@@unorganized_account Definitely a grounding issue. When this happens, I'm generally holding onto something metal plugged into the same power strip (which has actually happened multiple times oddly enough despite the specificity of the situation)
DankPods: "I'm the only guy that only got iPods because people threw them out." Me: I'm the guy that got an iPod when I told my mum "I wanted to get an iPod no matter what model it is" and she gave me her 4th gen shuffle saying she can't get it setup
@@FirstnameLastName-mr8lk Wow that's epic. Wish I had a 2nd gen touch. I plugged my shuffle into my PC and it's a 2GB model in the purple colour. Still has the previous owner's songs on it. I even got the bloody apple sticker too. It's almost as if my mum never touched the thing once out of the box.
That type of USB port is usually pretty durable, definitely better than a micro port, those flake out in no time. Since it's easy to get into you could have someone that's good at soldering reseat the port, it may just have a weak connection to the board since you mentioned it was always bad even new (otherwise I would argue corrosion maybe).
I’m one of those “I don’t care about iPods but I love this channel” types, and I think it’s just ‘cause you have a really fun personality and charisma to watch. If some stuffy tech reviewer made a video about this thing I wouldn’t give it the time of day.
👍same here. One of these videos was in my recommendations so I clicked and I am not disappointed lol. Funny commentary is great no matter the subject and also this guy makes it interesting. I don't have an iPod lol.
Hi from Russia, I look relatively recently,but I can already see the potential of the channel, funny jokes that even those who are slightly familiar with the language will understand, the best channel and the best videos
*FYI* *You can adjust the volume within OSX in significantly smaller increments using “option+shift” and the volume buttons. This will also work with the brightness controls.*
nitpick: the measurement on headphones in ohms isn't resistance, it's impedance which is similar but different in that it doesn't just tell u the load of the headphones but also the headphones' effect on changing the timing/reflecting of waves sent through it. it doesn't really matter for the average person to know this but if u want to do more reading into why it matters to have an amp then it's good to know the terminology. Also i fully expect someone who knows electrical engineering to come along and give a more in depth explanation nitpicking my nitpick
Yeah, another interesting thing about impedance is that dynamic drivers like those in the majority of headphones have impedance/frequency curves that vary massively, especially around their resonant frequency. Very important to understand because high output impedance sources like output transformer less tube amps will change the frequency response due to the reactive load
5:42 "What were they thinking?" after talking about shitty action platformer controls? Was that an AVGN Reference? I really hope that was an AVGN Reference or maybe I just watched too much AVGN lately.
I love it, it has the look of being from an alternate future were things are not designed to be sleek, minimalist, efficient or ergonomic. I'd like to see more devices made larger or heavier than they need to be and make them look cool and interesting. Woo audio makes an amazing DAP that is like a gold brick that also has a built in tube amp, its beautiful.
hey moit, love the vids, just giving you a hint on Mac: use shift+option and volume up and down to get a little finer control, it works with brightness too (if you didnt know, i bet you did though haha)
10:40 If you hold Option+Shift while adjusting the volume, it allows you to control the volume on tiny increments. This is also true for monitor and keyboard brightness.
Wow, thank you for reviewing this player. Almost 10 years ago I went on a audiophile website, saw this player being sold for astronomical amounts of money and dreamed of how I'm gonna grow up, make big money and buy this one. Now I know what it's like
Let's see... early 80s brings the first Walkman and, coincidentally, the death of the 8-Track. By the mid-80s, the CD has emerged and, by the late 80s, the CD "Discman" is somewhat common. (Personally, I've always wanted to see the AU 1982 where some Korean factory pushed out an 8-Man.)
This video actually helped me learn about the stuff with the audio resistance that I didn’t know at all. It actually terrifies me how you can go deaf from the small mistake of leaving the volume too high on a device like this.
4:30 It is _technically possible_ to get 64 gig and larger Micro-SD's working; the limiting factor is Format. Modern MicroSD's at 32GB or below are formatted in "FAT32" while larger storage devices are formatted in "ExFAT" - by installing certain programs, you can reformat any ExFAT storage device into FAT32, though keep in mind that larger FAT32 storage will slow data reading from the SD card exponentially as sizes go up. Source: I own a New 3DS XL with a FAT32 128GB SD Card fitted.
I also have a new 3ds xl with a 128gb microsd, the 32gb limit on fat32 is just an arbitrary restriction of the windows formatter, fat32's max file system size is actually 2TB(16TB with 4K sectors), so this thing can theoretically read a 2TB MicroSD card formatted in fat32
This is the most beautiful device I have ever seen. I wish everything was designed with this much artistry. Pity about the functionality and usability.
This player is like the soup chef that will kick you out or leave if you don't do things his way, but when the stars align, it's the best thing you've ever tasted
The 32GB limitation is actually not a fault of the device, but rather a default of SD standards at the time. The SDHC standard only supports up to 32GB cards. It wasn’t until the SDXC standard started to be implemented that devices could support 64GB+ cards. Currently, this standard supports up to 2TB in theory.
@@richk6827 just thinking I could probably do that 🤔 but it would be complety done by hand so no cnc and stuff, I guess that would be to expensive to sell then
One important thing to notice: when you want to have a serious audio setup with a great pair of headphones, get the right hardware to run them of! This obviously has to be in relation to the rest of your audio setup. So if you‘re running a $100 pair of headphones, think about going for a $40 DAC and AMP combo in one. But if you spend $2000 on headphones (e.g. Sony MDR-Z1R, I love them so much), at least plan $500 for a good quality DAC (like the SMSL-SU8 balanced DAC) and most importantly: a great amplifier. If you want the cleanest experience and actual tons of performance, get any of the THX desktop amps (789, 887, 888 by Drop, Monolith, SMSL). Only (and only in this case!) when you‘re spending
I could imagine it being used in a studio when you want to show your boss the state of the product without having them come to where the gear is. Just put it on the SDCard, bring some decent headphones, and bring it to their office, so portable in the sense of take it to a different room not take it outside. It would be extremely helpful if your boss is either on a different floor or even a different building, and they want to hear it as it would be, or as close to as, in the studio.
This device is actually very famous among Chinese HIFI people. About ten years ago when I was first into HIFI, this is like the first proper HIFI MP3 made in China. We call them the 'Chinese bricks' since it's just huge and heavy, and powerful. The company actually has newer editions that somewhat resemble the look of it, maybe you can check them out.

Modern MicroSD's at 32GB or below are formatted in "FAT32" while larger storage devices are formatted in "ExFAT" - by installing certain programs, you can reformat any ExFAT storage device into FAT32, though keep in mind that larger FAT32 storage will slow data reading from the SD card exponentially as sizes go up.
Source: I own a New 3DS XL with a FAT32 128GB SD Card fitted.
I also have a new 3ds xl with a 128gb microsd, the 32gb limit on fat32 is just an arbitrary restriction of the windows formatter, fat32's max file system size is actually 2TB(16TB with 4K sectors), so this thing can theoretically read a 2TB MicroSD card formatted in fat32
Here I was at 4:46 am binging your videos and what do you know
Same
Welp not for me where I live 3:26
Bro the whoa at 4:45 is the best part of the vid hands down.
If you want a specific volume on the Mac, just use option+shift+volume keys. It goes up in increments.
Mom can we have an ipod?
We got you something ten times more expensive at home
ipod at home:
I wouldn't complain unless I have to put it in my pocket while listening to music 😂😂
This is the most beautiful device I have ever seen. I wish everything was designed with this much artistry.
Pity about the functionality and usability.
7:42 When you import the ROM into Audacity
and 7:57 is when you find the PCM sample in the raw data
No one:
Dankpods: uploads at Australian normal time that's 3 am everywhere else
In my contry is 1 pm(Eastern Europe)
@@callmepillo Didn't you mean 1am
This is the type of device in shopping magazines ya read on the plane
This player is like the soup chef that will kick you out or leave if you don't do things his way, but when the stars align, it's the best thing you've ever tasted
This was the first DankPods video ive ever watched. And now im wearing Samson SR850s because of him, and have binged nearly every video he's uploaded.
And so, it’s confirmed, DankPods listens to Gorillaz. Another reason why I live this guy
it’s been a year and i haven’t noticed that i misspelt “love” as “live” until now…oh well !! too late ::}
I've become addicted to your videos.
Your just really entertaining, dude!
*loud static* "Yeah, this one's my favourite!"
Your Australianisms genuinely make me smile, fucking love Aussies 😂
There is nothing better than a load of amplifier headroom.... super dynamic and clean.
The 32GB limitation is actually not a fault of the device, but rather a default of SD standards at the time. The SDHC standard only supports up to 32GB cards. It wasn’t until the SDXC standard started to be implemented that devices could support 64GB+ cards.
Currently, this standard supports up to 2TB in theory.
I love the wood back cover. It's like the old Woody station wagon of music players.
Someone should make custom wood backs for iPod classics.
@@richk6827 just thinking I could probably do that 🤔 but it would be complety done by hand so no cnc and stuff, I guess that would be to expensive to sell then
the newer and much cheaper colorfly c10, has the same style back.
bless your heart, and here i thought i didnt have anything to watch at 3 am in the morning
trash Just wait until you have nothing to watch at 3am in the evening
Bruh, that's a Steam Punk ipod. I need one, while simultaneously being the least needed thing I've ever seen. Incredible!
Oh its a total audio toy, not needed at all. Its the music equiv of an ivory back scratcher
I know it ain’t the best technology wise but WOW it’s beautifully designed
So glad I'm not the only one who can smell large music files.
Luckily I'm awake,it's 2:46 am! 19 second gang!
It's 5: 54 here in the PH lol
8 pm
Lmao I'm 19 minute gang
It's 2 pm in Ukraine
12:14 in Germany🇩🇪
The Zune HD is my favorite music player
I love the Sansa Fuze. Not the Fuze Plus, though..its DAC isn't as good.
The Zoon
*it's a ZOON*
If you dropped that in your pocket it would put the volume down unless you are a psychopath and put it in with the audio jack facing down
Every time you say "dollarydoos" it cements my head canon that your RUclips channel takes place in the Bluey universe.
“I’m a piece of audio equipment and I must scream”
I... I might have to consider getting Patreon just for this guy. These videos are gold.
One important thing to notice: when you want to have a serious audio setup with a great pair of headphones, get the right hardware to run them of! This obviously has to be in relation to the rest of your audio setup. So if you‘re running a $100 pair of headphones, think about going for a $40 DAC and AMP combo in one. But if you spend $2000 on headphones (e.g. Sony MDR-Z1R, I love them so much), at least plan $500 for a good quality DAC (like the SMSL-SU8 balanced DAC) and most importantly: a great amplifier. If you want the cleanest experience and actual tons of performance, get any of the THX desktop amps (789, 887, 888 by Drop, Monolith, SMSL). Only (and only in this case!) when you‘re spending
When you admit to liking vinyl, you catch a lot of FLAC.
I could imagine it being used in a studio when you want to show your boss the state of the product without having them come to where the gear is. Just put it on the SDCard, bring some decent headphones, and bring it to their office, so portable in the sense of take it to a different room not take it outside. It would be extremely helpful if your boss is either on a different floor or even a different building, and they want to hear it as it would be, or as close to as, in the studio.
7:43 sounds like some diesel engine lmfao
When i was this early he didn't have his dollarydoo.
ImmenseViola what the hell is a dollarydoo?
Why is my volume silent?
*turns it up to 100%*
*CLAP*
ow
that thing is actually beautiful
i love that design
This device is actually very famous among Chinese HIFI people. About ten years ago when I was first into HIFI, this is like the first proper HIFI MP3 made in China. We call them the 'Chinese bricks' since it's just huge and heavy, and powerful. The company actually has newer editions that somewhat resemble the look of it, maybe you can check them out.
