neck yourself idiot

So asking on the proper thread now about any info related to the Walnut V3.

Also, does the guy that makes them has any website? Because I can't find it and that would save me from having to ask here every week.

Anyone with a xDuoo X2 knows if it's possible to remove the annoying fade-in effect at the start of every track? I have no idea why they'd do that

>decide to use my iBook G4 to copy music over to my rockboxed 4th gen
>somehow the music folder got nuked
RIP
Also DHL seems to have lost my cf to ipod adapter so i cant post about that.

Searchead for a bit, i only found their official store on Taobao world.taobao.com/item/542124740337.htm
But i don't know nothing more about it

I use a mini disc player

Why not just use phone?
My LGG4 has a built in DAC+amp that drives my headphones just fine. If your phone has a dac, and ideally a slot for micro sd cards then there's no reason to get a portable player.

I really need to fix my car audio system because it sounds like fucking shit, specially the bass.

But I'm clueless about how to proceed.

I gotta admit, this general is niche as fuck. So niche that I can't remember the last time we passed 80 posts before the thread died.
You think there could be a merger with /hpg/?
If nothing else we could have fun ruining it.

You think you're super cool
Because you're not a part of a hobby

head unit, something new with jewtooth, low level unit is fine.

4 channel amp with at 50 watts per channel RMS at 4 ohms. name brand, no walmart shit. remember peak watts don't mean shit, RMS is king. that's why i mainly fucks with rockford fosgate.

4(four) 6.5/6.75 inch woofers/speakers, not a huge 6x9 fan but if you want one pair to be 6x9 that's fine whatever, they'll sound fine.

subwoofer amp, doesn't have to be anything sick. ported box so you can get more boom for your watt and dollar. ported vs non ported is a taste argument. buy a pre-made box with a 12 inch subwoofer of a known name brand if you're brand new to this shit.

have the best local shop you can deal with install it all. will hurt your wallet but at least it'll be done right and they will warranty the work and product.

looking at going with a rockford punch 600x4 to replace the rockford power 300x4 amp, and going with some rockford prime 6.5 components all around to replace the JBL's

Care to post pics?

On this episode of user is Surprised That 3rd Party Software Supports This Despite it Being in the Settings this aux cable that was falsely advertised to work on an iPod touch puts out audio just fine on an older model.

If you look at the datasheet for the 30 pin connetor, you'll see it has pins for left/right line out, so it's compatible with all iPods, even on stock firmware (at least on my Video, Touch 1g and Nano 6g)

Huh. The touch (2g) wouldnt output anything. It was a dollar store buy that has been sitting in a box for like 3 years so i guess it paid off. I'd mess with the touch, but its softbricked and in a box somewhere.

Guess, i bought my touch 1G two years ago from a computer faire in my city for 5€ as "not working"
After i took the lil bastard at home, reflashed the OS and after some soldering to the jack because the ribbon connector was broken, i used it for ~3 months attached to my Note4 with velcro but gave up because my music collection can't fit in 8GB

So, I'm looking for a affordable player that is expandable with SD Cards. Any recommendations?

I didnt think anyone saved my pics, neat

Remember to keep the box so when you sell it you can get more!*
>*box is from a different ipod my dad had in 2004. I dont know why he gave it to me and not the now dead (simple HDD and battery failure) ipod. Keeping th box doesnt mean you can sell it for more anyways, unless it has never been removed from that box, then you can sell if for 200x the price obviously.

Real Walkmen Only.

just use your phone lol

Just use your phone posters must be missing the point. Low effort faggots. So, I'm in the market for a new pmp. What can I get that would be better than just using my phone?
