Any DAP up to ie. 200-300 bucks is fine, anything above that is stupidity. Nobody have ears to notice a noticeable difference between a 200 $ and 4,000 $ DAP. There's so many factors involved that in 95% of the time the diff gets simply nullified. I've a hearing around 25kHz and it ain't working in my favor due to ear vax constantly changing and that crap makes my sound experience divergent on an hourly basis. Get yourself a 200 bucks DAP and be happy. Go for the features. Sound-wise they're all the same, more or less. Measured in femto or ato scale.

Which of these two will do this (if any)?
