oh well ... time to go truly wireless for once...
my previous wireless headset was ... kinda wired (but good) a
Sudio Vasa Blå (still so good that i pass it to my father
)
today i went shopping for monthly supply (food drink ... boring stuff) and at the local multimedia store there was an anniversary sale, lucky me it was the 2 last day and a select number of article were discounted (limited number, ) and 2 of those were left in the "bargain bin" while the other in stock (exactly the same) were still at full price of 129 chf
for 69chf:
Sudio Tolv ... awesome form factor, sound great, auto pairing 7hrs battery life in music/talk + 5 recharge in the carrying case, not AptX unlike the
Vasa Blå but still awesome.
also for my mother :
a Fiio M6 for 129 instead of 189 (with a free 128gb uSD) to use in the car and, well, anywhere else, she could use her phone but we came on the same conclusion as using a dedicated Hi-Res player:
1. sound better (plus can also be used as a wired/wireless DAC APtX/AptXHD LDAC/LDAC HD ESS Sabre DAC )
2. spare the phone battery for more other uses...
whitelisted app are exactly what we use : Spotify Deezer Bandcamp TuneIn and Tidal
well ... i guess i will take that one next week :
the one i was eyeing month back ... a Fiio X5 Mark III that i saw for 200 instead of the usual 399, i didn't take that one for mom ... because
1. it need tweaking (Fidelizer custom firmware)
2. more complicated than the M6 and less pocketable
the new M9 would be more desirable but, that one is 149 chf cheaper and since you can tinker with it ... it appeal me more ( full Android capability instead of limited mode with only whitelisted app )
).
