Re: New Adventures in Chi-Fi
Been having a good mess-around with the H2 player and have got a grip on what it's capable of. Included was a 64Gb micro SD card, very nice. The H2 accepts up to 256Gb extra storage or a maximum of 15,000 songs in its database. The operating system is fairly easy to master. I like proper buttons rat...

Re: New Adventures in Chi-Fi
The Hifi Walker H2 has arrived and I'm giving it a quick initial listen. 1. It doesn't like earphone plugs that have the extra connection for a phone mic. Standard stereo 3.5mm plug works fine.

Re: Streaming and payments to artists

Re: New Adventures in Chi-Fi
Soooo ... to cheer myself up a bit, I have ordered a new toy. The very excellent Fiio X3 music player that I use in the car has been doing sterling service for at least 10 years now but I am concerned that it'll stop working one of these days and, also, modern connectivity demands that you have devi...

Re: Forum Slow Running & Hanging
Good luck tomorrow morning with the forum maintenance, Terry.
Hope everything goes as planned.
