Honestly, Sony DAPs measured at ASR or L7 Audiolab thus far have been really really poor.

I'd not get my hopes up, if I were you.

In the meantime, instead of waiting for Sony to get it's shit together, check out the few DAPs that actually perform really well.

Thanks for your comment. Yes, I know Lotoo's higher-end DAPs test well. What other options are good candidates?

Fair point. I've had a few DAPs before but their OS performance was never smooth and battery life pretty abysmal.

Not really interested in the Chinese market either.

Honestly, getting a cheap phone with good battery life and SD support, paired with a dongle seems like the better DAP to me.

Because if you ain't goin chinese, DAP prices are beyond mental.

I've thought about that. Just update my phone with a huge HD for example.

Just curious if it will be a disruptor in anyway. The NW-A306 seems to be at a somewhat competetive price new but performance will tell more I guess.
