For audiophiles in search of equipment with perfect sound reproduction quality, media players like the iPod are out of the question.
If you don’t mind shelling out a wad of cash, you could score a slick, high-performance alternative: the Pocket HiFi C4 Pro.
The Colorfly Pocket HiFi C4 Pro not only looks awesome — check out the hand-engraved black walnut case, a retro pushrod volume slider, and an almost Steampunk-style brassy face — the hardware specs read like they’d make even the most seasoned aural aficionado swoon.
The Pocket HiFi C4 Pro surpasses average PMP performance with the ability to play 24 bit/192 KHz WAV files. Inside, it uses a CIRRUS Logic CS4398 DAC and CS8422 SRC for a dynamic range of up to 120 dB and a signal-to-noise ratio of 108dB.
Listening on some quality cans? The headphone jack features a built-in amp for 13.3 mW of power. It accommodates 6.3 or 3.5-mm jack sizes.
For the hefty price tag of $799 (the price it’s going for on Amazon), you also get an SPDIF port for connecting with stereo equipment and what looks like an SD card slot.
