Sounds great to me and I have downloaded a couple of hundred sample tracks. Music is very clear, no background noise and lots of punch in the sound. I was a non believer until I tried it using a Fiio Andes DAC on my Sony player. All my CDs are ripped using flac and even they sound better. Crap MP3 stuff even sounds better. Try it although your ears may not be to good after driving machinery for all those years. Lots on the net that google can tell you. The younger your ears are the better I believe, my son tells me it is pretty darn good. :) Ken	kenj (9738)

1390693	2014-12-23 05:37:00	Well that was Xmas. I no longer care about Thursday. Son dropped off his child for the day, his last day at work. We got his car fixed, I paid half. Then he turned up with a massive container of his work meal, chicken, pork, crackling, stuffing, roast veges. And his enormous ham which he gave us 50% of. I boned it out for him first. Made ham steaks for us, froze them for whenever, still heaps left. Cats are too hot and well fed to care about the scraps.... We're all full. Got given Chocolate macadamias by a customer, another tried (unsuccessfully) to give us wine too. So I think we're done now. Have no intentions of repeating it all in 2 days, LOL. His GF working tonight, tomorrow night, Xmas night, boxing day night anyway....9pm to 7am.	pctek (84)

I wish you all the best in the New Year however... Cheers LL. :)	lakewoodlady (103)
1390696	2014-12-23 19:25:00	LOL Well, the official date I guess, ours has happened already, that's what I meant. Granddaughter will no doubt be keen again - she hasn't opened presents yet< i told her she has to wait for THE day. She comes back on the 3rd for a few days, then again end of Jan. So summer fun time.	pctek (84)
1390697	2014-12-23 19:30:00	Got most of my Christmas gifts early combined with my birthday - money to spend on tramping gear! :D Good stuff, I went for a bit of a wander around Lake Lyndon yesterday. Really looking forward to moving back to Nelson and hooking up with my tramping mates after this 2 1/2 year hiatus in Christchurch.	gary67 (56)
