Also what do you plan to listen to these flac files from? Because not many portable media players will just readily play flac.
Native FLAC, no; other lossless support file formats, yes.Quote:

Cowons will(which the D2+ is going to be my next player). Although I think it's a pretty lame idea to listen to lossless files from a portable media player...Quote:

The Cowon D2 does have a true un-amped line-out....but you need to buy the line-in cable converter and the line-in cable. That is the only way of getting a true un-amped line out.
So in this way you can connect to a external amp of your choice.
Wait a while if you can .. Cowon D2 is better than D2+ incase u r planning to buy it .. All the SQ Settings can be imported into D2 form D2+(kinda like importing d2+ rom into d2) ..Quote:

heres a link where you can check the quality of rips by the EAC log.This gives a fair representation, mind you this is not related to WI, WI is still the best standards ever on any site, bar none.
this is a pretty OT post bt whatever,:p.
Thanks for the suggestion. I'll have to check out the D2.Quote:

You have an recommendations for a good audio only Cowon? I don't care if it can play FLAC, I"ll never listen to FLAC from a portable player. But I would like it if it allows all the other formats, especially OGG. Drag n Drop is a necessity too(the reason I'm ditching the Zune, I hate the computer software), and touch screen would be a plus. But definitely not a necessity.
Thanks.
