PsyCX Posted August 12, 2004 Share Posted August 12, 2004 Hi there I have the H140 and it's an excellent player - especially with the radio and remote. The sound quality is brilliant and so is battery life but I must admit I prefer my Rio Karma, but only because it supports the FLAC format and gapless playback. There should be a firmware update released shortly that will support gapless playback though. -psycx Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/202697-mp3-player-iriver-h120-is-it-good/#findComment-584348404 Share on other sites More sharing options...

cal2002 Posted August 12, 2004 Share Posted August 12, 2004 Great player, I would recommed it. but I must admit I prefer my Rio Karma, but only because it supports the FLAC format and gapless playback. It really supports FLAC? Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/202697-mp3-player-iriver-h120-is-it-good/#findComment-584348669 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Brazil Posted August 12, 2004 Author Share Posted August 12, 2004 Great player, I would recommed it.It really supports FLAC? Sorry about it, but what does FLAC mean? And i heard that you can't get the battery out... It made me sad, 'couse there's no iRiver here in Brazil, so if the battery gets a problem, i'll have to send it all to the USA using the RMA... Is it really worth? :blink: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/202697-mp3-player-iriver-h120-is-it-good/#findComment-584349855 Share on other sites More sharing options...
cal2002 Posted August 12, 2004 Share Posted August 12, 2004 FLAC is Free Lossless Audio Codec http://flac.sourceforge.net/ I had no idea any portable players supported the format. And it does support both FLAC and Ogg Vobris, I'm freakin' amazed. I had no idea about this. http://www.digitalnetworksna.com/shop/_tem...o.asp?model=261 Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/202697-mp3-player-iriver-h120-is-it-good/#findComment-584349893 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zeni Posted August 13, 2004 Share Posted August 13, 2004 No, it's not, and the unit itself is made of plastic, thus more susceptable to damage and scratching.

PsyCX Posted August 13, 2004 Share Posted August 13, 2004 I keep my Rio Karma in a case that is made for the Gameboy Advance SP (don't laugh!). It fits exactly right and protects it as much as needed. And yes, the battery is replaceable - if you open the thing up and change it (I've done this).

I hope they bring out a model with a larger hard disk now as I filled up the 20GB drive with Pink Floyd encoded in FLAC. You can really tell the difference FLAC vs OGG with a band like that. -psycx Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/202697-mp3-player-iriver-h120-is-it-good/#findComment-584354962 Share on other sites More sharing options...
