“This is, without a doubt, the first audiophile-worthy portable digital audio player I’ve encountered in the past 13 years of covering portable audio technology,” said Eliot Van Buskirk of Wired magazine. The Head-Direct HiFiMan HM-801 Audio Player is the first of its kind, a portable, lossless audio player, as it is able to not only support standard formats like MP3 but also APE, WMA, FLAC. The media player’s system is so advanced it can play 24-bit files that sound better than CDs, with much wider frequency and dynamic ranges. While the player’s abilities are incredible its price is not as progressive; The Head-Direct HiFiMan HM-801 is priced at almost $800.
