Do you think there may be an acoustic leak from the jack hole? ~Tyll Hertsens

Not sure if I like stuffing one hole or both holes. Tending toward one hole since both holes seems kinda ghey ~Purrin

Didn't they have a model where you put a battery (AAA?) to power the bass effect?

Oh man, I had so many iriver players. Loved them to death. After the company started going downhill in like 2008 I moved on. Customer service went from stellar to literally refusing to fix a player that was under warranty. Swore I'd never buy another iriver unit. Figured it wouldn't matter since they were about to bankrupt. But then the Astell and Kern line popped up. Either way, I'll never buy another iriver unit.
