I’m looking for a BIFL (or at least last me for a while) music player that can play .wav files, has a lot of storage, is portable, and the parts are able to be replaced/upgraded. I’ve heard about using iPod classics but it seems like they’re unable to play .wav files. Any reccomendations?
Without running afoul of the BIFL ethos, I wonder why you can’t just use your smartphone?
No smartphones are BIFL, but you’re always going to have one, and even if you insist on WAV instead of MP3 or FLAC, you can still fit a pretty big music collection in local storage.
No headphone jack, and I want a dedicated device so I’m not as reliant on my phone.
A Qudelix solves the first part but not the second. Though you might be able to bluetooth it to your computer if you’re at home and your place is small.
