PassionForSound Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 (edited) Item Condition: Excellent Shipping Options: Pickup available and you can audition.,Shipping is included in price. Suburb or Town: Seaford State: Victoria Payment Method: PayPal / EFT Reason for selling: Bought Questyle QP1R which is worse for hiss and UI, but ever so slightly better for overall SQ Further information: I've tossed and turned on this sale because I love the XDP300R, but I can't justify keeping it and the QP1R. The Pioneer is a much better unit, ergonomically and with it's UI. It also doesn't hiss with my low impedance IEMs, but the Questyle just beats it for my main purpose which is evening listening via headphones so the 300R has to go to a new home. 300R will be delivered in original pristine retail packaging with original music still on the device (I've reset the device for sale, but kept a backup of the included demo tracks). Also included is a custom leather case. The case is great as it provides access to all controls without removing the case, but protects the unit. (The case was about $90 when new) No marks or scratches anywhere. Screen protector has been on the unit since I bought it. Battery life is excellent. uSD cards and attached IEMs in images are sadly not included in sale. Edited to reduce price as I believe I initially overpriced this (based on eBay listings) Photos: Edited May 16, 2020 by PassionForSound Price drop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scuzzii Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 I had one of these units and it is superb. You wont find better bang for buck in a DAP IMO. I upgraded to a A&K SP1000, otherwise would still have the Pioneer. I believe Marc also did a review on this player a few years back 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PassionForSound Posted May 14, 2020 Author Share Posted May 14, 2020 I agree. It's a little known and highly underrated player. The UI and ergonomics are stellar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now i understand; headphone amp, DAP perfect for photos processing. I've been shooting for 15 years and the headphone amp i purchased from you get used everyday during post processing. If this Pioneer came a bit earlier i would had purchased it but I have committed to the purchase of another DAP which came just before yours. again GLWTS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know a lot of photographer audiophiles. Happy shooting, editing and listening! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
