I love my iPod. My little red 5th generation Apple MP3 player is still a device that lives in my pocket, perfect for whenever I want to listen to top-quality wired music on the go. Sure, I’ve bigger, more powerful devices that play music at even higher quality, but they’re all too big, too bulky, and their battery life is not as good as my little iPod.
Perhaps, though, my iPod has finally met its match — and it's in the shape of the Activo P1, a very well-priced, sized, and specced player from luxury audiophile manufacturer Astell & Kern. This svelte little player has everything I look for in a compact music player, and does it all better than my iPod. But has it found a permanent home in my pocket?
