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?

    I once had a debate with my audiophile uncle about how lossless compression results in identical inputs to the DAC, but he clung to the illusory superiority of WAV.

      I can see someone not caring about the wasted space in 2024, but does WAV have the ability to store ReplayGain tags?
