The Cowon iAudio S9 16gb Titanium is strictly for the audiophile! You can get 16gb mp3 players for half the price, and really it is not entirely honest calling this an mp3 player. It does play mp3s of course it does but to get the absolute best quality sound the provided FLAC audio software is unbeatable. You can also play WAV, mp3, WMA, OGG and APE.

Video quality is nothing short of stunning for a small unit and this is largely thanks to the AMOLED display which responds faster and uses less energy than standard LCD displays. This of course not only means awesome quality video but longer battery life! The manufcaturer suggests 11 hours of continuous playback is possible, even half that would beat most competitors.

All of this quality does come at a price with the Cowon S9 being in the higher end price bracket for units of this size with similar storage, however it is far from being the cheapest and for those who demand quality this unit is definitely recommended. Get your hands on one and you'll want to keep it!
