What is the difference between the XD3 and the XD3NA speakers?

Thanks for the question. There actually is no difference. The "NA" is a internal part# addition that should have never made it to the web header. As a matter of fact, now that this has been brought to our attention, we will be submitting a request to have it corrected immediately.

I don't think any user can answer this question. You should better send an email to the company

The only difference is that D5S has a switch to turn on/off. But both are excelent microphones, great quality and soundtrack!

I've had the X3 and now the X5, no comparison between the two. I have my X5 paired with the Fiio e12 diy, that is the ultimate.

The differences are on the Roku site. The XD has exended range wireless, that's what I would go with. http://shop.roku.com/Roku-Streaming-Player-Options-W5.aspx

There's a user review posted on head-fi forum saying that Sony confirmed the difference to be only cosmetics and packaging. I own the XB920 and have tried store demo of the X10, and I find the builds quality almost identical, indicating at least the shell/housing is the same.

I haven't tried the DGX so I can't attest to its amplification capabilities or sound quality. I'm not sure if the DSX volume issue is due to an inability to drive headphones or a driver limitation. It must be noted that I'm using the UNi Xonar 1.75 drivers that have the normal ASUS drivers, and two versions of the C-media control panel that you can choose from when installing. The volume is the same between all of them.

I believe the difference is the xt means extreme so it is waterproof and the plus you can sync with another speaker

The Onyx Studio is a slightly older version lacking a 3.5mm input jack. Otherwise it appears that they are assembled with the same components as far as the sound producing parts are concerned. I purchased it to use with bluetooth devices so the missing jack is not an issue. The sound is INSANE and clear.

I have heard, from LinusTechTips on YouTube, that the ASUS Xonar sound cards are great. I have the DGX, one of the cheaper ones, and it sounds really good.

The component HD is better, however, you can use them.. they just won't be heard only by you. those around you will hear it too.

Honestly, I can not compare as I have not tried the other. Obviously, it has lots more power. As a previous audiophile, I can tell you that although "sound bars" are convenient they do not compare with real amplifiers and reals speakers. I can tell you I am happy with the sound, and the digital input works well with my 60 inch 1080p 3D TV. My only complaint is when you use digital input you have to use the rinky dink remote that came with the sound bar to control the volume. My advise is don't skimp on sound it is just as important as the picture when it comes to watching movies. Honestly, I can not compare as I have not tried the other.

It depends on what better means. It has 100 watts as opposed to 20. It has a full bodied 12" speaker to the 1's 8". Also, to play a club or bit bigger will require the 100 watt. The 3 has a lot more options for effects and amp emulation. In these ways the 3 is far superior to the 1.

The only difference is that the xb400 are on ear headphones and the xb500 are over the ear although they both sound great!

I bought the Altec Lansing BXR1220. I think I only paid $11 a few weeks ago but now they are ~$17. Whatever... great upgrade over the crap speakers on small TVs like the Samsung 22". Powered by the TVs USB so no electrical brick to deal with. Plugs right into the headphone jack and is a huge improvement.

No difference in performance or quality. They just use different frequencies so you can use more than 1 set device at the same place and time (N1, N2, N3, N4)

I would say yes as the Mont Blanc amp is supposed to be fantastic, but I wouldn't buy one just to pair with an X3. The X3's amp is pretty damn solid and I think the difference would be neglagable, unless you're using cans that need a lot of current. Now if you're buying the amp anyways and are going to use it on different devices of course pair it with the X3 ;). I mean the main purpose of the X3 is an awesome sounding all in one device, so you don't have to lug around a seperate amp. I've been the separate amp route and I've spent way, way too much on portable audio stuff - so I appreciate the value and simplicity of the X3. The X3 and a nice mid high end set of iem's is all I need in my portable setup, and my wallet thanks me! Sorry about rambling on lol, there is better sounding gear for sure, but how much do you want to spend and when do you reach the point of deminishing returns? I don't visit sites like head fi anymore, keeps me out of trouble ;) They are always coming out with bigger and better things damn them :)

This might not be the answer you want since I have never heard either, but this Yamaha sounds better than the Bose wave iii , which I mentioned in my review. I also have a recent model Onkyo mini system, which sounds quite good, but the Yamaha beats it out also. I think the Yamaha is well worth the price!
