This is the second lotoo paw 6000 I have purchased from you. Needless to say I would give this portable unit 10 stars if I could. It does everything that I needed to do long battery life exceptional sound in all the categories.
Lightning fast UI and naturally resolving sound with good dynamics...never been happier with my DAP choice! USB DAC is very useful too! Thanks MusicTeck for the recommendation on this one.
Andrew was a pleasure to work with, helping me find a dap that worked with my needs and met my budget. I am very happy with the Lotoo PAW 6000! It is quick and easy to use, and it sounds excellent. The build quality is top notch and it sounds much cleaner than my go blu I was using before and has a dead silent (black) background. The Eq is easy to use in my opinion and a lot of fun. The bluetooth has worked great for me the odd time I want to stream so no complaints there either. If you don't need streaming capabilities I think you would be hard pressed to find a better dap without paying 2 to 3 times the money. The paw 6000 is an easy 5 stars and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a standalone dap.
I got the PAW 6000 to replace my MK1 Lotoo 5000 that finally gave up the ghost, after 6+ years of heavy use. ( actually still very functional, battery gave up, so wont hold charge) - And actually was just thinking of a replacement 5000, upgrading to the current version, as the quirky UI, I was used to, and the sound I was more than happy with.
But then started thinking about maybe an audio upgrade while at it. I looked at the Paw 6000 as this seems to be gathering great reviews, and my pockets definitely have bottoms in, so have a budget, and the paw 6000 , on top of the stella performance and quality accolades, seems to be a great value unit, plus Musictech seemed to offer the very best price I was able to find, so I contacted Andrew, and bit the bullet.
And extremely happy with the player, very intuitive, and customizable, and sounds beautiful, and a solid feeling unit I can easily see keeping me happy for many years. The whole experience, was fantastic, even my concerns of shipping to Canada were settled, Incredibly fast, reasonable postage. So if considering the PAW 6000, or even Misictech, Id recommend both in a heart beat.
First, GREAT service and fast shipping, no-nonsense customs - Thank you Grace!
The Lotoo PAW 6000 is an excellent value all around! I've had several A&K's, Sony WM1A &1Z, Sony ZX507, Fiio's.,.. overall sound quality and OS speed, battery life make this easily the best value under 2K, in my opinion. The quality of your files (flac or dsd) and the right IEMs or headphones also make the difference, as with any.
Really happy with this purchase, recommend it over A&K, Sony, and Fiio. As soon as I discovered Lotto is a big brand overseas that produces various pro-audio and related items, as well as being the producer of the (legendary) PAW Gold/Touch I decided to try my luck.
So--- A++ build quality, FAST OS (and so easy), great battery life, GREAT EQ! (Spend time with the EQ - it is very configurable), Excellent sound quality (++ better than the AK Cube imo), Gain works great, LINE Out is a plus. I can plug it into my Carver M I AMP with the 4.4 line-out... background and spaces between tracs are just as black as with iem's - never had that with any other DAP.
Received January 31, today is February 4 - ~30 hours on this player already - excellent! I may go for the Gold/Touch soon, if it's that much better than the P6000 I'd guess it is the Reference Player of all.

Unbelievable improvement in sound quality.. it's like an amp upgrade.. everything sounds more real, there is more depth in soundstage, more air between the instruments. Love it. Yes it's a bit cumbersome ergonomically, but you get used to it, and the sound improvement keeps you motivated
It is one of the best-sounding IEMs in my collection (EE Odin, Ani23, 64Audio U18T). It is totally worth the money. It is somehow bassy with good-quality bass for a non-dynamic driver IEM, and it has solid tuning.
This headphone is juicy in the midrange. In fact, the other frequencies sort of close in to help a feeling of integration of frequencies, like they’ve been created inside the midrange—where much of the guts of our hearing exist—and expanded to support the core of what happens to voices or instruments in that special place. So this I’ll describe as analog, meaning that it is trying to achieve a purity in the middle, perhaps with providing a more intimate sound (not wide open staging) with rounded tones (no over-arching treble). I would keep it but my love of historical piano sounds—with their twinkliness as percussive creatures—requires more treble on the spot and enigma wants to round those transients I feel. Which makes then prettier but not quite right. Also, there’s bass coloration in the unit that, again, creates for a lush or pretty soundscape.
I have two older Shanling MP3s and this one is really good. Highly recommended!
This is a review using the included cable. On that premise. As everyone has said, Macbeth is an all-round IEM with almost no flaws, taking the best parts of the Annihilator for the highs, the CP622B for the mids and sound field, and the Subtonic STORM for the lows. However, I feel that it is not a monitor-like sound, but a musical sound, so I guess that is a matter of personal preference. Even so, as the name Macbeth suggests, it is interesting that the sound is artistic and theatrical like Shakespeare. It really feels like you are listening in a hall. Macbeth is a really good IEM, except for the sound leakage and the price of the upgrade cable. I recommend it!
