How is the ui/navigation? is it easy to browse a list of 100+ artists and 1000+ albums quickly?

"Quickly" is in the eyes of the beholder. So, let me begin by saying, I'm not familiar with the Android operating system as I have an iPhone and prior to the Onkyo, my experience with media devices was limited to iPods. With that said, the short answer from my perspective is it doesn't seem to be the most intuitive, but "yes", it's relatively easy to browse. Note that I'm not as technologically gifted or nimble as those less age-challenged, i.e., younger than me, but I've been able to figure it out using the instruction manual. For me, using the Onkyo is akin to searching folders on a computer. There's a screen that displays all of the device's storage options (internal, SD card 1, SD card 2, and USB). My high resolution music (DSD 2.8MHZ/64FS, flac 192kHz/24bit; 176kHz/24bit; 96kHz/24bit) is set-up on my computer in folders by artist name, with albums in each folder. So, when I select SD1 on the Onkyo, for example, I'm shown a screen with all folders on that card. I can select the artist and within that folder, the album, and individual song. Or, I can select "Play all" at any point. The other SD card has my iTunes music on it in Apple Lossless format. I use two Sandisk 200gb cards in each card slot, so total usable storage is 420gb. Seems like a lot, but high res format eats it up quickly. 82 albums on one SD card uses 106gb. The other SD card has 3,600 songs by 208 artists in AIFF format that uses 133gb. Scrolling/searching for artists/albums/songs on the latter SD card is obviously a bit more time-consuming than the first, but not a problem for me. Sorry for providing more information than you probably expected, but hope this helps. With that said, I'm happy I went this route. Pair the Onkyo with a set of high-end headphones or earbuds, and you're in personal audio heaven. Enjoy!

What's the diference betwen dp-x1 and dp-x1a?

Igor's answer is correct. I went to Onyko USA website. The DP-X1A is not listed under "Products", "Hi-Res Audio" for whatever reason at this time. Only Product listed is the DP-X1 so I called Technical Support and was told the only difference is the internal memory 32 DP-X1 vs 64 DP-X1A. 1-800-229-1687 if you want to check for yourself.

Does the Onkyo dp-x1a come with adaptors for use in the United States?

No adaptor included, because it is suitable for any usb adaptor you can find

Onkyo dp-x1a or pioneer xdp 300r? Which is the better choice?

I've the Onkyo now, but owned the Pioneer too, which I sold. In my opinion the Onkyo is a better allrouder, it's wonderful with all genres of music. The Pioneer is ideal for rock music, it's punchier, but not ideal for classocal, jazz, pop, etc..
