Astell&Kern AK380
I read somewhere the trick is to paste the stickers in the same orientation so that the electrons travel the same path. Don't know it's true or not, have yet to try it.- skysoul

Horrible. Spend so much money and cant get a battery replacement service. My set is more than 1 year old and the battery cant even go pass 4 hours of normal flac listening on balanced output. Zero sustainability design and support.Unless they can provide the battery replacement service, this...- skysoul

Astell&Kern AK380
EQ off and software version same for both sets should be fair to do a comparison., When u said the old AK380 was tune to suit iem, did u mean the EQ? cant see any other way to tune AK380 except EQ. Unless they use different brand components in the AK380 in different batches there might be...- skysoul

Oh man...we can do this forever. Sounds good doesn't mean excellent above all. I already stated and stand firm in what I believe that its a cheap L shape OM plug for the balanced mode to be used in AK balanced device. Nothing special; no rocket science research and development has been done...- skysoul

DITA - The Answer (Truth Edition).
Extra soldering on an existing ground wire to a cheap plug doesn't appeal to me to pay $300 more. I close my case. I myself audited the balanced Dita truth and yes the sound does make the AK240 sounds good. But then again I rather pay for something equivalent on value for money like the K10 or...- skysoul

Your justification for them on the 30%, i.e. 300 dollars premium for an additional short adaptor made with an unknown cable is pretty amazing. Hope you enjoy the premium balanced Dita.- skysoul

Correction...45% more its the Gold edition and 30% more is the normal Black edition. Cable the same, unless the trrs 2.5mm plug is made out of special material or coating or whatever marketing reasons they could think of to justify the huge difference. I believe (MOHO) and by looking, the...- skysoul
