    Looking for a good dongle DAC

    Hi all! So here's my situation. I currently have an Astell and Kern SE200 DAP that I've been using for about a year now and absolutely love the sound. However, it is quite bulky for on the go use and has mostly been relegated to my transportable/desktop DAP when working on my computer. My IEMs...

    Astell&Kern Launches New A&norma SR35 Player

    As someone who has owned the SR15, SR25, and the SR25 MKII, I'm curious to see the reviews come out on this one. I loved the form factor and general UI of the SR25/SR25 MKII but was very disappointed by the wifi and bluetooth performance on both devices as well as how laggy and slow it was with...

    Astell&Kern A&futura SE200: First DAP With Multiple DACs - Head-Fi TV

    Hello all, Hopefully this is a suitable place to ask this question. So here's my situation. I currently have an AK SR25mkii that I recently purchased and there are a lot of things I like about it and some I don't. For example, there seems to be a known wifi issue that causes frequent...

    Astell&Kern A&norma SR25 MK II - Available November 2021

    UPDATE: I did just figure out how to transfer playlists from my old SR25 to the MKii! I'm not sure if this has been discussed anywhere online before, but it's not what I expected at all. So when you create a playlist in the player itself, they are stored in a folder called "playlists" locally on...

    Astell&Kern A&norma SR25 MK II - Available November 2021

    I'm experiencing the same wifi issues with my unit as well:/ I've tried changing the channels on the 2.4g connection on my router, but to no avail. This wifi issue makes AK Connect mostly unusable since it will play a few songs, then the app will freeze on my phone, and I'll have to disable, and...

    Astell&Kern A&norma SR25 MK II - Available November 2021

    I do have one more question for anyone who may be able to shed some light on things. So, prior to selling my old SR25, I copied the playlist folder containing all my .m3u playlists I created on the original SR25 to my computer desktop. When I got my new SR25mkii, I copied the playlist back over...

    Astell&Kern A&norma SR25 MK II - Available November 2021

    I think a few others commented previously who can probably do a better job explaining the sound than me, but definitely feels a bit more open than the original with more pin point accuracy. The original SR25 wasn't bad by any means but kind of sounded a tiny bit muddy compared to the MKII. I'm...

    Astell&Kern A&norma SR25 MK II - Available November 2021

    I just got mine today and can confirm there are many improvements here over the original SR25. One huge improvement in my opinion is the new back button on the now playing screen. Have you ever been shuffling your music on the old SR25, landed on a song and thought "oh, I'd really like to...

    Astell&Kern A&norma SR25 MK II - Available November 2021

    That's very true. I have yet to find a dap that has as strong of a bluetooth connection as even a very entry level cheapo smartphone. I don't pretend to know anything about how the intricacies of bluetooth implementation, but this is one area where I don't know why Daps seem to have so many more...

    Astell&Kern A&norma SR25 MK II - Available November 2021

    I love my SR25, and my only gripe with it was the poor bluetooth connectivity quality. I couldn't step more than 10 feet away from the player without it breaking up and was virtually unusable outdoors. Since this still has BT 4.2, I'm assuming they haven't altered the implementation at all.

    Astell & Kern SR25: The next A&norma player

    I'm glad I'm not the only one experiencing bluetooth issues. I actually returned my previous SR25 and got it replaced because I believed there had to be something wrong with it, but I still get issues with the new one. My issues are connectivity range and stability. Sometimes, if I'm right next...

    Fiio M9+A5 Amp vs. Fiio M11

    Awesome, I'm glad I could help:) I got my Tin T4s back when they released on indegogo and they are now my number one listening IEM. As far as the size when the A5+M11 are stacked, I would definitely say it makes it a lot less "portable" in the sense that you aren't just going to slip it in your...

    Fiio M9+A5 Amp vs. Fiio M11

    Update- I did end up selling my M9 back in September and getting the M11 and I love it! Not only does the M11 sound better than the M9, the user interface is so much snappier and intuitive. I still held onto the A5 however, and find that it does provide more gain than the M11 alone can provide...

    Fiio M9+A5 Amp vs. Fiio M11

    I’ve never heard the Q5 before, but am I correct to assume that the M9+A5 is very similar in sound to the Q5? I believe the m9 and q5 have the same Dac.

    Fiio M9+A5 Amp vs. Fiio M11

    Hi everyone this is my first post, so please let me know if this isn’t the correct place or if I’m doing something wrong. So, about a month ago I got a Fiio M9 and I have it paired with my A5 amp. I use an HD6xx and the Tin T2 IEMs with it and I love the sound. However, the M11 came out...
