I posted my in-depth written review about AP80 PRO!!!
Surely a DAP I liked, good resolution, excellent build quality, lots of detail for the price, good stage and driving power. Also MSEB, so you can easily match it with anything out there
Hi guys. The first post in this thread says the AP80 supports microSD cards up to 512 GB, but the company write-up on the Amazon page claims 1 TB. Can anyone confirm that they've used it with a 1 TB card?

I'm guessing that the max capacity listed for any given player is a function of when it was released and when the specs were written. Many dirt cheap players say 32G limit but that's because bigger cards are typically formatted in something other than FAT32. I've successfully formatted up to 128G cards with FAT32 and used them in all sorts of cheap players (why tie up my good player just to spend a week burning in a new set of IEMs) so I wouldn't take the size limit too strongly. Granted there can be a memory limitation on total number of songs but that's basically a different issue

Since the SDXC standard covers cards up to 2 TB and all 512 GB SD cards comply with the SDXC standard (or the nascent and rare SDUC standard), it's assumed that any device that can handle 512 GB cards should also be able to handle 2 TB cards (if they ever hit the market). Many manufacturers only guarantee that their devices will work with cards they actually tried, and since the AP80 came out before 1TB cards, maybe Hidizs just chose not to claim compatibility with then-hypothetical storage cards.
after testing with several dacs and several listening sessions with friends I came to the conclusion that 16-96 is all you need for very good sound. 24bits is double the data and al but useless as long as you don't use the dac's volume or want to make a studio mix. 16bits is a lot of headroom. 24bits can't translate completely to analog, if you can achieve 20 bits you are very fortunate and wil get hearing damage within 1 hour. Given that the average background noise is about 40dB, maybe 20dB at night somewhere in the country you can deduct even more bits. So a real 16 bits is enough. And that is all dependant on dac method, ds needs more kHz to filter all the HF rubbish out than R2R.
hey, so i've found myself back on the AP80 bandwagon, but this time with the AP80 Pro. Like it a lot. Only issue I have come across is from time to time it will crash and reboot. Any reason why? I used two different SD cards in it and it happened. The first time was with a 16gb (while I waited for a larger one) Then again with my current 256gb card. Only got 3500 songs on it right now. Its happened three times so far. Is this something thats happened with people? Is there a FW that sorts it out. Im on 1.3 rn. I never had this issue with my vanilla AP80. Thanks in advance!
