I received a shipping confirmation email from AK for AK70 Mk2. But my pre-ordered AK70 Mk2 case (navy color) has not shipped yet. What is the estimated date for the cases to be shipped? Is there any difference in terms of availability among different colors?

Hi. Just confirmed your case shipped with your AK70 MK II.

I'm very much interested in the impressions people have of the AK70 mkII. Especially how the AK70 mkII sounds compared to the single AKM dac Kann. Everybody enjoy his or her' new DAP!

Here is my first impression comparing with SP1000Cu:

AK70Mk2 delivery day!! Here is my quick impressions...

I don’t have Kann, but this may provide you some idea about the sound/performance of AK70Mk2.

CD-Ripper will arrive in our US offices on Monday. They will start shipping to customers and dealers before the end of the week next week.

I believe the Michelle Limited is also arriving in that shipment, but let me confirm.

Is there a black version? I didn't know there are color options. Where did you find the info?

There is not a black version of the CD-Ripper MK II as far as I know, unless it is a country-exclusive limited release. I will check, but for the US and most of the world, it will only be available in the gun metal.

It's the lighting in the picture. That is the gun metal color, it just looks darker in this image from Moon Audio for some reason.

 

[Audio Addict]

It is the same image on the AK website. It really looks black on those 2 photos.
