Saying the 2Go is a pain to use is a profound understatement. For a few dollars more they could have put a rudimentary display and playback controls on it and made it a useful device. Given its current state and software, its a curiosity at best. Given the current server software options on...

Focal Stellia w Arctic cable. This combo is the most satisfying portable combo I’ve had. The Hugo2 2Go combo sounded great- perhaps the bass was more articulate than the sp2000- but i prefer the midrange smoothness and clarity of the sp2000 / stelia combination. That being said, the user...

I really don’t agree. I’m using the TT2 in my home system. It is wonderful- but while the Hugo2/2go sounds really good- it’s not appreciably better than the sp2000, either through headphones or plugged into my home system. Furthermore, the 2go is such an unfinished product that I had to get rid...

I had similar feelings until I switched the cables.

This is the same combination I am using, and honestly- it is the best all around performing two piece system I have ever heard. i just upgraded to the silver Arctic balanced cable, and this has brought it to another level of articulation and clarity. Absolutely worth the investment. (looks...

It's funny you mention the es60 here. I have been on an extensive search for the best portable setup I could come up with. I've had been using the Onkyo player with the ES60s for a couple of months- and was very happy. After a lot of back and forth, I finally splurged on the Silver Dragon...

Mine from B&H also. No plastic wrap. Just inner and outer boxes.

Any info?

Ok, so I've been using an AK120II for over a year, and I've loved it. I use the balanced output on my Westone W60s for ultimate portability, and a Fostex HP-V1 on the single ended output when I'm driving bigger phones. If just pulled the trigger on the Onkyo DP-P1 for a few reasons- most;y...

You should definitely hear some tightening up of the bass- particularly if you're using good phones, -Andy

I'm totally ok with the fact that you have to be just a little crazy to be an audiophile. It took me 6 months to place my speakers ***! It's amazing what we go through to squeeze out that last drop of audio quality. No offense taken-AT ALL!! -Andy

LOL! I have a dedicated mains for my home system- I'm well acquainted with the slippery slope- I wear skis most of the time....

Yes, just plug in battery as though you were charging the DX90. I've not tried it without the internal battery in place, and I've not tried any of the replacement internal batteries (yet). My issue with replacing the internal battery is using it out of spec- it shouldn't be an issue, but a...

I haven't tried any of the replacement internal batteries yet- all of my experience is other external USB batteries. I don't know how to aggregate my posts, but the DX90, to my ears anyway, is superior in virtually every way to the AK120, except possibly the resolution of low level detail...
