Is it possible to show both the name of the song and singer on the normal playback screen? At the moment it only shows the name of the song.

I have many CDs that I turned into one flac file with a cue file saying where the tracks are in the flac. All my flacs + cue files plays fine. Maybe something wrong with the headers in your files?

Have you updated to the latest firmware? On the initial firmware, the player hanged on me a few times when I tried to test lots of different songs by jumping to lots of different folders. After the updates, the player haven't locked up once (fingers crossed). But I usually power off the machine...

honestly speaking, I have seen a number of cks77 on sell in HK red with black ring. And these places definitely sell fakes.

its is because a lot of devices in japan have devices such as cd players, md players, mp3 players etc come with a remote and a detactable earphone. so the short cable  earphone are designed to plug into these remotes.     This is also why the short cable earphones are quite prevalent in...

the latter lame encoded  vbr-0 mp3 files are top notch and are compatible with all the mp3 playback devices I have tested on so far.... ( I am still using lame 3.98.4)     as for futureproof.... keep the lossless files on on a portbale hdd/computer in flac/alac and then convert it to...

for those who has been finding the bass a bit too much, are you actually listening to the cks77 at the same volume setting as your last iem?  I find these iem to be quite easy to drive and so most probably require a lower setting compare to your previous iem.   on the music I listen to on a...

danny93,   For dynamic iem, using high or low gain usually doesn't effect the sound signature that much. just a volume difference.

what do you mean they don't do the ckm series in the UK?   did whathifi review  the ckm55 a couple of years ago....

the faber castell emotion looks very nice.... I might have to import that pen from the uk.

Sicilian,   try a lower listening volume whenever you find the bass is overpowering over the rest of the music. some people forget to turn their volume down because these are pretty efficient heaphones.     for my "normal" listening volume on the iriver e30.   ckm77 is set at 21/40...

until i saw the direct comparison. I didn;t realise the housing is that much bigger and longer

hahha, I think we are all bassheads to some extend

"burn-in" - I can't detect much more easily detectable change.   cks-77 took about 30 hours burn in for me.   ckm77 took about 100 hours burn in.       after burn in. the cks77 bass gets tighter and the vocal feels cleaner.   at the volume level that I listen at the cks77...

ckm50--> ckm55 --->ckm500   ckm70 ---> ckm77   cks50 ---->cks55   cks70 ---> cks77

short cable is design for changable headphone for remotes and if you want to put the device in a shirt pocket. (radio and the old portable MD player only)     looks like I will have to test the ckm500 once it become common and cheaper in HK.      

ckm77, cks77 comparison.   For me......   if your source is clinical - cks77   source is warmish - ckm77       if you want thumping bass - cks77       airness in female vocal - ckm77   lush warmish yet roomy in female vocals - cks77     cks77 works better...

danny93,   good to see you are enjoying your headphone as well. with a bit of burn-in the vocal gets better :)

Even though I knew that the bass was quite punchy on the cks77 from dsnuts review. I actually bought these to see what it brings to the normal tracks. (I am not a bass head)     I am certainly enjoys these iem on "audiophile" cd vocal tracks :)     Personally, I think these iem ...

glad to hear that the cks77 turned out to be the most refined of the AT cks series :)

I used to love my parker jotter ballpen as a kid until I moved to HK and found  the Zebra  F-301 ballpen.   The zebra f-301 is truely a great funtional ballpen :)     As for gel pens uni-ball signo micro 207 is one of the best.

dsnuts,   don;t worry, I am sure a lot of guys will enjoy the cks77 sound signature. I personally do, and it has become my main portable headphone.

after listening exclusively to the cks77 for the last few days.  I gave my ckm77 a try and found it to be very lean while the cks77 is so full bodied in comparison.

I would say the cks77 is pretty pleasing to the ear and very easy to drive. Which makes it ideal for portables. :)   But I still stand by what I said about at higher volume, the bass will overwhelm the rest of the music.       In addition, even though the cks77 looks bulky. In actual...

dsnuts,   your mind isn't playing tricks on you. After 30 hours burn-in at the higher volume I stated before, the vocals do sound slightly better and clearer. I think the diaphragm has lossen up a little which allows it move slighly faster.     Or as you suggested..... maybe a mind...
