so this will share similar SS to Colofly C4 Pro?
... maybe the CS4398 makes it harder for it to be re-chipped (get my meaning ??).
Vinnie - Is it absolutely impossible to increase the internal storage of the AK120?
Thanks.
Actually, I think we both know that some of those AK120 sales are because you make the DAP more viable for buyers who wouldn't otherwise be tempted.
The only way to do it is to run a ribbon cable from the card slot to an external XD card.
I saw posts about people doing this (I think with 256GB), but never tried it.
Internally, the 64GB SanDisk storage chip on the AK120 is a BGA:

One needs a machine to remove and install a new one, and an X-ray machine to make sure all those balls are connected
under the chip. And I haven't even mentioned any SW compatibility issues that will probably come up.
Thank you - and this is the feedback that I have received. But I have already received emails if I'll be doing anything with the AK240. I'm really not sure at this point if it will be
worth doing anything or not. Even after modded, it would have to sound a lot better than the RWAK120 / 120-S / 120-B and with the switch from Wolfson to Cirrus Logic, I'm not so
sure about it. We'll see, but I think the AK240 is more about more features than best possible sound. I hope I am wrong...
Sorry I have no idea about that.
May be 3.5mm 4-pole? But I hope 4pin Iris...
I just hope not another portable balance connector. trrs or iris is better..
