If it was known and it is this serious, i really dont understand how they released it like that. Sorry, this product doesnt worth my 700$ if i keep getting headaches when i just try to use it.
Also, it shows Hebrew backwards - this is 2013... these problems were fixed on my old cowon 10 years ago..

Removing/inserting the cards doest help either.
I guess it's back to listrid for me.
These cards have no errors and worked great on listrid..

Hello all,
 
My first post on head-fi - wanted to say a massive thank you to all for your advice, made the process of finding a brilliant DAP so much easier, as well as helping ease my conscience about clicking buy. My AK100 was delivered yesterday and it is absolutely sick. Up all night listening to it on my year-old Senn HD650s and new AT-M50s! Morning kills.
 
Using Listrid 2.0 on both headphones now. I've been going through a slow period of upgrading my audio gear, even with my (admittedly under-amped) HD650s it sounds so much wider and fuller than the old FiiO E10 I was using from my macbook. Going to get the Schiit Valhalla later this year, and either the JH16 or UE18 CIEMs next year, but first thing's first, I'm looking for a decent portable amp. I've heard the iBasso D12 works well with the AK100, would that be a good place to start looking?
 
Once again, you're all so chill. Thank you!

When I installed the beta I needed to do a new scan of my cards as the device was as if new.
 
I didn't consider this a big problem.
 
I'm sure if you do a scan everything will be fine. There is no need to uninstall the firmware

2.01 can now be all right with scanning, but in the beta 2.0 was a mistake and I wrote about it earlier

It cant scan if it doesnt mount the cards- which it doesnt. The scan ends with 0 files processed.
I reverted to listrid and now i can see my music again.. That's a fact.
