I have the crackling noise as well.

Just a quick observation. I received the 5059 as a Christmas present and I haven't listened to much else since. The combination of great sound and bluetooth convenience has me reaching for these every time. I'm surprised, but that's what's happened.

I have trouble with anything paired with the SP200. The bluetooth connection is shaky with AirPods Pro, AirPods Max, and every other TWS I've used. The audio quality is typical, nothing special, and the only reason I use bluetooth is if I'm doing something and don't want to deal with the...

Just a thought here --- but aren't we the fan boys? I mean, what other dap comes with it's own fan? :)

Daily driver: EE Odin Serious listening: EE Odin I have others, but find this is the pair that brings the biggest thrill.

I use a SP2000 with my Stellia and think it sounds great. No issues driving to high volume.

Put them in a playlist. Since you choose the order of play track and disc #s are irrelevant.

So, no battery life improvements?

Yes, to the best of my ability to determine.

Battery Life Question My battery life has crashed lately. There are only two things different from when I was getting 8-10 hours playback. I have updated to 1.42cm, and I have started using the equalizer. Now I'm lucky if I get 4 hours playing the same files. I would appreciate any ideas...

Why can’t I sign into Apple Music? I got a 3 month trial and wanted to see how AM was on my 11Pro, but I can’t past the login screen. I have tried a couple of different versions going back to 3.3.0 (3.3.2 is said to work, but didn’t). Appreciate any help.

Static in the headphones. I've started getting static in the 2.4. balanced output when I turn the plug. Any idea what it is or a cure? It's not too bad, but I think it's getting worse. Thanks

I Seeing all the Legend X posts I thought I'd ask my question. I purchased the universal version 3 months ago, and now one of the Final Audio tips won't say on the iems. It's stretched too much to stay. So, 1. Is three months a normal amount of time for this to happen? and 2. will they...

This is a seemingly common SR25 problem. Mine does the same thing with Tidal and many others have reported similar issues. I guess the only one not having this problem is A&K who doesn’t acknowledge it exists. Welcome to the world of the SR25 - the nonstreaming streaming player.

I read on the EE website that the Legend X uses size 500. I can confirm that. When mine arrived today I popped the T-500 on without issue and listened for 5 hours without a problem.

I'm getting a bit frustrated in my search for a new set of IEMs. I want something that would remind me of the bass quality of the Fostex TH900, but everything I've tried seems to rather pale compared to it. I've had to stick to reviews and not auditions because I'm in New Hampshire and there is...

I haven't found a command in the settings except the rebuild, but usually a power down and power up works for me as it scans the card on power up.

What I've found is that if I start downloading an album or a playlist and wait a few seconds for the first track to download I can then listen to the rest of it while the other tracks download in the background. I've come to live with the short pause to start, but no problems after that. But I...

I'm still trying to figure out why I keep getting wifi dropouts on Tidal streaming and I'm looking for some information. If you have Tidal and have dropouts, do you have another of the apk services installed that does not dropout. Does Amazon music HD dropout? Does Apple Music dropout? It...

I thought I'd post an update for anyone who might be interested. First, I did hear back from JasonNYC from A&K. He thought it might be the player itself and that I should swap it for a new one if I could, otherwise he'd arrange for service. Since I had the player less than a week, I did send...

You know, I think you have hit on the winning solution - just download the files I want, and I haven't had a download fail yet. I've got a 512gb card for my music, so I can give all the players memory to Tidal downloads. Since I can redownload anytime I want, I can clear the Tidal downloads...

When I connect the SR25 to my wifi it says that the signal strength is "Excellent." Link speed is 359Mbps with ping being 16ms and jitter 1.4ms so I think I am ok there. I live in a small house in the suburbs of Concord, NH and there aren't too many other wifi networks running and I've never...

I took your suggestions and went as far as to replace my router. Totally different brand from Xfinity. Again no problems with any of my devices except the SR25. Fewer dropouts with the new router, but still unacceptable for something that is supposed to be a streaming device. It's going...

Thanks for the info. I will try the iPhone hotspot to see if that does anything. I appreciate the data. I live in a suburban area and there are a few other networks, but I haven't had interference problems before. It's probably a weakness between the SR25 and my router. Who knows how I fix it.

I need help with the wifi dropping constantly. I received my SR25 two days ago and have done nothing but put in a memory card with about 400gb of music downloaded the latest Tidal app. The unit upgraded to 1.10 after being turned on for the first time. I am getting 6-10 wifi drops per hour...
