If I have read the DX220 manual correctly, I simply use the coax cable that came with it and plug it into the SPDIF output on the DX220 and into the coax input on the Chord. Plug my headphones into the chord's headphone outputs. and, voila. Is this correct? Cheers, Dave

Is there any improvement to be had from the Fiio M11 (non-pro) from a SQ point of view? My AK 120 II is getting on now and obviously won't last forever (the on/off button is already "sticky" and non-responsive sometimes). The Fiio has a larger, better screen, which is a boon for an old...

As the subject title suggests, what would the differences be between these 2 IEMs? I've recently dipped my feet into the IEM market with the CCA C10 purchase and very very happy with their sound. I find the bass is reasonable, reasonably tight and detailed, mids are nice, treble is not...

So, I'm totally new to IEMs, thought I'd see what the fuss is about and try a cheaper pair, so bought a pair of CCA C10s after much reading on the net... They've arrived, look great, but one of the earbuds has fallen off as I was taking it out of the packaging. I spent near 20 minutes of utter...

OK, I've tried to understand this, but I'm not entirely sure I'm understanding things correctly and want to make sure with those smarter than me that I am. I have an AK 120 II. I'm looking to connect it to my home audio system. Current preamp is an Audiolab 8000C. I initially thought I...

I haven't logged into head-fi for quite some time, just logged in and was advised by Chrome to change my password as this site and my account details had been part of a data breach. I couldn't find anything via a Google search to indicate that head-fi had been breached, and a search of the...

Hey guys, Just went to power up my AK 120 II for some listening and it's DEAD. As a door nail. At first I thought that perhaps the battery was flat, but it had 3/4 battery left when I last used it 4 or 5 days ago, so I was suspicious that this wasn't the answer. Plugged it into the charger...

Hey Guys, My AK120 II is starting to muck up - it's a weird issue - some albums refuse to play and the player just continuously scrolls through the album's track list and the touch screen doesn't respond to the play/pause track back/forward buttons at all. The rest of the touch screen does...

Whenever I try and reply to a PM etc, my system just grinds to a halt.  By that, I mean high CPU usage.  General browsing of the forums and composing thread replies doesn't seem to experience this issue, or at least, to the same degree as with PMs.     This problem has been present for at...

As the thread title asks, has anyone compared the Fiio x7 to the AK120 II??   Particular interested in sound quality and also of course, the UI.     Dave

I'm curious, I'm quite happy with my old 540s, and very happy with the way that they sound with my AK 120 II DAP - would the Sennheiser HD600 phones sound very similar to my old 540s I wonder?   What are your thoughts?     Dave
