Ray Samuels SR-71A portable amp (SE), in excellent condition (will come without 9v batteries, just to be safe). Plus... A&K AK120 (original, not modified) + 2, 200GB SD cards. I can reformat the cards, or leave them as is - buyer's choice (1 is full, 1 is empty). The same goes for what is...

Definitely!  Count me in.  I've been hoping for an Atlanta meet for a loooooong time. :-)   I can bring:   1.  Darkvoice TH337 tube headphone amp (and some different tubes for rolling) 2.  Astell & Kern AK120 3.  Heir Audio 4.Ai with Magnus cable (original, not updated...unless I can get...

Yes, they will work.  When I first got my AK120, I tried the same microSDXC to SDXC adapters that I used with my DX100.  They worked perfectly (I posted a link with a picture somewhere in this thread).  Obviously, you don't want to be running around with 2 adapter cables hanging out of your...

Quote: +1.  It's character, not age.  Good leather just does that.  I actually like the look of well used leather (scuffs and all).

Quote:   I'd add the RSA SR-71A to your list (unless you're specifically looking for something with a DAC, like the Intruder).  Given that the AK120 is already a DAC, you don't need the DAC function in the amp.  Even Ray will tell you if you don't need the DAC, get the SR-71A over the...

Quote:   Any idea if it has a cutout at the bottom for microSDXC cards (unlike the stock case)?

Quote: Lee - if you use Windows, download this free program: http://winmerge.org/.  It's called WinMerge.  It will tell you if 2 files are identical.  It integrates with the windows shell, so you can select 2 files, right click, and select WinMerge.  It will bring up the WinMerge window...

Quote: It's always fun to try something new, even if I do occasionally let the "magic smoke" out of something by doing it. (Yep, I've bricked a few gadgets over the years.)   When a manufacturer makes a statement about something that appears to be an arbitrary limit, like a 64GB file...

Quote: That's just odd.  I thought it might be USB 3.0, so I moved it to a USB 2.0 socket, but it did the same thing. Thanks for the feedback.  My laptop is a very new release - Lenovo Y510p.  It's still on its first release of drivers (maybe they JUST released some updates within the...

Quote: I do.   Just because you don't need that much storage, doesn't mean many others wouldn't jump at the chance to have their entire music collection on their DAP.  Personally, I don't want to spend time figuring out what I want to listen to then transferring it to my DAP.  I just...

Quote: Worked like a champ!  I had 1.21GB free on internal memory, 2.27GB free out of 59.46GB on SD 1, and 12.73GB free out of 116.71GB on SD2.  It scanned the library and found 9372 songs (had to duplicate some for the test).  It played everything just fine, whether from internal memory...

Quote: Well, guess what?  (the tension mounts....everyone is wondering... :-)   Look at the pic:     That's the same adapter I used with my DX100. So, The AK120 DOES support native (exFAT) 128GB.  I have 2 of those adapters.  So, theoretically, I could put 2 x 128GB SDXC...

Has anyone tried the DAC function on Win 8?  Mine works fine on my Win 7 PC.  Doesn't work on my Win 8 laptop.  The driver installs properly.  I see the device in the list of playback devices.  When I click test, I see output in the test window.  However, I get no sound through the AK120.  

Quote: LOL! :-)

Quote: Really?  That's not what I wanted to hear.  I'm using my 64GB microSDXC cards right out of the box, formatted as exFAT.  I wonder if formatting as FAT32 might overcome that limitation?  I have a microSDXC to SDXC adapter that I used with my iBasso DX-100.  It allowed me to use a...

Just for curiosity and comparison purposes to see what others are experiencing, I put together the following table.  I'd love to see what others are experiencing...   Software Version Capacity Used Power Up (initial screen to main menu displayed) Library Rescan (Full) Person Cards...

Quote: In short, yes, the DX-100 is that slow.  However, I never timed it to get an exact number.  When you put 172GB+ (the REAL total formatted value, e.g. 64 internal + 128 external with an adapter) music in it and compare the scanning time to the AK120, it's at least 5x slower (maybe...

Quote: Both.  I listened with the DX-100 and AK120 direct with both my Heir Audio 4.Ai and 5.0 cans, and also using my Ray Samuels SR-71A amp.  The problem with testing these two devices is that the DX-100 has analog line out + amped out.  So that's 8 combinations (line out / amp out...

Hi All -   Just wanted to drop a note saying hello to everyone in this thread.   I'm a new AK120 owner.  Just sold my iBasso DX-100 and replaced it with the AK120.   My 2p - I have to agree with the reviews about the DX-100 sound being slightly better than the AK120.  However, the...

Quote: I use an external amp because the DX100 is SOOOO good, it drove me to getting increasingly better cans.  Eventually, you end up with a set a cans that are so good/transparent that they demand a better amp section.  Also, some of the high end cans are high impedance (I guess this...

Quote:   I have the Anker 10,000mA.  It works very well for the DX100 AND charges my phone too.  A single charger for both devices that I always carry around.  It has 2 USB outputs (one will do 2.1A for those devices that need it) + a port than can be either 9v or 12v (12v for the...
