    Astell & Kern SR25: The next A&norma player

    I want to play native SACD .iso files on my SR25. I see that Foobar2000 can be installed, and I have no issues with SACD on my Win10 laptop, but to enable SACD playback I had to install an additional component, is this possible on the SR25? Thanks in advance. BT

    Astell&Kern-no longer supported

    Ah, seems that its not just me then! I tried to log into Tidal on my AK70mkII and had no luck. Well, it is a 3 months free trial, and it works on my Phone and PC fine, would be nice on the AK, but .....

    Astell & Kern AK70 MKII with dual DAC

    Is anyone using Bluetooth headphones? I had a pair but I can't get it to pair - if finds the headphones fine but sates that it can't pair with them. Cheers BT

    Astell & Kern AK70 MKII with dual DAC

    Finally bit the bullet and bought the AK70mkII today :-) I demo'd it for a long while, blow away by how good it sounded on my single ended headphones. I liked the sound of the Jr, but didn't like the lack of oher features so i sold it on. I wasn't planning on buying the AK70 but after listening...

    The New HIBY R3 II is here. 4.4MM Jack; Improved Sound and Bluetooth.

    I am looking to replace my Pono, one thing it excels in is gapless m FLAC to DSF/DFF - does the HiBy also support seamless palyback?

    Onkyo DP-S1 Rubato / Pioneer XDP-30R Private

    I am on the lookout for a replacement for my Pono, I love the Pono but its not portable as the battery is a bit shot so I use It wired at home. One thing that the Pono did very well we gapless, even with DSD,DSF files - something that I have found out to be lacking in other devices. Can anyone...

    Meet The FiiO M7: An Exynos 7270-Powered HiFi Music Player

    I just picked up my M7 this afternoon :) I jumped after reading that the M7 will playback SACD .ISO files, as long as they are DSD and not DTS format. Most of my SACD ISOs are DSD.but a few DTS scattered in there too. So i selected a bunch of ISOs that I had checked with FooBar were infact DSD...

    FiiO M9 , Android based Hi-Res smart DAP with 3.5/2.5 powerful output|AKM4490 X2 |WiFi|aptX/aptX HD/LDAC/HWA(LHDC)|USB DAC|USB AUDIO OUT

    Just a quick question about the M9 and SACD .iso files. In the past I have always ripped my SACD .iso files to DSF files and played them, can the M9 play directly from the .iso without the need to rip to DSF first?

    Astell & Kern Junior (AK Jr.) Impressions Thread

    So I bought the A&K jr two weeks ago, and I have to say that it has great SQ, but the lack of proper gapless is annoying. To be honest I couldn’t believe that it doesn’t work, on a device at this price point. I assume that there isn’t no ongoing fix in the offing? Sadly looks like it’s off to...

    The iBasso DX50 Thread - Latest firmware: 1.9.5 - June 30, 2016

    I have a problem that started this week: I select an album from 'album' menu and pick the first song on that list, it goes into playback and plays only that song before jumping back to the first song of the first album in in list? I have done a HR, and the problem persists. Also, after it plays...
