Hi, has anyone got an arrow they'd be willing to part with? I owned one ages ago and sold it, but have a hankering for one again, for portable use... 🙂- jhog

The all new Continental Dual Mono
This is incredibly helpful, thanks! Do you know what the specification of the CDM charging port is? Is it a standard 3.5mm? Can't seem to find it written down anywhere...- jhog

The all new Continental Dual Mono
This is really great intel, at least as a possible last resort. I've also ordered a (much cheaper) 12.6v 1a charger, but my fear is that the connector will be wrong for the CDM (it looks slightly too big in the picture...) Will let you know. I agreeb with yky that not knowing when the CDM is...- jhog

The all new Continental Dual Mono
Will be interesting to hear. My understanding from this thread and other sources is that you you need a charger for li-io batteries, not an actual charger for the device. 12.6v, 1.5a, I don't know about the size of the plug into the device, if it's standard or proprietary. I've also emailed ALO...- jhog

Vorzüge VorzAMP PURE II - review and impressions
I've never heard the Pure but I've owned the original Duo for years. I absolutely love it, but I wouldn't really recommend it for what you're planning. For portable power and SQ the vorzuge amps are hard to beat, but for the money for a desktop or even transportable amp I think you'll get a...- jhog

Any love for the Activo CT10?
I'm still pretty fond of the sound that comes out of my CT10, it's better than my Sony Xperia 1iii smartphone from the HO, so it's not entirely obsolete as a device i wouldn't say. On the other hand the abject battery life and the tiny screen are definite friction points. I'm curious to know...- jhog

The all new Continental Dual Mono
If still of interest, I owned the WA8 a while back and have recently managed to get my hands on the CDM. Here are some very unscientific thoughts on the two: the WA8 was an utterly impulsive pandemic purchase, and i absolutely loved the sound quality, esp. on 3 tube configuration with full sized...- jhog

Astell & Kern KANN - DAP with Massive Storage & Battery
Quick question - is the original Kann a viable option in 2022 if you plan to use it only for music from an SD card (and you get it for a seriously reduced price?). Barring Tidal compatibility, which isn't a live issue for me, are there other gremlins to watch out for? I currently own an Activo...- jhog

Headstage Arrow HE: Reviews, Impressions, Perceptions & Sensations
Random request, but don't suppose anyone in the EU (or further afield) has a Headstage Arrow in good working order that they want to part with? I owned it once and slightly miss it and would be happy to rescue one from someone's drawer/shelf/cupboard. Hit me up if of interest 😊- jhog
