    Astell&Kern ACRO CA1000 Carriable Headphone Amp

    Yeah the title 'amp' doesn't work. The name is also a bit on the awkward side - when you use all ports, it looks more like an Astell & Kern Kraken 🤣 The sound really is nice. I listen to it whenever I have some time to relax and enjoy. They should've used another OS theme though... I mean it...

    Astell&Kern ACRO CA1000 Carriable Headphone Amp

    The reviews I saw / some posts about the device say it's a weird device that doesn't have a direct place to put it. Don't remember which reviews it were though - it was right before my first post on this thread, since the reviews made me more curious about it lol I really like it too. It has a...

    Astell&Kern ACRO CA1000 Carriable Headphone Amp

    That actually helped. I did a restart before, but the forced restart helped out. It's still weird though - say, could you also ask the dev team if they could change the gain level to be remembered depending on the headphones you select as output? It feels like a missed opportunity there - you...

    Also the latest version. I did a small video, but head-fi doesn't like video attachments. 😅

    Astell&Kern ACRO CA1000 Carriable Headphone Amp

    Ah, finally someone who could help ;) Thank you. I'm still a bit confused, since none of my other players sorts my albums (without any album artist) in "unknown". Then I will do my best to sort them...manually and album by album

    Astell&Kern ACRO CA1000 Carriable Headphone Amp

    That is weird, since I tried it again and can't. After you click on the icon you see the gain list - can you change them when you click on one? Because I can see the list, but the green check icon does not respond

    Astell&Kern ACRO CA1000 Carriable Headphone Amp

    @JasonNYC I also found another inconvenience - having plugged in two headphones, the amp section of the output select (dropdown in the notification center of android) isn't responding. You can see which amp you selected, but you have to unplug a headphone to be able to select the amp again. It...

    Jason confirmed that a few pages down - yes, he said that all A&K players stop charging and use the external power instead

    That would be great, since it works flawless on my SR25. Speaking of the SR25, I still hope we get the Crossfeed from the ACRO. It's a really nice feature and something forgotten over the years.

    Astell&Kern ACRO CA1000 Carriable Headphone Amp

    Anyway, in the end I bought the ACRO CA1000 and was able to test it out a few days. There are a bunch of things I should tell you @JasonNYC - the player crashed several times with my SSD attached directly to the data port of the DAP. By crash I mean: I went into the album view of the player...

    Astell&Kern ACRO CA1000 Carriable Headphone Amp

    @JasonNYC - I actually have a few questions. I couldn't find any info anywhere, so you could help out 😅 I was wondering if you could hook up an external HDD/SSD to the USB-C data port of the ACRO CA1000. "Data" could mean anything without a specification, so a direct info would help. The other...

    The Sony 40th Anniversary Walkman Thread

    Same here. I think that pretty much does exactly that. Say... Does anyone ever figured out how android works properly with a DAC? A few posts earlier someone said how much energy a DAC consumes / how fast the current charge of the walkman dies. After a million threads around the web and a...

    The Sony 40th Anniversary Walkman Thread

    I feel no lag at all. Actually I'm surprised at how much internal it feels lol When I tried an sd reader on my phone, it would just stutter and build up heat. But with the walkman it's non existing

    And I use a 512GB micro Sd from Samsung, so no worries.

    The Sony 40th Anniversary Walkman Thread

    I saw the same settings, but since I bought it a day after the latest update, I'm not sure if this is a new addition to the settings or not. For the battery another tip - use Greenify. It also works with non rooted devices, so it will help getting out more juice. :) Still I hope someone will...
