Astell & Kern SR25: The next A&norma player
. I had this problem two times on my sr25 MkII in one and half year. Another owner told that he had to change the battery 3 times. So be prepared to change it regularly. Battery charge management is not smart on the sr25. The player heats up during charging, which would be understandable if...- luckexplorer

Astell & Kern SR25: The next A&norma player
I see you have Sony XM5 headphones. Check their autonomy regularly. I have the xm4 and like thousands of users the autonomy of one of the earphones drops to 10 minutes after one or two years. Sony does not cover repairs outside the warranty period. If one of your headphones is hot when you take...- luckexplorer

Astell & Kern SR25: The next A&norma player
Another battery replacement for my SR25 MKII. The battery has swollen again. I am extremely disappointed with Astell & Kern. I'm tired of sending my DAP back to Germany for repairs. And then I'll have to pay when there's no warranty. Other people are talking about 3 battery replacements on the...- luckexplorer

Astell&Kern A&norma SR25 MK II - Available November 2021
You had this problem twice in a row?! Ok, so I have to get used to the risk of it happening again. It's probably the battery that swelled up (It happened on the first iphones). It's related to battery manufacturing defects: the supplier reduces the quality level to be able to produce more. It is...- luckexplorer

Astell & Kern KANN - DAP with Massive Storage & Battery
Hi JasonNYC, the May 21, 2021 you wrote it. It is the 5th of July so will there be another option than Mconnect or not ? why not make your own app on iOS, android and web application as Bluesound does for example ? Mconnect is very slow and not very ergonomic.- luckexplorer

Astell & Kern KANN - DAP with Massive Storage & Battery
The problem with the Kann player is that it is not more supported by A&K. Due to not enough ram, the player can't play directly all the stream services you want (only Tidal is available on the Kann). Kann alpha and cube can do it. Nethertheless you can use stream service with the Kann by using a...- luckexplorer

Astell & Kern KANN - DAP with Massive Storage & Battery
Hello, on IOS (perhaps on Android to), you can use an iPhone with mConnect or an iPad with mConnect HD. The two devices must be setup with the same wifi network. The Kann must have Ak connect on. In mConnect you will have the ability to select the Kann player (UPNP devices in Play to). Select...- luckexplorer
