Focal Utopia General Discussion
Hi guys, sorry if I confused you with the 2:00 song time stamp, and usage of this/that articles ... english isn't my native language ;) I tried the Bjork song (24bits flac) I mentionned with 3 amps: Woo Audio WA5 (tried all the gain/impedance settings), Hugo TT, and also iBasso DX200 portable...- monkkx

May I ask you the type of music you usually listen to? I do not hear any clipping on say an accoustic jazz double bass ... but definitly on synthetized ones as on Bjork's tune- monkkx

Focal Utopia General Discussion
Hi all, I have the Utopia, and although it sound fabulous, there's an issue I had and I'd like to know if it's an isolated one or not ... The first pair of utopia I had had been returned, because there was some serious bass clipping at loud but listenable volume. I noticed it on Bjork's tune...- monkkx

Audiophiles in Dubai?
Hello, for sale: - Little Dot MK IV SE Tube Headphone Amplifier / Pre-amplifier (AED 1300). The amp has been used only a couple of hours, and the burn-in of the tubes is not even finished. The amp is pretty much like new, and still under warranty. It's a great little head-amp...- monkkx

In my experience, iBasso will send using fastest courier service, as soon as you give them the tracking number of the returned device. I did not had to wait more than a few days to receive a replacement. The thing is once you start listening to it, it's pretty addictive :)- monkkx

I believe I was the first t mention here the phantom swipe issue on my Dx200, after contacting Paul, I received a replacement unit very very quickly. The replacement unit had another issue (bricked device), and again after contacting Paul, I received a new replacement unit, received even before...- monkkx

Hi all, I'm not sure if it's been raised already but when browsing Artists in Mango pure player, we get the list of albums from selected Artist. In Android player, we get all tracks instead of the albums. It makes browsing an artist/album difficult. Is it a bug? Is there a setting to change...- monkkx

I had extreme and severe lag, and after troubleshooting with Paul, we came to the conclusion that my device is defective and it's been returned for exchange. It's obviously an isolated issue.- monkkx

No I didn't rolled back the firware and won't even try (I already had the issue with previous FW). My feeling is that my unit is either having major hardware issue, or maybe slightly off-range calibration which could be solved by a firmware. If next FW can't solve it, I'll return it, simple ...- monkkx

Even though I'm pissed off being the bummy user, I'm pretty sure this is an isolated issue (bummy me, right?) ... My unit is literaly unuseable, no matter what I do (upgrade FW, Factory Reset, clean screen ....). If it was a common issue, indeed none of the early adopters would have made any...- monkkx

Here's a video I've just made, with firmware 1.3.60. At 0:30. One can see what I call the "bufered gesture crazyness". It's very ennoying to say the least ...- monkkx
