Just got mine today:beerchug:

Nice review Chris, as usual! I've had my AMP2 for about three weeks now, with burn-in of between 70 - 100hrs. I did post some very early take on the AMP2 and that largely still stands. This time using Beyer's DT1990 Pro to listen to various sections of a DSD64 recording of Rachmaninoff Piano...

Very early impression with the AM2. Slightly more body and space. A little bit less at the top end, however I suspect that will "open up" with a bit more burn-in. Seems not as analytical and more musical. Only very slightly more powerful. These are not night and day differences. At least...

Installed the new firmware for a couple of days now. Fixed all the problems I had in Android mode ( Gapless and order issues). However I have a new problem with Mango. Sometimes it cut off a few seconds of the beginning of a song the first time it is loaded. Anyone else got the same problem?

Thanks for creating this thread.     I experienced the popping noise in both Android and Mango mode.

I would say there is definitely audible differences, not necessary improvements.  After all, good and bad in sound is purely subjective.   First of all, they are both Bursons, there will be more similarities than differences.   When I compared the amp section only, using same cable out of my...

  That's a 2 million dollar question and I'm sure people can argue all day about it.  Why people pay big $$$ for usb cables?  Its 1's and 0's.

    Not hot, very stackable!  

To me, more responsive UI in Mango is a nice to have feature.  Sure its a premium priced piece of gear and it is expected to work perfectly.  It's UI is nowhere near as responsive as my X7.  However, all I'm interested in is the sound.  I'm not playing video games on it, nor do I fiddle with the...

Believe only support up to 24/192 and DSD 64 in wifi and USB A (at the front).  While USB B asynchronous is 32/768, DSD512.   Difference in SQ will depend on how good your ear is. 

My only complain with the old firmware is random popping noise when playing 24 bits flac's.  Since there doesn't seem to be a fix for that in this fw upgrade,  I think I will wait for the next update.

Hi Paul,   Tried with a different SD card and also the internal memory,  same result.  As for me, only 24/192 flac files has that problem.  Just a bit more information to help your diagnosis.  It gets better after a factory reset, and come back after a while.  May be after I turn off the...

Hi Paul,   Will switch to another card and give it a try.  As this is a random affair, will give it a couple days before I report back.   Also, I was trying to copy some files to the built-in memory to try, but was unable to do so.  Is there any trick about doing that?  I tried in Mango mode...

Got it working!   Thanks Lurker0.   Now need to wait for your mods!
