Astell & Kern Kann MAX
Having used it for some weeks it's a disappointment. Not the music, which is great when paired with my IE900s, but the interface. Constantly stalling and needing restarting. For an expensive piece of kit, the UI is prehistoric.- stephenm22

Astell & Kern Kann MAX
Tidal support were very helpful. Upshot was clear the cache, log out, log in. Delete the app and reload it. Took all weekend though, as then all my music had to upload again and the wireless capability is poor. That said I'm really pleased overall. The Kann Max, Sennheiser IE900, and Tidal...- stephenm22

No @nephilim32 ... I have all my files in the Downloaded category, and Tidal settings direct downloads to the SanDisk. When I go into Downloaded to play, only Playlists playback when I'm not connected to wireless. For some reason Albums won't play, it says I need a connection- stephenm22

@JasonNYC ... I subscribe to Tidal premium and stream when I'm near good wireless. When I'm travelling, I listen offline to the music on the Sandisk. This worked fine on my DX240 iBasso. On my new Kann Max only playlists work and not albums. It's very weird.- stephenm22

I download my music to a SanDisk Extreme card on my player in order I can listen when I'm offline on my commute. For some reason all the Playlists I have downloaded play with no problem. But Albums will not play, I get No Connection. Tap to Refresh. What is the issue? - they are both downloaded...- stephenm22

DX240 DAP. DAC ES9038PRO - NEW: AMP8MK2S .****** NEW Firmware! 2.01 *******
The help received above was great and I’ve been listening to my collection. What a massive improvement. My first setup after my iPhone was Fiio BTR7 and Fiio FA7S IEMs. It was too messy to have the phone and the DAC. Being new to this, I’m wondering if the IEMs are good enough for the DX240? I...- stephenm22

Tidal storage on ibasso DX240
I bought this excellent DAP with the intention of downloading Tidal master recordings for offline listening. I have the Tidal app installed and it has filled up the internal drive. These files play ok, really pleased. To download more, I bought a Sandisk micro sd. It is formatted ok and the...- stephenm22

One more question please. Downloaded my Tidal music and filled in internal disk. Added a microSD and it formatted ok. But now I can’t find it in the software, I can’t see how to download to it. Any clues please?- stephenm22

It may be an operating system issue. I have got as far as the Google Play Store app in APK Pure, but when pressing INSTALL, nothing happens.- stephenm22

Could someone help me with my brand new DX240, please? I have logged into my Google account on the device. If I try and download the Tidal app through the preinstalled APK app, I get a downloading message, but no download happens. If I go through Chrome to the Tidal app in Google Play, it tells...- stephenm22

Astell & Kern Kann MAX
I bought the Kann Max yesterday. Was getting used to it and looking to download the Tidal app through Open APP Services. A problem has occurred with WiFi. While the Kann Max successfully connected to my high speed home wifi, it has started to switch itself off. I can go to the wifi settings and...- stephenm22

DAP or DAC Advice For Newbie
Thank you everyone. I went with the FiiO BTR7 Amp and FiiO FA7S in ear. Remarkable difference from my wireless `Sony and Sennheiser buds when using Tidal Masters. I'm very pleased.- stephenm22

DAP or DAC Advice For Newbie
I haven't tried any IEMs, even though I live in London there are next to no places that have them in stock to try, it's pretty much all online sales. Hi-fi stores in the area have over-ear stuff, which isn't really for me out of home- stephenm22
