    How does this compare to SP3k in terms of sound?

    Astell&Kern A&futura SE180 - The First Modular DAP from Astell&Kern

    Yes, can agree. I also turn On and Off the DAR, sounds different too. Now im enjoying SEM4. So weird with audio, best to have options. Our brain will get used to the same thing and eager to get a new one instead of changing the modules.

    Astell&Kern A&futura SE180 - The First Modular DAP from Astell&Kern

    I just tried a longer listening BT sink mode but now using SEM4. Dynamically, it's a night and day improvement over the direct sound. Kinda weird. I can hear tons of details in BT sink mode than the regular. LMAO

    Does the BT sink mode sound the same with all SEM modules?

    Astell&Kern A&futura SE180 - The First Modular DAP from Astell&Kern

    Today, first time i tried 2.5mm output from SE180, i think this is by far the best output among the three. It is really really good!

    I did multiple A B comparison, and i can confirm the PRaT is really the difference here. What a finding.

    No DSP no nothing. Currently im feeling that SoC play a role as a source. SE180 SoC is not good which lead to these differences. The noticeable differences are; definition, transients, dynamic, imaging accuracy. It's like there's no compression in sound compare to the stock SE180.

    Im experiencing some weird situation where the SE180 sounds significantly better in USB DAC mode, connected to my phone via usb C cable. Is there any reason why?

    Anyone wanna trade his SEM3 to SEM4? I have SEM4 and it's not my preference. I like SEM1 more and SEM3 should be what i should get.

    Unique Melody Bone Conduction Family (MEST&MEXT and their siblings) Announcement and Impression Thread.

    Imo, these are all top of the line with different flavors IEM reached its peak. However, i haven't listened to the Subtonic Storm which claimed to be as close as 2 channel speaker system. Which i hardly believe it can replicate those. I own a treated room with 2.1 channel. Not a single iem...

    Unique Melody Bone Conduction Family (MEST&MEXT and their siblings) Announcement and Impression Thread.

    Dont think the current sub $500 beats MEST OG. Tonally up to preference but technically MEST OG is stronger. Im talking from experience, ive heard all of those mega5est, and all. Im considered lucky, near to shop which can demo 99% of stuff as well as a friend of reviewers. And also in an...
