It clicks on when a sound is present and clicks off when its gone...Its a hifi DAC and is natural to behave like this. I'm running it via an old PC running on XP(lol) only 2 gigs of RAM...And absolutely no click during a track whatsoever...Even on DSD 5.6 tracks. And yes the windows sounds make...

If there sometimes is sound sometimes not, it cold be the muting relays. Thats not a thing I can tell without first looking on the inside. You should send it to a service person.

Its not a malfunction. The unit wont turn the line out/pre out off when headphones' jack inserted. You should turn off your active speakers or turn their volume down.

If you really want to drive 650s with a portable thing...think about a hefty dac/amp like sony pha3...Even the mojo cant drive them at their best.

I have the 650 and used to have the Jr. The 2V output of the Jr. is not sufficient enough to drive them specially with lower gain recordings.

Yes its a bit on the awkward side...Chord generally is from another planet ;))

Not the Mojo?

Easily...But make sure you're using a good one.

That faux wood CD tray doesn't look too good...

From my understanding of the Astell's behavior...No absolutely not...

You think an update will add a mic to the player??

I suspect they are region dependent. Not all v10s sound the same in terms of output power...I faced this issue long time ago with portable sony products...Nearly all same models made for sale in european union had lesser power output. Maybe thats the case with v10 too?

Miles better...

Thank you so much for the quick reply..And all I need is a matching USB type B to micro USB adapter? And so does it with an iphone with the lightening to camera adapter? Then it plays all the formats like DSD for example from mobile phone?   Sorry., Thanks again

Guyz., It might have been asked before...But Can I hook up this DAC to an android device via USB OTG? I mean the back port(type b)   Thank you so much

Thank you so much So with headset attached in music mode  with the on screen slider you can do from 0-to75 but with vol keys you do 15x5 steps..Did I get that right?

Guyz; I've read lots of good reviews about this phone specially the SQ..I'm about to replace my 6s with this one..But there are some questions before sell my iphone: On GSM Arena review they mentioned the volume has 75 steps while in the review on the first page of this thread it stated the=at...

Or probably his creative cant take 2V output of the jr? I had this problem when I was trying to hook up my jr to my fiio e17k. The fiio cant take more than 1.5v rms Besides I didn't experience any distortion when I was trying to connect my Jr to my hifi amp with the Jr's vol set to max or on...

Yeah, but I found the sound is a bit too on the neutral side. The sub bass and airy vocals on jr are absent on ak100ii. But 100ii has much better eq if you're the fan of... Looking forward for the new AK300 finger crossed...

Well I tried AK100ii after my above post..lol. And No, its no worth...The UI, display and performance are a lot better but SQ is not that fun as the Jr. ... Just more flat spectrum and thats it. Actually the interests in this thread shows how good the 100ii would sound...LOLs

Mine sold...

Yeah...In the name of science;)

Is it worth switching from AK Jr. to the AK100ii? I mean is the sound quality will be $400 better than the Jr.?   Thanks

So I was about to.sell my Jr. and buy the ak100ii due to the lags...But now am thinking keep it for a while, waiting for astell to shoot a new fw. And take a listen to the 100ii before making another stupid purchase. Thanks again

So in general both units sound good but in diffrent way? Thanks
