    The Astell & Kern AK120

    My AK120 Titan can't see the full contents of a 512gb card.

    SONY NW-ZX500

    Dunno what the consensus is on sound quality, but if anyone is interested in trading their ZX500 for a WM1A then give me a PM :). Have less time for critical listening these days but more time for long lonesome walks.

    SONY NW-ZX500

    Hi Guys If using streaming apps, does the ZX507 resample redbook content from 44.1khz to 48khz? Don't really care about hi-rez but resampling regular content is a bit rubbish (my Onkyo DAP used to do this) Thanks!

    Shanling M6 Player - New version with ESS DACs coming soon

    Is the M6 silent with sensitive iem's like Andromeda? Liked the M0 so much I am interested in this, looking for a player with offline tidal one day...

    Campfire Audio - Introducing 2 new models Hello Andromeda and Nova

      Definitely yes it does.   If you look at Andromeda reviews, invariably they praise the Litz cable compared to the Tinsel cable due to ergonomics.

    I guess you missed the Front Page post recently proclaiming how great their tacky wood veneer material is?

    Yep I'm not. I want to use my balanced headphone currently with 4.4mm balanced cable on single ended device with regular 3.5mm jack.

    Is anybody selling a 4.4mm to 3.5mm SE adapter at the moment? Kinda annoying to have to swap cable to listen to every other device in the world.

    SONY NW-WM1Z / WM1A

      Just to add, I also really like 1A with Kimber Kable and Andro. Also, while I think it is better than ZX2, it is probably not significantly better, and also you lose a lot of possible functions such as streaming apps, etc.   I never bought the ZX2 so decision was easy for me, but I probably...

    With Andromeda I agree. WM1A is definitely a superior pairing.

    Campfire Audio - Introducing 2 new models Hello Andromeda and Nova

    Well I really like the mojo, but it does not excel in its pairing with the andro. On technicalities in general the mojo is probably similar or slightly behind but the tonality and blacker background of the Sony blows it away in this particular pairing. The Mojo perhaps inches ahead on depth of...

      Just want to echo my agreement on this.   Have the Andro as well as a WM1A and Mojo, and the WM1A is far superior pairing for the Andromeda.

    SONY NW-WM1Z / WM1A

      Well I'm finding it a pain, certainly much more resistance in the cables than the others I have (Campfire Litz cable, Fidue balanced cable, UE900 cables).   Maybe you are used to nice, super thick fancy expensive cables? Haha.

    Not very impressed with the official Sony 4.4mm MMCX cable. Has probably the worst memory and microphonics of any IEM cable I've ever used.

    Campfire Audio - Introducing 2 new models Hello Andromeda and Nova

      I make sure the earpieces don't touch each other while in case now as they very quickly developed some small dings while using the supplied case.   I've seen some used CFA stuff, including Andros, with real bad paint chipping, so if you want to keep them looking new I would be pretty...

    SONY NW-WM1Z / WM1A

    I got a WM1A yesterday but it didn't read my 200gb micro SD card that I had been using in other players.   Is there any tips on format or can the player format it so that it can read correctly?   It went through the building database screen but then ended up without finding songs.

    Campfire Audio - Introducing 2 new models Hello Andromeda and Nova

        I e-mailed Campfire Audio recently and they said they can't offer their Litz cables without the memory wire. They said that the memory wire is within the moulded plastic as well, which is why it's very difficult to remove! It looks like the Ref 8 would have the same build judging from the...

    They don't seem willing to address the distortion on 3rd party apps issue either. Would not recommend an onkyo device at all. Support has been very poor on all the issues I have tried to contact them about.

      There is no way to change it at this point. Hopefully Onkyo will update and fix it but not holding my breath.   For Tidal you can stream using USB Audio Player Pro which can bypass the android upsampling.
