  Have you got the Yggdrasil or Explorer2 working? Would you mind sharing what you changed from your previous unsuccessful attempts?

Thanks. Are the Gungnir and Yggdrasil still not responding with the A1401 12W iPad 3 charger?

  Turn the charger over ;-)   Isn't the iPad 3 USB-A to 30-Pin, not Lightning?   http://www.apple.com/power-adapters/   https://support.apple.com/HT202105   https://support.apple.com/HT201471

aptX HD has just been announced by Qualcomm, available on the CSR8675 Bluetooth SoC, allowing wireless transmission with a 24-bit depth and unknown sample rate (hopefully 192kHz).  ...

  Big thanks for this comparison.   In comparison to their portable peers in a similar price bracket, it's a shame that, unlike the Cozoy Aegis and presumably forthcoming Shozy / Cozoy device that Amos Barnett / @Currawong tested, the Slim and HD do not forgo the need for Camera Connection...
