DX200=Affordable High End Audio. Dual ES9028Pro dacs. AMP1, AMP3, AMP5, AMP7 & AMP8 ***Firmware support now up for AMP9***
Thanks for the reviews! I'll try Xelento, but not sure about Falcon-C - I have XBA-Z5 and want to look more into some armature ears now, Xelento in this class seems more promising. The problem is that.. I want to continue (I have AK70MKI + XBA-Z5) expensive as I have some prejudice that...- sapfeer

DX200=Affordable High End Audio. Dual ES9028Pro dacs. AMP1, AMP3, AMP5, AMP7 & AMP8 ***Firmware support now up for AMP9***
Definitely does! I'm a newbie in HiFi and my tastes are not finally formed enough, so I'm asking what people like the most to try. Currently I'm looking for a clear detailed bodied sound with wide stage and a bit of air. AFAICS, DX200 gives the stage, detalization and air, so from ears...- sapfeer

Astell&Kern launches two new player lines at the High End Show 2018 in Munich, Germany
Can you please elaborate more on sound? I heard that because of the DAC it may sound even better than SE100. Did you like the stage and detalization?- sapfeer

New TOL A&K DAP : the AK Ultima SP1000
That's the problem here - I think now, as I have no experience carrying SP1000, that the sound worth the discomfort from the size and weight, but there is always a risk that in reality I find keeping it in pocket listening in overcrowded noisy subway not much better than other models, who knows...- sapfeer

Astell & Kern KANN - DAP with Massive Storage & Battery
Guys, can you call KANN sound warm? I really liked the sound of SP1000SS even with low-level ears (XBA-Z5), but I concerned about it's size, weight and whether it worth to get it for listening in subway.- sapfeer

New TOL A&K DAP : the AK Ultima SP1000
Thanks for such a detailed review! I never heard any of Sabre chips, just Cirrus Logic in AK70MKI, and do want to hear more about it, but to avoid off-top I suggest we move the right thread -...- sapfeer

New TOL A&K DAP : the AK Ultima SP1000
Can you please share your feelings about the stage. How did it feel like? Was it narrow or wide? You tried only cans of IEMs as well? I think the version you tried was not burned in enough to make the final conclusions on the moment, so that's why it seemed thin.- sapfeer

New TOL A&K DAP : the AK Ultima SP1000
I hear the difference between the two (and I heard the details were very different and the separation), but it wasn't WOW and it were in Z5. I'm more into that it was just because the fit as I'm very well used to them. I'll try to find EE distro to check, and next time will try UE as well, but...- sapfeer

New TOL A&K DAP : the AK Ultima SP1000
@bflat, I know that for sure, but there was literally no chain - SP1000SS-adapter (SE, BTW)-Utopia. The store I was listening in may have messed up with the adapter, but I hardly believe so. I tried some Westone as well, but only slightly, 'cause I had to go then and I believe they did something...- sapfeer

New TOL A&K DAP : the AK Ultima SP1000
It's something wrong with me guys... I've been using AK70 MKI + XBA-Z5 for little more than a year for now and decided to move on. Had auditioned SP1000SS with Utopia/JH13/JH16 for a while and didn't hear a thing. I took my SD card to Ultima and tried rock (The Rolling Stones - Terrifying, Muse...- sapfeer

New iRiver AK70
Hey guys, I can't figure out how to properly tag compilations - tried "Part of a compilation", "Album artist" and "Mixed artist", but all tracks are shown individually. Saw people don't have troubles in AK240 like here, but I still can't make mine show compilations as a single album.- sapfeer
