The questions are: Since when is it known that ver. 1.65 has a bug? Is this bug not known to astell&kern? Don't they have time to fix this bug? Doesn't astell&kern know how to fix this bug? Do astell&kern not care about the users? questions opon questions Upgrading is the solution and not...

At my side v. 1.66 are running. With the older versions everything was fine. BTW, fix error means fix a bug and doesn't make it worse, right? (English isn't my native language) But that means that astell&kern can reverse this this fix and all will be alright, great. Cheers

Almost forget to say thanks to sonicblue03 to share this "hopefully" short needed solution. I would never have thought of correcting this muffled sound with the DAC filter. Speaking of the sound quality, it is somehow possible to reprogram the equalizer so that the standard setting is used as...

Have the same problem, Astell&Kern please fix this. And I thought I had something on my ears, or the channels in my InEars are clogged. Cheers

Hi kel77, You're absolutely right, the Tag "Album Artist" separates the 2 albums with the same name. Thanks man you're the only one (since nearly 2 years) who had an workable solution. I tagged my songs now from the beginning without "Album Artist" and with all Mp3-players (Apple, Sony...

Hi kel77, thanks for your info, but I don't know what6i did wrong in my tags (see attached fotographs) I Tag all my titles in the same way (for centuries), I fotograph an other example, there you can see the thumbnail from an Buddy Guy album (Rhythm&Blueslwith the same name. When I start this...

Dear JasonNYC, I have one suggestion which A&K might can fix with the next firmware, at least for the SP1000M. The bug is, if there exist 2 (or more) albums with the same name they will A) listed under one/same album (see attached fotograph) B) the same thumbnail will shown in the Album list...

Hi, everyone and specialy A&K (JasonNYC) Update for SP1000M, very good. Then I hope that they solve the following confusions too: 1st: in the folder section (internal/external storage) you can delete the artist and/or album folder permanently, but not under the artist/album section directly...

Sauce code = black humor I couldn't hold back when I see what we got after a year of development. I only mean, if a player costs € 200 and the company throws a new device onto the market every six months, then I can't expect to get 6 updates per year (and that over several years), but a + €...

If this If this a joke I don't understand him. Anyway, stay healthy.

Dear Astell&Kern, Subject: SP 1000m Thanks for the new firmware, 50 weeks after the last update. Just kidding, not only did it take almost a year, the jump is so small that it can be described as almost measly. It makes you cry. But I'll keep it like Neil Armstrong "It's a big step for me...

Hi, now there is no update for the 2.5 YEAR (Release date) old SP1000M anymore? Is the device too old or is there nothing more to improve anymore? I don't hope that the philosophy of Astell & Kern is to end the support of such expensive devices after only 1.5 years. Cheers

Thanks for the fast response Jason, then let us wait and hope.

Hello everybody (especially Jason), one question, do anyone know when the sp1000m will get the next firmware. The last is from Apr 07, 2020 (10 months ago). I know, Corona etc., but.... (for example homework, the SR25 got a firmware this year ) .. or is this device too old? Cheers

Jason, since we are currently exchanging our information, I have another request. Can A&K keep an eye on the following bug: Albums with the same name are listed under an album in the album list. In the artist directory tree you can only see the thumbnail of the first album that was copied to the...

Then we ( i ) hope A&K/iriver give us ( me ) the chance to choose. Like i say, in the player it's been deleted, not after I plugged in the windows10 laptop, there I still can see the (empty) album folder No matter, I can only report what I have noticed. If this is not reproducible or is not...

I have no knowledge of Apple (I only use only an very old ipod and iTunes and there it's only possible to sort by alphabet), but in the android ecosystem it's possible to give the chance to according your will (A&K OS is based on Android). Of course, I can give only an suggestion to improve (a...

Ok, maybe the directory tree is gone when you delete a album in the player an check the directory tree in an Mac. I'm using an HP laptop with Windows10 and this my result (as you can see at the pictures) : Pic1: check what i want to delete Pic2: the player is deleting Pic3: the album is...

Astell & Kern is a subcompany of iriver, I hope they have the manpower and knowledge to include the option to select in which order the albums show up in the player.

This procedure you mention above it's right that the songs will delete. If you check the box for delete the hole album or artist they will delete in the player too (you don't see them anymore there, that's right). BUT NOT if i open a file manager in der laptop (I'm using a windows laptop, I...

Of course it's possible to delete something via PC/Mac (and there the structure will delete), but there is also the possibility to delete in the player and then the structure remains. Of course it's possible to add in a tag editor the year in front of the album, but that would be a hell of...

Hi @JasonNYC, can I request for 3 software improvements? 1st: that A&K give us the chance to decide in which way the albums below the artist been sorted (by alphabet or by year) 2nd: when I delete an artist or an album directory structure remain in the player. Is it possible change the...

The sound is very good, no doubt, I just want to tweak the sound because of one pair of my ciem's. Anyway, I guess there isn't any APP which I can use, right? Since 1 or 2 firmwares it's not possible anymore to install the neutron player where the tweaking was close to my ideas Cheers!

Hi, a question about the EQ. If I set the EQ to manual, in my opinion, the quality is extremely poor, is there a setting that corresponds to the standard setting of A&K? The sound setting from A&K is great in principle, I just want to change some frequencies. I hope that someone can help me...

Manly I'm using my sp1000m and actually I can plug in and out the connector very easily. I'm only worry about that this cause a quality drop.
