$999 Calyx M with DXD + DSD, 64GB + SD + µSD storage
Feb 21, 2014 at 8:25 PM Post #1,262 of 6,549
  As we progress and yearn for information I am hearing less and less. My inquiries to Calyx go unanswered. I wonder if this is going to be another case of vaporware. Maybe the interest at CES wasn't strong enough? Just speculating but might go x5 for now due to lack of company communications.

 
With all the design changes and the release date two months away, they might be busy with more important things than answering your emails. Just a guess.

I share your concerns:

but Calyx are evidently determined to proceed with a sliding volume control, in spite of the potential dangers. I can only hope there is some kind of failsafe feature, but I am not optimistic about this.

My C4 has an ALPS sliding volume....it's precise and slick....don't worry, you'll like it :wink:

I am keeping an eye on this thread as I am in the market for a new DAP. If they do an international promotion similar to the one they are doing for Korea I will most likely get the Calyx M otherwise I will get either the Fiio X5 or iBasso DX90.
The waiting is killing me.

Having heard the AK240 yesterday, I don't anticipate that the Calyx-M will have any problem at least matching its SQ.

do you mean you did not like the AK240's SQ ?
