This is also nice...

Nice DAP! Not enough power? Aeon sure seems to like its power. I run it off a Schiit Asgard 3 which has a ton of power for the price. I'd like to hear it run off higher end amps though.

Nope...

Nope...

Oh wow, is that a metal band playing on the DAP? How's metal with Aeon closed?

I like its neutral signature, I like bass which is fast and detailed. Not the most engaging sound but I like it.

What's the going price for mint condition, lightly used Aeon Closed (1st version)? I never use mine and might put them up for sale in the 'for sale' forum.

The AFC and Black Label is my desert island combo. In other words, the last gear I would ever sell.

 

[Jearly410]

Completely agree. I could lose everything else as long as I have my AFC and ifi BL.

 

[ColdsnapBry]

Wow must be a good combo! Some day I will upgrade my Asgard 3 to something a little better for my AFO.

the legendary O2 is also good

Did anyone had any problems with the stock cable? I've purchased AFC this fall and gradually lost the right channel after light office use.

• Is it possible to repair? I think the problem is near the cup connector.
• Are there any inexpensive aftermarket alternatives?
• Is this covered by warranty? I've used the support form on danclarkaudio.com but received no response.

Had to revert back to my old hand-modded T50RP until I figure it out with the cable.

Do you have a multimeter to check if the signal lost in the cable or not?

I do not have the tool, but swapping cup connections points to the cable problem.

Then you need a soldering iron)

It should be easy enough to fix. I would try to source a couple of the plugs though, they are filled with an epoxy-like substance that is impossible to remove, at least the player end is so I would assume the headphone end is too.

The wires are easy to work with, I removed the 3.5mm plug and replaced it with this:

Don't hesitate to call or email for support. If the problem changes sides when you reverse the L/R cables on the headphone then you're correct, it's the cable. We're happy to cover this, as it sounds like a clear warranty issue. info@danclarkaudio.com
