The price might also not be a good indication, maybe they recalibrate their offerings to compete with the pretty well received models from iBasso, Fiio and others.
Depending on the market conditions they can go for lower number of devices sold at high margins or higher number of device sold at lower margins. The goal is always to maximise profit.
Pardon, which daps from fiio and dx300. Compete with sp2000?
Oh you probably mean m17 and 300max. Id say they are different category though

@JasonNYC What SoC? RAM?
System on a Chip.

It’s pretty much just like our smartphones where everything in integrated in one chip. So the CPU, GPU, and RAM for example are all in one chip.


Edit: Ignore my “I just woke up” comment 😂
I was wondering why someone was asking what an SoC is. I totally misunderstood what you meant.

I think he meant to ask what chip are used, Is it snapdragon or Exynos or Mediatek …etc..
Oh my bad 😂 ignore my comment

I just woke up and I’m just catching up on the threads.

Have they not mentioned it yet?

Not sure. As it is the start of Chuseok or the Harvest Moon Festival in Korea for the next few days, I probably will not hear back until they return to work after the holiday. I assume the CPU is a Samsung Exynos, which is what CPU is used in every other octa-core AK player, but I do not know for sure.

Was hoping she will have it next to sp2000 to compare size and thickness.
It does look huge...as DX300, R8, M8 and SP2000. 🤷‍♂️

I really liked the SR15 and SP1000M sizes. Great balance there.

Lol you really just compared dx300 to sp2000? If all flagships were the size of sp2000 i would not be complaining
Lol fair enough.
