  Thank you. I got to try it myself so I can believe against logic.

What does the mean?

I would be careful with things like the lifetime of the data and how many writes it will take before dying.

update on the 1TB memory generic card, after 2 hours of loading lots of music for my AK320 it suddenly erased half the music loaded on it.this card also blanked out my whole ak320 screen. i shut down unload memory card rebooted & load songs, all is well and played all internal music stored on ak320.  NO BUENO, fake fake fake and not good!!!! TOTALLY GARBAGE 1TB GENERIC MEMORY CARD FROM EBAY. got a full refund today and seller said no return of the card.keep it.   i am going to buy a genuine sandisk 200GB micro memory card. 
 
true fact(my experience), a wise chinese man once told me,"cheap things is NOT good & good things are NOT cheap."

The biggest micro sd card available today is 200 GB, anything bigger than that is fake.End of year we will see 512 GB ones.
So guys save your money and don't buy useless fake cards.

  With all the comments on 1.23 looks like I do not need to advocate for SQ change this time

 Now I'm curious how regular AK380 compares to Cu under 1.23.
 
Re 1TB micro SD card, it's like someone selling you plane ticket to Mars - anyone who pays attention to technology news would know it's nothing but scam at this stage. A lot fake SD cards got 8GB capacity btw.

Please we would all really love to hear your feeling on the SQ difference between 1.19 and 1.23.

Hi speed, just grab it. Reminds me of the energizer bunny ad that how the bunny was all lethargic and became hyper after putting in energizer batteries; 1.23 is like the energizer batteries. Music is really powerful now (not driving power) even on low gain. 1.23 trumps previous versions by miles that AK380 has become a whole new player running it - I call it pseudo-AK480

mmm........1.23 vs. 1.19 380 cu - no difference in SQ that I can hear. As per firmware notes, AK changed the EQ settings and U.I. .I don't use the EQ and, if ever, it would be only the Pro EQ that I use (a touch less brightness in presentation).

Hi, I just got my AK320 replacing 120II, I wait my UM mentor universal but also the Hifiman X Edition ! So I ask myself the question of quality that I can have with the amplifier AK380 mainly for listening to Edition-x ..?

thats what i expected as well

  I'd love to know how they achieve the SQ you get using Pro EQ.  I've tried to duplicate it a few times and can't come anywhere close to the Pro SQ.  Maybe it's not a true EQ setting, but somehow boosted on the board.

 
 
I`ve often suspected the same regarding the AKT5p EQ : it widens the soundstage in a dramatic way, that I can`t replicate with my own fiddling.

That was exactly how the seller reacted to my complaint: full refund and no need to return the card.  It`s a flat out scam.

Even when widely reported, it might not be real (I am still waiting )

Any 380 users noticing a slightly faster drain on the battery after the FW update?

The only real info I got from inside is that we will see a 256Gb from Sandisk at the end of the year, anything else related to bigger capacities is not real to me.
Today the biggest micro SD available is from Sandisk and is a 200Gb
Microdia seems legit but their sales guy seems fishy, the 256GB is not even available now and he talk 512GB...

380 + AK AMP, Anyone else notice with the new firmware that between the PRO EQ & EQ off is kind of a similar SQ. Having said that does that mean they updated the SQ with the EQ off as well? It seems to me they have. Still torn with what to stay with Pro EQ or EQ off. I always had EQ off to begin with. Since this this new update the SQ as I stated in recent post is much more fuller and the bass is puncher! Best update so far AK!
