Agree with @szore great review. In the middle of reading it I had to take a break since my SP1000M arrived - the Lapis Blue version. In process of setting it up now!

That' so cool! Relish it!Agree with @szore great review. In the middle of reading it I had to take a break since my SP1000M arrived - the Lapis Blue version. In process of setting it up now!

Would an M be more lovely than a Z?
Don't forget to burn it in for at least 200 hours before you get the best sound!Agree with @szore great review. In the middle of reading it I had to take a break since my SP1000M arrived - the Lapis Blue version. In process of setting it up now!
Letting it "burn" as I type this. I hope it can "feel the burn!"
The Z is lemon scented.Would an M be more lovely than a Z?
Here's a little something for the new APK Services of A&K capable players and Tidal subscribers that I just discovered with Tidal sideloaded version 2.11.4. The Tidal generated My Mix Playlists now show up under the "My Collection" section. Previously, there was a workaround using the desktop app I employed to stream them from either the built-in A&K Tidal app or the sideloaded version; and to download them on the sideloaded app. But it's easy to now download on the sideloaded app (v2.11.4) all on the A&K DAP, directions are below:
1. Go to the My Mix section
2. Click on the desired My Mix playlist
3. Click on "+ Create playlist"
4. The "Add to Playlist" dialogue will appear, click on "Create New Playlist" at the bottom
5. The "Create New Playlist" name dialogue will appear, and default to "My Mix (number)" All the My Mix Playlist tracks will appear as well
6. Either accept the recommended name or create you own and the click "Create" and the playlist is created with all the My Mix Playlist tracks from that My Mix
7. To download for offline listening, to "My Collection" and "Playlists". Click on the playlist, and in the playlist, toggle on the download switch.
This works for both the SR15 and the SP1000M. I'll assume it will also work on the SP1000 since the interface is identical to the SP1000M.
And I'm running the latest A&K firmware on both the SR15 (1.14) and SP1000M (1.17CM)
1. Go to the My Mix section
2. Click on the desired My Mix playlist
3. Click on "+ Create playlist"
4. The "Add to Playlist" dialogue will appear, click on "Create New Playlist" at the bottom
5. The "Create New Playlist" name dialogue will appear, and default to "My Mix (number)" All the My Mix Playlist tracks will appear as well

Different flavors, compatible

Hi, this is confusing to me...
My Mix, where? In Tidal? I dont see anything like that (But i'm not good with Tidal, just started using it).
Tidal sideloaded version 2.11.4.... My version of Tidal side is 2.9.14, and its the latest, so I'm confused! (but intrigued...)

@szore I posted some clarifying info and pictures over in the AK Ultima SP1000 thread in order to move the info from the A&K sponsor announcements thread. Sorry about that @JasonNYC , I had a couple of threads going at once.

Hi all, anyone fortunate enough to have heard/own both this and the Cayin N8?
Would love to hear your thoughts.
Also what is the best pairing with this DAP?

Just got the SPKM Onyx Black over the weekend.
Buyer’s remorse kicked in pretty fast but every time I plugged into it, the whole world just seems to melt away.
I’ve got a noob question though. Any credible sites to buy Chinese FLAC files?
