OK. Received my Balanced Silver Dragon v2 from Moon Audio. Takes the experience to a new level indeed. Clarity, seperation, smoothness, and vocals are all improved. Drums are outstanding! I have the base set at 2PM, which is not flat at all. However, it's fun for me :). I'm not well versed in audio reviews so I can't be as detailed as I would like. Hope this may help.

Hey guys questions about new AK ripper,,
It appears you can rip three speeds,,
What is the highest file bit rate can you rip cd s?
Hopefully asking right newbie here
Early Kann owner loving player
Thx
The ripper will rip CDs as a FLAC or Wave, but only will only rip to 16/44.1. It will not up convert to a different bit rate.

Hi,

Did you notice a problem with the AK Kann player's battery ? My player was purchased in mid June , for a few days I see the battery falling from 100% to 71% in one hour of listening on Bowers Wilkins P7 headphones.

Regards
Bartosz
Have not faced any issue like yours so far.

Hi, one quest about song names. Kann gives me a different song when I try to choose which song I'd like it to play through folders function. But I noticed it only does that to my MicroSD card. Any advice?

Suggest you shut off the Kann and remove the card. Then insert the card and start the Kann. Let Kann read the card & its library and then try. I hope it helps.

How long is your kann plays on flac files , my model for full discharge needs only about 9h and 50 min.
I too get about 10 hours but not like what is given by A&K on paper.

Podcasts? I use my Kann exclusively for HD music, but I sometimes like to listen to a podcast, and it'd be nice not to have to switch between devices -- but I can't see any way to make the Kann remember where I was when I stopped listening, so I can resume later (it always starts the previous song over). Is that feature (bookmark/flag) indeed unavailable?

Yes when you restart the Kann it will start the song right from the beginning. There is no resume feature as far as I know.
