The only real gripe i have with any Astell dap is the side buttons, once you put a case it is impossible to press the right one

Also hisses with the Solaris 2020 and the Andromeda AG operating out of the 4.4mm, but damn they sound nice with the Alpha.Yeah the alpha definitely hisses more than my ZX507 too. A couple of friends that have the R8 also confirmed that it hisses with some IEM’s in turbo mode. Pretty hard to avoid hiss with high power.
In the end it will turn out that not having a carcass becomes a blessing ... XDThe only real gripe i have with any Astell dap is the side buttons, once you put a case it is impossible to press the right one
The case is nice and very sturdy, but the buttons are simply too small.In the end it will turn out that not having a carcass becomes a blessing ... XD
Oh that went off right awayI have given up and mostly use the screen to operate the player, hence the frequent use of the power button. The matte screen protector also makes it quite hard to see the screen under the sun......

Same thing happened to me. Purchased from Headphones.com a couple weeks back and they are price matching any deals from authorized dealers during the holidays. I reached out to customer service and they’ll be mailing me the case. Check with your distributor about getting the case.
Has any of Kann Alpha users compared it to the Shanling m6 pro?
I am thinking about buying the DAP Alpha / M6 Pr or new hiby R6 and I have a dilemma
I believe you still have a very wide "fork" of budget.... we are talking almost 1:2 ratio here
