So, when will A&K players have TIDAL offline? Read rumours about firmware for Sept. Pretty much the only thing stopping me from getting A&K players. The SR15 sounds really nice. Demo'd it at a local retailer. Very good pocketable size and smooth UI. Very detailed, dark background and clean sound too. Would be a good upgrade from my Cayin N5ii.

An interesting version appeared on the AK website, the SE100 M.Chat edition

A&Norma SR15: What is the difference with the AK70 Mk2 ? Almost Same price, same screen, same size, same weight.... how to chose between booth ?

-> Are there still good reasons to but the AK70 mk2 instead of the SR15, or will AK70 mK2 fade out ?

What hifi claim the difference between Ak70 mk2 and the SR15 is like the difference between blu ray and dvd.

I find that a bit hard to believe,

If there is a real difference I'd say its more like the difference between standard blu ray and 4k blu ray.

While the SR15 has that distinctive A&K sound – shrewdly detailed and dynamic – the comparison between the two players is the audio equivalent of switching from DVD to Blu-ray, with the A&norma being much clearer, crisper and more transparent.
