@JasonNYC : Hi Jason, sorry to insist but I never got any answer on this.
The embedded Deezer app is not working since at least December 2020 (just not possible to log in).
What's A&K plan here please? Are you still planning to fix the problem? Or more probably after 9 months the issue will never be addressed; so are you planning to remove the app to free some space so we can add a few songs at least ?
Thanks.

I apologize, I thought I had answered. Currently there is no update. With the embedded Tidal app, the AK dev team gets the code from Tidal and builds the embedded app in-house. For the embedded Deezer app, Deezer produces the embedded app and then provides it to AK to integrate into the players. Our dev team has contacted them numerous times for an update on when to expect the update app and have not received an update in a while. Originally it was expected in Spring, then early summer. I will reach out to the dev team again to press Deezer for an update.

Wonder why Qobuz doesn't have a native app built in AK already

It used to have in the days of the AK240.

Hi,

Is it possible to include PlexAmp into the Open App service?

For those that asked about the size and weight of the SP2000T. This may change slightly once final production starts.

3.07" (78.1mm)[W] x 5.55" (141.1mm)[H] x 0.68" (17.5mm)[D]
about 10.89oz (309g)

A Question for the ones that have already test the SP2000T or to @JasonNYC …
The Korg nutubes are actually visible in some place, or they are hidden under the hood???

not visible

Can Jason confirm if the T is an upgrade in sound quality to the sp2000 ? Or is it a mid tier dap with more power ?

 

[orifiel]

not visible

it would be a good idea to make them visible in the final product, it gives a romantic touch to the DAP…
It’s only my opinion of course

 

[Sigurhead]

It is not only yours, it is also mine!

Probably a side grade. From HK forums, power output is identical to sp2000.

Vs. SP2000 Cu which is

3"(76.3mm) x 5.19"(132mm) x 0.61"(15.7mm)
15.25 oz (432.4 g)

So it's wider, higher, thicker but lighter

Are there any HK fora in English?

None that I am aware.

Hey, you and me both, and in this release, I hope it is going to be what I am looking for!! I feel that the sp2k was very technical in sound and coming off AKM Chips, that is something. So when AK toss in a tube and even be using ESS, I don’t think there would be much of a change in the level of sound signatures, but at least the tubes should have that transients/timbres/warmth as intended , which is again, confirmed by the earlier impressions. He didn’t even thought that it was using Nutubes

Look forward to your impressions on it @Whitigir. Especially on the impact of the nutubes. I have always chosen the Cu version of AK players, where available, because I do like a bit more warmth. Though my guess is the other thing I wish that AK SP2000 has more of, which is more driving power, will have to wait until SP3000. If at all.
