Aune M1P

[pradiptacr7]

So after a rocky start, my new love and I decided to spend some quality time together to try and understand each other better. I listened to her, apologised for not immediately understanding her ways, told her it was all my fault.

Then a magic thing happened...she let me in. All of a sudden, songs appeared. She let me play with her a bit. Then more songs came, followed by an extended listening experience.

Then, and this is when I knew we were going steady, she let me bring her back to a time when she used to make other people happy before me (firmware 1.07). Mind you, it still took me 2 attempts.

Bliss!

Haha nicely put..!! You play words well

How are you finding her as of now?

To be honest, I haven't had much chance to actually listen to music as was away with my young family Thurs/Fri, but I messed about with her a good bit whilst driving around and ran through menus and that, and my biggest gripe is the length of time it takes to actually register the SD card after powering on. It hasn't ever just worked quickly, and end up having to hold the power button for what feels like about 1 minute to get her to see the songs. I'll have some time to reacquaint today, and will report back. For the record I'm on FW 1.07 available on the Aune website.

I am thrilled to be a member of the club!

The device is simple and portable, with a clear and dynamic sound signature. Pure love.

For new users who struggling with SD card reading and incorrect track order, I have some tips that I developed from my years of experience with non-android daps like Quloos and Hifiman. Here are a few:

1. Try using Kingston SD cards. Surprisingly, they work best with these kinds of daps, and in many cases, this only resolves all the problems. Choose fastest card possible (U3) and stick with 256gb capacity tops.

2. Prepare your SD card correctly. This is a two-step process:
a) Format your card using Panasonic's SD card formatter, choosing a full format. This step takes a while.
b) After formatting use DiskGenius to convert your card to FAT32.

This two simple tips helps resolve almost any card problems! This also helps with reading time (8 secs for full 256gb card in my case).

Best luck!

Legendary advice. Thank you.

I use a super fast Kingston 256gb card formatted to exFAT and it works perfectly.

Can I ask which firmware you're using Doug?

im not totally sure on this, maybe @AuneAudio can confirm, but i think filename length only applies to the filename, not the folders.

some of my longer filenames i had to shorten so be mindful, they just dont display if too long

@Arjan Delaney Hi, folder name length limit is the same as the file name: 90 characters.

Do you have a demo unit that I can test for a week or so?
I really want a simple DAP without Android with the same amazing sound as Yuki.

 

[fabrycicco]

Yeah it came with a 128GB micro SD card.

I formatted the micro SD card. Put about 200 tracks on it. No Device.

Then I formatted the SD card again. Put 1 track on it. No Device again!

To me it happened because of some .cue files in it. Once removed then i have never experienced any problem again

Sorry, we don't have demo units.

Can the M1P be used safely while charging?

 

[naynay]

How are the Aune m1p owners who use the case getting on using the 4.4mm jack input? For me it is unusable due to the fact that the cut out of the case is right up against the 4.4mm jack metal plug so where the body of the jack sticks out it sits on the case stopping it from fully engaging.
All I get from the UK Distributor when I mention this issue is he has no issues with his Aune m1p dap which is not a great response regarding customer service.

You have to cut it yourself. They're all like this apparently.

Has it been reported on here I am interested to see who else has this issue as the UK distributor is confident there are no issues with the Dap case. He told me he has sold plenty without any complaints?
