No, I didn't see a list when upgrading. Perhaps because my device ID in French.

Still confused by this.  You didn't see it in English or you din't see it at all?  
 
I always see the change log when I update;--- it's at, I believe, the 3rd click in the update process.
 
In any event, it's posted above, so all the folks here can now link to it and check before updating next time.

I didn't see any changelog at all.

Not since I switch my AK100ii to French. I could reverse this, though. The translation is somewhat confusing in fact.

I went from X5 Classic to AK120ii. The upgrade was enormous in sound and UI.

AHH OK I did it! I bought the damn thing. I just bought the AK100II. It's all your fault, Pinky! Seriously: That review you wrote was epic. You should be a professional writer. 
 
For what it's worth, the others I considered: Questyle QP1R (UI issues turned me off), AK 120II (couldn't find one cheap enough used) and Calyx M (no built-in EQ and no streaming options...I want Tidal...kept me from moving forward).

Pretty much all of us use Beats with our AK players, so make sure you get those also.

You don't mean Beats headphones, I'm sure....right?

Yes I do means Beats, but I dont really mean we all have them.

If only Astell&Kern gave me 10% for every sale I make for them.

I agree. The QP1R is nearly perfect. I've drooled over it myself.

You do know that AK devices don't do Spotify or Tidal out of the box, right? You have to modify the firmware to get those features.

they don't do it yet...

On a serious note, if any of you guys are looking for a set of full-size cans to use with your AKs...
 

My X2's just arrived today and I must say that for $215 (new), I'm downright impressed.

OK. Has anyone published a guide on how to modify the firmware?

There are one or two posts like that in this thread.

People who have upgraded firmware since 1.12, did the random audio pausing get fixed or reduced with the newer firmwares? I'm still on 1.12 and rather stay on this version if the newer versions didn't fix or reduce this issue.
 
Thanks!

 

[PinkyPowers]

I can't say for sure about the very latest firmware, as I haven't tested it thoroughly enough. However, the issue exists with all previous updates.

Thanks for the info, PinkyPowers!
