Seems like an interesting product. Lack of balanced output kind of turns me off since I'd like to use it with my other headphones that require some more power. Not a huge fan of Burr-Brown DACs either. The DP-X1 still looks like a better option but the quality issues cause some concerns.

Wonder it's worth just holding off altogether for now and wait a year or two for some next generation DAPs. I feel like if I buy now I'll be settling. What would be really nice is an A&K unit with streaming. When will that be happening!

Yeah that's kind of what I thought, may just wait until they get the issues fixed or hold off for 2nd generation maybe. iPhone 6 plus should be capable for just the Andromeda's for now anyway

Same question, support for TIDAL? So hard to find any information on the manufacturers websites. I'm assuming it doesn't if they don't advertise it as a feature. TIDAL support is a must for me as I don't have much music stored on my PC. Almost all of my listening is done via TIDAL now.

balanced and tidal = dpx1
tidal = i5
 
@goldendarko i prefer i5 sound but if you need balanced go for dpx1!
