Sorry if this is the wrong place but im new to head fi so I can't make a new post somewhere else. I have a question. Is there any reason that my MacBook isn't recognizing my alo pilot? the led indicator is blue but it doesn't show up as an output device in system preferences > sound. I have an apple silicon Mac if that matters. Has anyone else had this issue? Thanks!

Have you tried something else with a USB-C jack in that port, to make sure the port is working?

I don't have a Mac, but on my [Windows] Dell laptop, the sound output doesn't recognize the USB-C audio dongle until I actually have IEM plugged into th0e dongle.

@skfktkwjs between Ara and Andromeda (I imagine you own the 2020 version) which ones do you tend to prefer more?
andro 2020 is more smooth and easy to listen to. Ara is more linear and not as fun as Andro.
I wish Ara was a straight upgrade to Andro but instead, they are in a different category.
However, I do use Ara a bit more than andro (6:4 ratio I would say).

Listening to this tonight on the Bonneville and with every listen and every album the Bonneville continues to amaze and please.


From the thumping bass beats to the sub bass rumble and the ever difficult piano timbre and delicate treble decay.

I haven’t been this smitten by an iem in ages..

Similar feelings mate, have had Bonneville for a couple of months and it’s pretty much all I’ve been listening to. Bonneville plus RS8 is audio heaven right now. Great album choice!

Just listened to this, amazing. Rolled into gardenstate's inspirations afterwards. "Koski" is too good.
