That's very useful to know! But actually it's another problem that I am trying to solve. So, my mac is connected to an audio interface (Mackie), which I normally use for sound in and out. The Mackie, in turn, is connected to my speakers. Now, I want to use these speakers to play music that is on my DAP using the DAP’s DAC module. I know I could use a mixer but I don't have one here. So I was wondering if I could do something like this:
Mac sound input: SP1000
Mac sound output: audio interface

I seem to be able to set the SP1000 as sound output but not as sound input.

What do you mean by "audio interface"? what product exactly do you have? If you want to use your sp1000 as a DAC, you need to connect it to your audio system via an amplifier. If it is some kind of receiver or whatever, then you need to look if it has an option of "just amplification" mode (this should be from the different input).

I saw : the application DS Audio does that!

Did you already install Audio Station on your Nas? I am not very fond of remote access. Security is something to look into carefully before you open ports to the World Wide Web.
Then you have to install the DS Audio App on your A&K.

Question: can you find DS Audio apk? Is the DS Audio app accepted by A&K to be played in the Open Service function?
How do you reach out to your remote media Server? I don't know wether you can adress a remote ip adres in the DS Audio app. Easiest is to try this on an iPad. All Synology apps are in the App-store.

Yes I have instalked DS audio application on my sp1000 and could listen to my music located in the NAS, even from outside

Are there any issues in the Bluetooth known in the 1.52c firmware? While playing music in AK connect from my Synology Nas, I switched on the Bluetooth in settings, found one device then a instand reboot occured.
After the automatically start up the SP1000 crashed again. After the second instand reboot I managed to switch off Bluetooth while starting up. System kept playing as usual.

Any good charger for a SP1000m?

Recieving my baby next week.

Recieving my baby next week.

For my SP1000, I use the stock cable and a Samsung fast charger plug that I use with my Note 9, works pretty well.

Congrats on the pickup!

Thanks mate!

Really excited!

Also, a lot of people don't know this but if you're gonna stick a micro SD into the SP1000m and play music locally on there, you must format the micro SD card on the player itself first via system settings to get the best optimization for playback from the card. Music loads up faster and smoother and Media Sync on every bootup will be fast.

I did not know this when I had my SP1000m!

Just use 3,5 mm jack line cable into headphone out of your dap to your computer analoge line-in.
Set output volume low at first (you can switch your dap to line-out, but when you have forgotten this and put headphone in....), you can also adjust sensitivity of computer line-in when distortion occurs.
I think your dap s dac is better then the computer. (I don’t know whether your computer soundboard use its dac again, in this setup)
When the sound has to be good, play your computer on battery. Not on netadapter.

where can I find the serial # of a SP1000M gold?

 

[olddude]

Isn't it inside the sdcard holder?

The SP1000m does not have the sdcard holder like the SP1000.

You can always refer to the serial number on the box if you have kept it.

I have the Lapis blue SP1KM and the serial number is on the beveled edge next to the screen just above the micro-SD card slot. It's a light text and hard to see, plus really small. Hope this can help point you in a good direction.
