My AK player and the AMP DAC combo at the show play without any issues using the stock Khan cable, but don't worry after just getting off the phone with John, this issue will be fixed. I am not allowed to say this, but i am gonna. New IEM is also in the works with some tech never used in the industry yet. That's your teaser and all you get, its a teaser for me also, since that's all I know so far, sort of. :thinking:

Well just got my early delivery of the Khan and did some testing.

iPhone 8 + apple adapter + Khan cable = static noise
iPhone 8 + apple adapter + Gold x Silver cable = static noise
iPhone 8 + apple CCK + Hugo 2 + Khan cable = No noise
iPhone 8 + apple CCK + Hugo 2 + Gold x Silver cable = No noise

I think its an iPhone issue.

Not an iPhone issue. It the issue with the supplied adapter (the dac/amp chip inside)

In addition,

iPhone 8 + apple adapter + Katana + black stock cable = No noise
iPhone 8 + apple adapter + Katana + Gold x Silver cable = No noise

Found a stock cable from Encore.
Tested Khan with Note 9 = no static noise from any click to any GUI at all.

Only use TOTL IEM for daps or dac/amp, not phone. Just curious from others impressions here.
Sounded thin compare to Khan's stock cable.
Does Khan's stock have lower Gauge number?
Tested ALO ref 8 balanced cable ( curl up too much ) with Khan to 1Z, dx200, CDM. Somehow, I like Khan's stock cable more than alo ref 8 and old Noble black stock cables.
Well, I had ordered DHC Fusion from Thanksgiving, specifically for use with Khan later on. Waiting time is a bitch though.

Time to sell ALO Ref 8 2.5mm balanced and Penon GS model.
Kind of a surprise of the Khan's stock cable to me.

Khan #27. I tried with my MacBook Pro via Effect Audio 3.5mm adapter + Horus 8 = Static noise.
I have no problem using on Lotoo PAW Gold Touch and AK SP1000M Gold (either with Horus 8 or Leonidas II cable).
