can you share me the email please?

Pm'ed
As far as I understand filter type is set via serial interface, not via control pins. In other words, it's only about sending few bits of data to the DAC chip.

Greetings...
New to this thread and am looking for a relatively small DAP for workouts.

First, curious mostly... is there any difference between the AGPTEK H50 and the RUIZU A50? They seem identical.
Second, other than these and the Shanling M1, what else is out there for this use? (I've looked at the Hidizs AP60, and it seems like a good unit. Lotoo PAW 5000 and Pico are great, but have drawbacks. xDuoo Nano D3 great, but may be a bit big...)

Looking for expandable memory, ability to play up to 24/96k res in multiple formats (AIFF, FLAC, ALAC, etc.), gapless playback, small (less than 3" x 2" x 0.6"), around 50g or 60g, and... if at all possible, a clip for workouts (can't use armbands).

Thoughts and suggestions?

Thanks!!

Cayin N3 should be on your list as it checks a lot of the boxes for a lot of us.

Agree, even Zishan Z3 has switchable filters on AK4490, I emailed FA1 developer but got no reply

F. Audio’s first DAP Xunsound XS01 which uses the AK4490 chip supports switchable filters as well. So probably they will implement it in a future firmware release.

Thanks... I agree.
Being that I already have a couple DAPs that are that size or smaller (DX-90 and Onkyo DP-S1), I really need something much smaller, for workouts.

Maybe a HEP CAT filter?

I'm not a cat person so what is a Hep Cat and why should you want to filter it?

 

[HungryPanda]

Just because you can

Old hipster/jazz term. The coolest of the cool.

Can someone compare SQ of xunsound 01 and f audio s1? the spec almost identical

 

[shane55]

Thanks for all the replies to my questions.

Just purchased the Hidizs AP60... $30 off coupon still good, so it's mine, in grey, for $100. Prime 'free' two-day shipping, should be in my hands on Tuesday.
Jazzed... I can't wait to dump my Sansa Clip Sport thing, and listen to some hi-res, quality sounds while working out.

Cheers!

Hello,

I have some questions regarding the FA1, appreciate if you can help:

1) Can it be used as a USB DAC (laptop > fa1 > amp > hp)? If yes,what is the limit on DSD tracks (khz/bitrate)? Have you tried it and confirm that it is working OK? Do you need a special cable?
2) I am planning to try/buy it from a physical store in Beijing - can you recommend one?
3) If I buy the Chinese version can I change the menu to English - does it require a firmware update?

Thanks in advance!

1) No, it cannot be used as a USB DAC.
2) I have no idea.
3) Yes, you can change the language to English or any other major languages.

I hope this helps.

… Just purchased the Hidizs AP60...

Did you get the newer mkii version with the metal body or the original? I'm curious about whether the bass roll off is still there on the mkii. Because otherwise this seems like a great $100-ish player.

 

[shane55]

It said ‘2nd generation’. So I’m assuming, yes. But as for a bass roll-off comparison with the older model... that I can’t do. I can compare it to my other DAPs.

Cheers

Seems like YinLvMei company, the manufacturer of a very promising (and sweet sounding according to the impressions of lucky and very few users, whose DAPs did not die) but now discontinued A1 DAP, releases the new D1 DAP on January 12 in China. 2xAK 4495SEQ, a couple of 3.5mm phone balanced/single-ended outs, a couple of 3.5mm line balanced/single-ended outs, and a 2.5mm balanced phone out will make you never want to unplug your IEMs for sure (if not for the SQ than not to confuse the inputs They will sell it at about 285$, so the D1 is the D200 renewal/replacement, I guess

Now that looks interesting.
