that's pretty.  not sure about that bedding though :wink:

I like it, and it's comfy.  It was a royal pain though getting my Rebel T2i to focus on the PONO.

But your pillowcases have a much higher resolution than your sheets

HA!  MP3 sheets, FLAC blanket.
 
That's my blanket.  My pillows are in back of the blanket giving it structure.  (That was the ONLY reason I could get something resembling focus for the PONO)

IQ wise it makes no different using DAP or smartphone. But I choose to go the AK100MK2 route because:
 
1/ The stack is small, nice looking. I can carry them everywhere wearing big coat during winter.
 
2/ When summer comes, I can separate them and use only AK100MK2 on-the-go. And the DAP sounds pretty good on its own, better than my phone ofc.


And - if you want color, you can get the AK100Mk2 in blue (only in Japan):
 


AK100MK2 in blue, with RSA - The Predator in red and the Aurisonics Harmony in Gold. Love that color combo (it also sounds amazing).
 
Cheers,
K

With Mojo the AK100mk2 sounds much better than a smart phone IMO. Besides AK100 dimension is matched well with Chord Mojo.



You want it to sound better for yourself, thats what it is. There shouldn't be an audible difference between different
transports.

Received my Little Bear valve amp yesterday so been playing. I love the warmer sound anyway here it is with my XDuoo X3 and Audio Technica headphones. 

 
that looks fun, what type of tube does it take?   there's now 1000's more possibilities to tweak your sound :wink:
 
running different 12AX7 variants in my tube preamps is one of my favorite audio hobbies, its amazing how much a tube can shape the sound in a guitar and mic. i haven't really messed with them on the playback side much.

Smartphones degrade sound when used as a transport?


No. But the player you use can effect the sound. Use something like Neutron Player or USB Audio Player Pro and you'll be fine.
