What is a PSU? what tube amp is that? Looks nice. I enjoy my ba300s with the m8. Doesn't need more power with my headphones/IEMs, but the tonal changes are nice.

Power Supply Unit (better known as Linear Power Supply). The argument is that the PSU provides regulated clean and consistent power hence reducing noise floor. That usually makes more sense for plugged in desktop amps. For portables, a good quality built in battery should perform just as well because it is unaffected by inconsistencies from the wall plug current so I didn’t find a PSU necessary.
The tube amp is KAEI TAP-1, it’s a hybrid fully balanced tube amp which is quite rare for a portable of its size and price. And unlike newer portable tube amp models that uses Korg Nutubes, this uses real subminiature vacuum tubes which gives a more realistic tube tonality than the Korg ones.

Yeah. The ba300s uses mini vacuum tube as well. Clean warm sound. Pocketable in size, but I use it at home when I'm sitting relaxing with my DAPs. Thx for the info

Me, so far no issues. I also don’t regularly monitor for updates. Since I’m not streaming music, I feel (perhaps wrongly) to just let the software be, if it’s stable and the sound signature works fine for me

I use streaming apps, but I also have 130 albums stored on the phone from my computer that I use with the Shanling music. I've had no issues there, or with anything else on the device. 4gb of ram, If i try to scroll extremely fast from top to bottom of my folders, the images will take a sec to populate, but that is as expected. No issues with the device from my end

. But my main gripe with the Auteur is that I find it a bit too heavy… I love the tonality though..
