At least he'll be able to put the color versus sq to rest. I am myself highly suspicious of a device of different color having dissimilar characteristics knowing that the company rep himself said there are no differences. I am siding with Vinnie saying that the only variable left is the component choice, that I would believe could have an impact.


ROFL ... poor Vinnie :-D

All,

Thanks for posting your listening impressions for both
units.

II plan to spray paint the Gold version in black - then
it should sound the same! :wink:

Seriously, I'll compare the parts and look for
any differences. I'll report back either way.

Cheers!

Vinnie

:) thanks for the rwak100 mod. I just got mine recently. Love it so much! I'm sure my rwak100 will beat ak120 and dx100 flat

What do you think, peeps, should I get the brown leather case or the black? (The genuine iRiver ones I mean)


If your AK is black, stick to black case.
IMO, brown looks nice on the gold AK.
Haven't seen a silver AK in person, so can't comment
