That's why... The moment they named their new one DX80 I knew they'll have a newer flagship later on.

That is another new player called Onkyo DP-X1

Can try that, from review, it does sound good, but need to be in balanced jack so that you can get the best experience

Yes, sound-wise, potentially an AK120ii killer with a good price (~USD700), but they have to iron out some firmware bugs (sudden max volume for split seconds, no native folder browsing) before it is fully mature. And you have to really like Android.

I havent tried yet, you tested it before and where is it?

I only tested its brother - Pioneer, output sound is so weak, even weaker than AK100II, I cant even hear properly at 50% volume and even in high gain mode

The saddest part is Onkyo DP-X1 doesnt have folder play option yet

Didn't test it la lol. Just followed the Headfi thread.

Summary - great balanced output, poor firmware.

Read about this. Not my kind of taste and the firmware issue is another thing D:

sidenote: oo diablo3 haha

Review says better than 120II but I dont know yet.

It is hard for me who gets used with AK system to accept normal android system

My diablo 3 just casual player only, that is why I dont join LYN clan, just play for fun

Well currently my only aim is the AK240...... and reviews says that AK240 is good and the only downside is the price tag D:

Try ask Joshua regarding his AK240gold

Not sure whether he does RWAK mod or not, if he does, it is great for you

by the way, try listen to AK320 and AK240, then tell me the difference

Exactly the AK240 I haz in mind. My only concern is I am hoping that no one will buy from him

Anyways, the AK320 is like a newer but downgraded version of 240 in the sense that it lacks the QMS streaming and other features only a hardcore pro user would use. Basically the 320 is more like a DAP rather than a super DAP (if there's such thing lol) like the 240 and 380 (please correct me if wrong here). And it's cheaper, way cheaper than 240.

Sound wise, might really go listen properly. But then again a good secondhand AK240 might be worth the price.

The biggest difference for AK240 is USB DAC function and DSD native playback



You will find MQS streaming less attractive if you try already, better transfer to AK240 and listen.

I don't fancy the MQS cause I don't have 10000tbs of musics in my laptop. And the 320 does not have the sexy carbon fibre! D: But who knows there's a new model that's below 380 and above 240? Also need to go audition asap haha

That is why 320 is here~

It is the model between 2nd gen flagship and 3rd gen flagship

MQS music is available online lah

forget about the carbon fibre lah, go get the stainless steel edition of AK240, can self protect also

Joshua 's gold AK is a new one which he claims from AK service, faster buy before anyone buy wor

I've seen second hand AK240 go for 5.5k in the LYN garage sales so you just keep your eyes peeled.

Hi guys.
I have Sony Z3, Huawei mate 7 and ipod shuffle for my music purposes. Paired with earpods and Monster Vektr headphones. Planning to get a Fiio M3 . So does the fiio M3 makes any difference with the ipod shuffle or smartphones in the music clarity or quality? COnsidering most if not all of my songs are in mp3 format.

Have tried this and will own two in a few weeks. I must say, stellar.

To be honest. The ZX2 sounds better than the AK240. Better tonal density etc. Better battery life even. I have a zx2 for sale that is still under warranty. You can hit me up if you're interested

How is it against ZX2 and AK240?

What do you wanna know about it?

Sound signature

UI most likely same as Pioneer one, tried that at E1 already

Plus, there are good feedback on Onkyo DP-X1 balanced jack.
