Newer does not necessarily make better.
Just that one CD, correct? Strange. I wonder if the Gracenote info for it is incorrect, so it is ripping it as another album. I haven't heard about an issue like that other than the Gracenote info being incorrect. Let me ask around and see if there is some additional info I can get you.Hello JASONNYC. I've read everything here but have never posted. I've a perplexing issue that hopefully you can assist with.
I've a 2000T that I love. A couple of sound issues (more hiss between songs or albums when in hybrid or tube mode (dead silent background in opamp mode)) with sensitive IEMs, or my very sensive/efficient home system (opamp is great since my home system is all tube based anyway, so I don't really need the subtle "extra-tubeyness" (is that a word?)) but no other issues until now.
I have ripped most of my CD collection to the player using the dedicated AK CD ripper (300+ CDs, yessir, it took a minute) and it works terrifically. Usually. It didn't work nearly as well with my previous DAP, the SA700. Had to plug and unplug cables to make it go.
Anyway, I've tried three times to rip one of my CDs, Supertramp's Famous Last Words. It looks like it works. I can watch as it makes progress on the album, or watch it work through the tracks, but when it's complete, I can't find that it's anywhere. I can even search individual songs and nope, none.
If I try to rip it again, I get the "The music is already here, allow duplicate recording?" and I've tried each way, yes and again after the second fail, no.
Copy protection? Memory is at 85% without having added a card yet (eying the 1.5TB that you've mentioned). No sign of the music anywhere.
Ideas?
Thanks,
James

I think it is. I thought it was worth the upgrade from the se200 and I paid the sale price at Christmas of 1699 plus 60 for the black case.I have an offer for 1500$ demo unit with 2 years warranty... coming from SR25 which I also got only for 300$ with case few weeks ago.

Depends on the type of demo unit on whether the warranty would be valid. We do provide some dealers/distributors discounted units for store demo. Those would not be covered under standard warranty. They are usually tagged without a valid serial number, or the serial number recorded. If the store pulled a new, retail sealed box and opened it for demo, the warranty may be valid, if it was originally a sealed, retail unit and the dealer is an authorized AK dealer. If the warranty is void, we would still repair it in the event of an issue, but at your cost.
