Re: Nick Warren's New Mix CD

Played it again with this little impulse buy

Cd 2 is great. It's slower dancing but very, very good. His progression in this release is probably the best I have heard from him. He does tend to have a couple of spots that jar, but not this time.

Yep Like an iPod but much better audio. Plays all formats automatically , It also plays 24/192 . The thing on the side is actually the volume knob

After listening to both Cds I give the edge to CD2 , but not much difference.

That's the state of the art iRiver, it's gorgeous and not even their top but it costs 700 pounds, I'd need a reincarnation to afford it.

It's a mastering quality is probably the easiest way to say it. Cd quality is 16/44 To be honest I probably won't be buying anything in 24/192 quality although they did give me a card with some music on it. But it even makes mp3 sound better.

The one I bought has just been superseded so I got it at a very good price. It is about probably only the beginning of the high end stuff. They have some that cost thousands of dollars. I didn't even know anything like these existed until last thursday It's a whole new world.

These presumably newer models look pretty sweet.

I wonder how much they go for. There are 62 pages of discussion over at head-fi.

Re: Nick Warren's New Mix CD

I still have my iRiver, this thick, with ascii characters and black and white screen.

24/96 or 192 (where human ears can't even perceive the difference) is hi-res audio, like an audio DVD or SACD. If it comes from an analogue source then it's the best version of that particular record you will ever get. As Didi says, CDs are standard resolution, 16/44.

These presumably newer models look pretty sweet.

The one on the left is Didi's model, the other one has a larger memory card. A 100 Mk II costs 700 euro or 700 pounds, it's expensive but after all that is the price of a good DAC.

Re: Nick Warren's New Mix CD

But it looks nothing like DD's model? They changed the case?

[sbando]

Re: Nick Warren's New Mix CD

Could be but it says AK100 Mk 2, it has the same features and a 32 GB memory. The other one has a dual DAC too.

Yes but mine is still available I prefer the ay mine looks. It's so plain

Internal 32gb, 2 cards lots up to 128 each.

Not sure if that is the updated version of mine . They have a funny numbering system. But you can still get mine. Digital Media Players, Buy Digital Media Player Online, Australia

This is annoying I am trying to post a link to just the Askell & Kern page and it won't work . You have to select it in the sidebar.

I joined head hifi yesterday, I am going to need all the help I can get. A@ K support for mac is pretty well non existent. They are not good for Pc either. Their manual is pathetic. It tells windows users to download software and about the only reference I could find for mac was "Connect to your PC or Mac" Fortunately for me I only want to use it very simply . The sound is what I want. It one of those gadgets that can be as simple or as complex as you want , like macs used to be. The best thing, aside from the sound, is that I can bypass the steaming heap of shit called iTunes. It's all drag and drop now.

I want to know how I can add tracklists.
