I finally bit the bullet to get my music together on my mac for the AK120.įirst of all, I did listening tests. There is currently no way to create playlists on the mac for the AK120. You get sorting by album and artist (the AK120 only reads the tags, not the file or folder names) and you get nice album art on the screen while playing the music. Here's the short answer: Flacs that are properly tagged with jpeg art work very well on the AK120 and it's fairly easy to do on a mac. So, I wanted to create a new thread for us who are spoiled with the great integration between a Mac, iPod, iPhone and iPad, but who still would like to enjoy the audio benefits of AK120.Īny concrete help and hints are more than welcome!


And I am pretty sure that someone has been able to figure out how to go around at least some of the obstacles. I am sure there are a lot of frustrated Mac users facing the same problems with their AK120. However, the cover art does not show.Īlso, I wonder how AK120 firmware can be updated if there is no PC, only Mac, available. Flac seems to work better, so I purchased some flac files. Same with some 96/24 wav files that was received in connection with a vinyl LP purchase. If I am happy to listen to mp3 audio, I might as well stick to my iPod, so what is the point of high end gear if convenience is lost. However, when ripping CD's to iTunes in 44/16 wav format, I lose the artwork and both the artist and album names become Unknown. So far, I have been able to move audio and cover artwork from my MacBook Pro when it is in mp3 format and bought from. The AK120 seems to have a lot of issues with Macs. I am a new AK120 user and have been trying to collect info on how to move wav files from Mac to AK120 without losing the Artist and Album info and the artwork.
