2015-05-04
hey guys what the Estelle and current booth here with the new player the a K jr. it's a smaller version and less expensive of the group of players they already have on the market it's brand new just came out well it's not even really out yet but this is the first kind of viewing they've had publicly so that's pretty fun as you can see it's a really tiny fun little unit this is just the back we can see the dials a little bit of a deviation from the other models most notable you'll note that it is a bit smaller and thinner than some of the other models but just I was while I had this I want to point out on this side the design as you can see this sparkle come across it's actually tiny little a's that are the logo for that still and curry company across the back so it's a very cool touch if you look on this you can see expansion slot the wheel here is kind of molded onto the back it rolls up and down but you can really tell from this angle how thin they really kind of went out other way there's a wake button here on the top headphone jack there beside maintains their similar pause play and track adjustment functions and the back side working at a microUSB in terms of the interface there's something good in focus there we go in terms of the interface there's this new graphic that's pretty cool in terms of volume right there up and down with the knob John Rose songs are this is kind of the main menu when you land on their land on their albums and touch interface similar to the other devices so all in all if you're looking to get into a high res player this one does play single DSD as part of the feature set which is also a nice touch you can see compared to here to the 102 model it's a little bit thinner but it kind of keeps the same aesthetics going features of Wolfson 8740 deck retails for $4.99 really slick really fun really cool here at Expo no
