Astell&Kern AK CD-Ripper MKII

Seems to be working fine with our Kann Alpha other than some minor occasional inner facing issues with the Kann Alpha device. Not sure which device is more sensitive the Alpha or the Ripper. All and all the end result is good and we are happy.

Astell&Kern AK CD-Ripper MKII

Incredibly easy to set up and use. Very convenient since you can eliminate using a laptop. Just connect the portable device with one cable, set your ripping preferences one time, then insert a cd. That's it!!

Great Ripper!

This ripper is awesome. It does take some time to fully transfer a CD onto an A&K player (I have the Kann Alpha). That said, the sound is quite impressive. Very satisfied and highly recommended.

Great piece of gear!

I bought this to rip my massive cd collection onto an SR25 that I also recently bought. It's fantastic, runs super smooth and quiet. It doesn't get any simpler than this. You can setup your DAP to make this an automatic process in which you don't even have to hit any buttons. I've heard people complain that the rip takes a while but I'm averaging about 15 minutes per cd and to me, for a bit perfect and lossless transfer, that is not that long. The sound quality from the cd transfer is outstanding!

Disapointing interfacem, won'

I wanted this to be a slick way to rip CDs onto my A&K SA700. It connects to the SA700 easily, and stores the music files in a folder called "Ripping" and it creates a folder for each CD that is named for the title of the CD. That works, but it'd be nice if I could have it store CDs in a folder by artist instead of by CD title. The biggest complaint is that it is essentially a "dumb box" with no user interface. It only has one button, which serves to either start the ripping process or to eject the CD. Unfortunately, the Ripper often loses its mind and won't eject the CD. I can't figure out exactly what causes this condition, but it seems to be more likely when the CD finishes the download process and the SA700 waits for the user to respond to the prompt to eject the CD. Once you're in the loop of not wanting to eject, it can takes hours to get the Ripper to wake up and let you eject the CD. I've even rerun the entire CD (which takes 20-30 minutes) to get the eject message agin, and even that doesn't always work. It is easy to connect to the A&K device, but I'm not sure this is easier than using a CD/DVD external drive to save the CD to my computer then load it onto the SA700. It would be two steps, but I intend to have the files stored on both my computer and the SA700, so it isn't really an extra step for me.

Works well with A&K devices.

Works extremely well with my A&K SR51. That said, I had one disk "hang up" and not eject. Looked for guidance in the manual (no help) so simply turned the unit upside down and hit the eject button again - solved the problem.

Astell&Kern AK CD-Ripper MKII

It's a highly-specialized product--it's only for ripping CDs--but works easily and flawlessly with my Astell&Kern Kann. I've been able to copy CDs onto the Kann that were too flawed to even play on my Creek CD player (I'm not referring to the Julia Fischer Bach in the photo; that is a perfect demonstration-quality CD).
