Aside from the new Aune (the reasons given above preclude my purchase of one), is there anything else that does what the Mini APE does (or rather, should do)?
I want a reliable (and preferably cheap!) media player like the Mini APE, that'll play from SD cards and external USB HDDs (or USB sticks), and gives me some means of selecting what's played, i.e., a screen. (Just like the Mini APE really, except with 100% reliability!)

Hi Candy, I am in Miami Beach, Florida USA. Would you be willing to send a sample to the USA? Thanks.

Can I repeat the same questions from my email; 1) It has no digital inputs?! (SPDIF) 2) does it have analogue out (like the X5A) or only digital out (like the X5) OK 3) what is the limit in capacity of a connected hard drive? 4) can the X6 power the hard drive or is an external power supply necessary Still waiting on that information. I also asked you via email about a replacement remote control for one of MiniApes, one of mine is now stuck in transmit mode which cannot be cleared. Are these available, or even an equivalent? Willing to try the X6 in Spain....

Another month down the line and still no response despite the fact that Candy has logged in several times and very recently and, of course, ignored emails.
I must say that is VERY poor support and attitude. This site has supported the product only to be kicked up the arse!
Of my two MiniApes I can only use one at a time as I only have one working remote control. I'm not asking for a free replacement, just the chance to buy a a new one!
Maybe she would prefer me to send one or even both MAs back as "unfit for the purpose it was built" for a full refund?!

Chris Seems like we're the only ones persisting with this device! Having read about your issue with the duff remote, I've taken the precaution of training my all-in-one remote (which can be programmed for up to 10 different devices) using my (still working) Mini APE remote. It occurs to me that (since they've gone deaf at HiFiDIY) you could buy an all-in-one remote and use your good Mini APE one to train it, while it's still functional. Here's a cheap one (€8.50, inc P&P).

My last attempt at pushing a bit harder (email) seems to have done the trick. I was allowed to purchase the replacement remote control which rolled up today in the post.

Yes! No problem but you must use a 32bit computer to reflash the firmware onto the Mini Ape. I'm currently on my 64bit PC but if you PM (private message) me your email I can send the file to you later on from my 32bit laptop.

Thanx to cj, the problem now solved. Firmware is working. My mini APE is working as new, without any problems. Candy responded as well, but he didn`t sent me firmware yet. Anyway I`ll keep both of firmwares and will send to anyone who`ll need it. Best music forum ever!
