    Yeah, I don't get the fuss either - as listed above, if the requirements for the streaming apps are android 5,6,7 then i'm not worried about it - I have a large local library on my SD card, but I do use some streaming - even if it wasn't getting the newest security updates, the likelihood of...

    Maybe i'm the odd man out but I truly don't care what version of Android it runs as long as it works. I buy a DAP to listen to music at it's best - I get something like a Samsung S23 Ultra if I want the newest baddest android software and features. To me it's entirely different use case...

    ^Unfortunately I do not have access to any other DAPs to test against - the M11 Plus Ltd does of course have a Line-Out mode that I use - are you talking about devices that have truly separate dedicated line out circuitry? For the price bracket I felt that M11 plus ltd was the best option I...

    I went from M11 pro to M11 plus ltd and have been real happy with mine - havent really encountered any serious issues - but I'm also one of those that as long as the device works I don't really care what version of Android it is - i've never understood the point of getting all worked up about...

    ATTICUS and EIKON, the new dynamic driver headphones from ZMF

    Always good to see another Eikon coming up - I love my 2020 camphor model - like a fine wine, they just get better with age.

    as a ZMF owner i'm mighty intrigued by the huge increase in 300ohm power, but I do highly enjoy my M11 plus ltd. - and I do also have an AK PA10, so theres no lack of power - still, cool to see. Props to Fiio.

    I too rock a Fiio M11 Plus Ltd into my PA10 - seems to provide more than enough power for my ZMF Eikon, they sound fantastic.

    which case is that on the PA10 @TXC2710 ? Thats a nice shade of green. I run mine off my Fiio M11 Plus Ltd into my ZMF Eikon and it is quite the lovely combo! I've got the miter case on mine, but just in the plain grey and now i'm wishing I had chosen more of a color, lol.

    My setup currently centers around my Fiio M11 Plus Ltd., which I adore. The actual portable setup is the player and Sony MDR-1AM2 Transportable is Fiio into Astell & Kern AK PA10 (audiophile ninja IC) to the ZMF Eikon (with an Arctic Cable 'define' series) The last pic I call overkill mode...

    album art issue/question - does anyone on here know how to delete or change the album thumbnail art that appears on the scrolling artist - album list?

    ATTICUS and EIKON, the new dynamic driver headphones from ZMF

    I love those early Cherry sets - my favorite Eikon of all time is the Rustic barnyard Cherry they did around that time - I've got a bass guitar my father handbuilt for me out of 80+ yr old Cherry wood and it looks exactly like the Rustic Barnyard Cherry eikons in terms of color/grain and...

    ^Interesting take on the software side of things - I have never really had much problem with the stock Fiio app - but I will say the recent update has made some nice improvements - like actually showing the song length in the library menu - that was my only real gripe. I tried out UAPP a while...

    ATTICUS and EIKON, the new dynamic driver headphones from ZMF

    the Camphor Burl has always been one of my absolute favorites when it comes up on various models. My personal holy grail is one of the early Rustic Cherry wood sets (I know there was Eikon, not sure what else it came on).

    Has anyone used or even seen in person the Miter case for pa10? It has been back in stock on amazon (US anyway) - but from the pictures it doesn't really look like it follows the step down curve thing on the one side and I wouldn't want it to 'wobble' around in there. The dignis case is...

    Understanding output power?

    Ok, so i've been going through this thread and making attempts to understand the maths, but the numbers i'm getting aren't making sense. I've got a Fiio M11 Plus Ltd and a Astell and Kern AK PA10 running through ZMF Eikon (balanced 4.4mm in and out). The Fiio is running in Balanced LO mode...

    Yeah that's probably what it is - i'm sure i'm being paranoid, I was just curious if anyone else had a similar experience.

    has anybody else ever felt like, a slight 'bump' in the volume knob when turning it at about 75% or so? Might happen moreso when turning the knob fast. That was also when I was running the PA10 to my ZMFs off a low gain source, so it was getting cranked pretty high - my M11 plus with the...

    Yeah I would say 5-6 hrs is about what I get - and I'm usually running full gain, full power balanced.

    I recently upgraded to a M11 Plus Ltd as my dap, into my PA10 - also very happy with the combo - powers up my ZMF Eikon quite nicely!

    Same here - I actually just upgraded to an M11 Plus Ltd so I had the 4.4mm balanced line out - I have a large library of music on the device, but also use tidal and yt music - never had any issues or anything noticable. I'm Lovin it

    Alright, so I have bought a M11 Plus Ltd from eBay, can't wait for it to arrive - what I am wondering is what (if any) are the cool case options? I'm a case nerd on my phone and have several, I like to have something fun and cool looking when I can. The Fiio made cases look perfectly nice, but...

    SONY NW-ZX700

    I saw this question asked a couple times but nobody ever answered - does the 707 have a dedicated Line Out setting for the balanced 4.4mm output? It doesn't seem like it does from research, but hard to tell sometimes. Thanks.
