Without a doubt, M0 was the most popular product we ever released. It convinced people to upgrade from their Sansa Clips to a proper Hi-Fi player, it was used as a USB Transport for DACs costing 10x its price, it was even glued to the shell of headphones, turning them into a DIY all-in-one rig. And it filled the empty space left after the legendary iPod Nano.


Our new M0 Pro follows closely in its steps, but this time we managed to squeeze in a full balanced audio circuit! With two pieces of ESS ES9219C DAC/AMPs, M0 Pro will be able to provide improved sound quality and increased output power. Making the most portable player sound even better!

To utilize the balanced output, while keeping the overall size of M0 Pro same as its predecessor, we got creative and implemented a brand-new type of 3.5mm connector, combining both single-ended and balanced connections into one. Working perfectly with all your standard single-ended 3.5mm connectors, while allowing for a proper balanced connection through a special 5-pin 3.5mm to 4.4mm adapter (Included in the packaging).

And we can’t forget the bi-directional Bluetooth, such an important feature of the original. M0 Pro now packs an upgraded Bluetooth 5.0 chip, assuring compatibility with the latest Bluetooth headphones and improving connectivity.


Price and release date to be announced later.

I have been waiting for a M0 or Q1 successor for too long. When will it be available?

 

[Dvl Kubo]

dang about time

Great, i'm glad ultra portable DAPs are not dead yet.
Personally i couldn't care less for the balanced output though, it will probably be awkward to use with an additional adapter, and M0 was already powerful enough for almost every iem. Just hope that output impedance is still as low as with an original M0.

What i would like to see is some bookmark functionality. Please please tell me you've added it finally

The 1st of the name is a success for the price.
Apart from the balanced circuit and hybrid audio output, I don't see any real novelty.
It would have sufficed to add a microphone to it, and we would have had the ultimate Swiss Army knife.

Great News! I loved my M0 - the cute little tank - Never let me down - ever. But it's time to move forward!

Oh. 3.5 5 pole is new to me. I believe there will be more implementation to other DAP as a new standard as I believe it can be used with every device (both SE device and Bal Devices)

Can this stream or its just usb-c and Bluetooth?

 

[gazpl]

Interesting do you also plan a 2.5mm balanced to 3.5mm 5pole adapter and could that be a sleeve-like solution that allows a less bulky addin?
Any info on power ratings and playback times?

No internet/Wi-Fi connection on M0, so no direct support for streaming.

At this stage only adapter for 4.4mm.

Do you have any photos of such adapter? Will it be angular or straight?

Can you put a volume adjuster in the software for the M0 Pro incase the wheel breaks? My M0 volume wheel broke. :~(
