Hi Fiio, I have been a long time supporter of Fiio amplifiers and was very happy with the E5, E7 and E12 which worked very well with my old iPod. Now is time for an upgrade and I had eyed on the M6 but as it was released in 2019, it seems quite dated now. Will there be a successor to the M6...

Hey everyone, I have been using the iPod nano 6 (16gb) and thinking of changing to another DAP even though it is still in working condition. One of the reason I don't like the iPod is having to deal with the hassle of transferring songs. I am thinking of changing to the Fiio M3pro. Would like...

Are the differences in sound very drastic between the two? I listen to jazz, smooth jazz and bossa nova mostly, so I am wondering which is better?

I kept seeing people mentioning that the Cmoy and A10 sound more musical than the E11. What does that really mean? Does it mean that the sound gets "muffled" to make it less jarring to the ears? I used to have the E11 but lost it a month later without any good usage. I am hoping to get a new...

How does it compare to the JDS CmoyBB v2.03 in terms of SQ? I personally preferred the design of the E11 over the candy case of the Cmoy but I prioritize SQ more than anything else.

Ok I am actually asking about 2 things here - cans and amps. Not sure if I should post it here or in the amps forum. While window shopping at a headphones store, I came across the beyer 501 and fell in love with the design and price tag. After reading good reviews here and elsewhere, I want to...

I am now deciding between the DTX 80 and 100. Are the 71iE and 101iE really the same as the 80 and 100 respectively? I am wondering if it's really worth waiting for their official arrival?

I have shortlisted these 2 budget IEMs after reading up a lof of reviews and I am in a dilemma on which one to get. I am not a bass head but I would like some decent bass and clarity of sounds, as well as good noise isolation as I will be using them when taking buses and planes, so comfort could...

Nice review, how about sound isolation on the Denons?

Receiver? Did you mean an AM/FM radio receiver?   I have seen a tutorial about DIY amps and I don't know if I can get all the required parts. Does a receiver contain everything I need or I need additional parts? I have never done soldering in my life BTW   Can you point me to an idiot...

Hey guys,   I am looking for a dedicated headphones amp to boost the sound of my PC's audio interface (i.e. no DAC)  and which does not have any internal rechargeable batteries (like the the Fiio E5), it means it is powered from an AC source or basic USB bus power. So did a search on Amazon...

Thanks for the explanation , uncle Erik :)

Ok, I came across a very old thread (in 2002) and I become very curious about the above mentioned topic. I am aware that amps amplify analog signals and if digital signals get in, it has to be process by a DAC before it can be amplified by the amp.   Let's say I have a soundcard with a...

Sorry to resurrect this thread. Since both are on USB, are the Nuforce Icon Mobile and the Fiio E7 audio interfaces (soundcards) that will overtake whatever soundcard in the computer? Or I can use them with my own soundcard and improve it?

Ok, I had been using cheaper headphones all my life. Never saw the need to upgrade until recently when I got interested in music production. My old Philips SHP1800 and Sony MDR-Q66 had clear sounds, and I actually liked them despite the fact that they tend to cause some discomfort on long use...

I use my M50 primarily for transcribing music, so clarity of sounds is a must, and I am very happy with it. Every instrument can be heard, even on music with crappy quality ripped from Youtube. The highs are not piercing and the bass is tight but won't blow your head off, might not be a thing...

Oh my God, this thread is freaking me out, especially when some dude mentioned about "The box they come in is all WHITE with an el-cheapo big  plastic window."  Mine came in an almost white box with a big plastic window! However, I felt a bit better when I saw the logo on the left can was not...
