    Denon AH-D9200 - 2018 Flagship - Impressions Thread

    I watched for the 9200's to become available for months before I finally managed to get a pair. In case anyone is looking right now, they just showed up as in stock from Denon...https://www.denon.com/en-us/product/over-ear-headphones/ah-d9200. After about three weeks, I'm still very pleased...

    Denon AH-D9200 - 2018 Flagship - Impressions Thread

    How does the AH-D9200 compare to the Sony MDR-Z1R in terms of isolation? I read your review comparing the two but don't recall that you mentioned how they do head-to-head on this metric.

    Denon AH-D9200 - 2018 Flagship - Impressions Thread

    True! Tapping on the side of a cup makes a nice, loud clacking...there's not much isolation from that direction. :relaxed: So deeper or denser foam in the pads might not help much.

    Denon AH-D9200 - 2018 Flagship - Impressions Thread

    Heh! Yup, I've tried a few different settings but without much of a difference. I think part of my issue is that I have a fairly small head, so the clamping force is low. That makes it really comfortable but probably lessens the isolation.

    Denon AH-D9200 - 2018 Flagship - Impressions Thread

    I'm a new AH-D9200 owner as of a few days ago. So far, I'm very happy with them, except for the fact that the isolation from incoming background noise isn't very good. It's a clear step down from what I experience when using the Focal Elegia with Dekoni Elite Sheepskin pads and not that much...

    The PowerAmp for Android thread

    I've been using PowerAmp on my Fiio M15 for about six months now. I really like it. One of the best features for me is that it handles externally-created M3U playlists so well, even storing the last playing position for every playlist. Wonderful!

    FiiO M15 Audio Player | Dual AK4499EQ | 7490 mAh Battery | 64 GB ROM | $1299.99

    I use this feature most the time, since my main use of the M15 is while I'm sitting at my desk and I like to keep the screen on without constantly charging the battery to 100%--better for battery health. When the 'Do not charge' feature is engaged, the M15 is being powered off the USB charger...

    I bought the first one you listed and really like it. I got mine from https://hifigo.com/. Check it out, since the price is much better than Amazon's.

    I reported a ways back in the thread that the original V3 app was crashing on my M15 and that I had to revert to the older version of the FiiO Music app. I installed V3.0.2 and it is stable and working well, with no crashes. Thanks for updating the app!

    It crashed for me every time I used it. I tried installing both from the Google Play Store and the .apk download. Same results. I've rolled back to the old version and stayed with it.

    The top pull down menu is pretty easy to get to with the case on. Using the fast scan of the alphabet by sliding a finger down the right side of the screen is a bit more difficult, though.

    I don't use my M15 as a DAC, so I can't speak directly to being able to turn off charging in that mode. But there is a "Disable battery charging" setting under the "General" settings for the M15. I use this for allowing me to keep the M15 screen on while connected to a charger without...

    Hi, I have a feature suggestion for the M15 that would be great for my use-case. I like to disable charging and keep the M15 plugged into a power source with the screen on while using it at my computer. By disabling charging, I feel that I'm protecting the battery from charging up to 100% and...
