Fiio M17 A&K SP2000 Shanling M8 LPGT Shanling M9 plus iBasso DX320 Hiby RS8 Lotoo PAW 6000 A&K SP3000 iBasso DX240 Fiio M11 LTD Fiio M11 Cayin n6ii

Does M17 have higher output impedance with enhanced over-ear mode? I'm using Moondrop Variations and enhanced mode and bass rises significantly and noticeable. Variations have downward sloping impedance starting from bass. Basically, the higher impedance, the more bass and the less treble.

I was using my Fiio M17: USB DAC (PC soundcard while gaming) DC enhanced over-ear mode No charging And received notification that battery is overheating. I downloaded AIDA and found that temperature was 42 degC (probably it was higher because I needed to download it first). Is this expected...

Indeed, buttons are a bit loose. Thank you for clarification

I'm proud owner of M17 upgrading from iBasso DX240. It is literally direct upgrade - everything is better and nothing is worse, sound signature is about the same. It is dynamic, strong and in addition grand sounding. Have anyone tried to replace DK3 fan to noctua equivalent? My understanding...

I switch between linear fast and linear slow, depending on my mood. As for Gain, Variations scale with higher gain. I was listening with over-ear mode, then I connected to the DC power supply and enhanced over ear mode is even better. Contrary to this, Utopia does not like enhanced over-ear mode...

I use both with Moondrop Variations and Focal Utopia OG. M17 creates soundstage in front of you by moving it outside of your head, has 3D feeling to images like you can hug it all around its circumference. It has more dynamic, more details, better layering, soundstage and imaging IMO. My...

I believe Fiio M17 is direct upgrade from iBasso 248mk2 in all SQ aspects. Thats why I just bought Fiio M17 and planning on selling DX240

Has anyone found solution to latency in USB DAC mode?

Done without removing IEMs from ear, so sealing uninterrupted

Amp8mk2: Fiio FD1, AT R70x Amp1mk3: Moondrop Variations For some reason everything sounds amazing from amp8mk2, except variations. I even listened to a lot of ToTL IEMs in the shop, amp8mk2 sounds amazing with everything here too. Only variations need amp1. Variations don't have bass through amp8.

I'm getting 1-2 second delay before start of the song in UAPP on Ibasso DX240. Is there fix for that? All other players work perfectly, including streaming services. It is really intimidating. Have not updated yet to the new android, I'm using the newest old android firmware.

Totally understand you. I also can't recommend this IEM to anyone, I still don't understand what I hear, but it is so easy to listen

I had opportunity to listed to some high end IEM's in Doctorhead, Moscow. I have always been leaning towards @Precogvision rankings, because I'm very critical of the sound and can feel every nuance that is not perfect. As a result, small issues can ruin IEM for me, while fixing a small issue...
