    Going fully Wireless IEMs. Too soon? Or are we there yet?

    Uhhh, samsung doesn't support snapdragon sound on purpose. Just like it doesn't support dolby vision.

    Going fully Wireless IEMs. Too soon? Or are we there yet?

    It's so funny you mentioned se846 vs chifi j in your signature lol, I had my se846 for more than 10 years and now a $200 chifi iem are far superior in terms of sq. But I can get why you hold the belief tho, given your list you prob only listen to acg and some jpop/rock. tg 334/335 are not bad...

    While I do like tws (in fact I have 6 pairs of tws) I strongly disagree with you... I have mtw3 and my $200 iem beat the crap out of it in terms of sq, my 1k iem are prob 15% better than the $300 pair, but man, even my sis who only uses airpods can easily say the $200 falcon ultra is way better...

    W I agree sony phone is just not as good as iphone or samsung now but the reason is just purely wrong. Seems like you don't understand the phone business, I talked to a guy who is a senior engineer at Oppo/Oneplus, the onlg reason that sd card slot are gone is because the limited space, you...

    Going fully Wireless IEMs. Too soon? Or are we there yet?

    TBH Sony's flagship phone is just not as good as Apple and Samsung's or even Xiaomi's ultra series. Camera is just not as good as Samsung or even pixel, battery life is awful, system is unpolished, 4k screen is a mostly a gimmic since the ppi of a 2k samsung screen is high enough, brightness is...

    Reply to review by 'Linus Jian' on item 'Moondrop Alice'

    It's so funny that a review on a hifi forum doesn't talk about sound lol. I mean I'm not against covering all the other parts but you wrote all these paragraphs and didn't even mention the sound? That's ridiculous.

    Exactly, that's why I posted the reply, the $150 msrp doesn't mean you can't have decent drivers in them, how to price in tuning & implementation is very subjective, if noble is the only one making multi-driver good sq tws then they can even charge $500, but chifi company like fiio can probably...

    Just fyi, drivers are cheap af, even for $1k iems the cost of drivers is as low as $50 -$100

    Do you think the isolation on the fokus pro is comparable to tws with good anc (like sony xm4)? I use tws mostly on the subway train.

    I read somewhere there was an issue with the balanced line out, a user reported that using the same amp with m11 plus, the volume is lower when connecting using the balanced line out vs using the unbalanced line out.

    Just received my m11 plus today, I noticed 2 issues: 1. Fiio marketplace is blank 2. Can't update chrome in playstore I am wondering if anyone has these issues?

    Shanling M3X Portable Player - Our smallest Android Player

    Just curious, why do you want to use uapp on this dap? One of the reasons I consider buying this is to get rid of the hedious ui of uapp. Otherwise I would be using L&P w2 with my s21 ultra to stream tidal.

    Well yeah, considered this one before, the system/ui and sound seem amazing, but so many reviews of emi issues.

    I'm currently using thieaudio monarch and shure 846. And I like more clinical and precision sound. That's why I use custom silver cable with my 846.

    Yeah, it's absolutely way more convenient to carry only one device. This Android src stuff sometimes makes me want to switch back to iOS, but man the s21ultra is so much better than the iPhone. What are the other options for dap? I watched some reviews and seems like fiio m11pro has the best...

    Forgot to mention, I'm also eagerly waiting for spotify hifi. This is another reason for dap instead of dongles... Can't even use uapp for it, if you only have dongle then you have to listen to resampled music.

    Yep, spotify is always the best in terms of ui, ai, playlist. And yes, I am also using the same method: finding songs in the native app and listening to them in uapp. But the experience really sucks. That's why I kinda want to buy a fiio m11pro or other Chinese dap, they can circumvent the...

    I use tidal with uapp and there is no like button, there is only one option at the top right corner to add the song to favorite, you don't know if a song is already in your favorite list or not. And the discover page also sucks in uapp.

    Really tempted to buy the w2, only thing that worries me is the bad ui of uapp (for example no like button/indicator). Might end up getting a fiio m11pro, the m15 & ibasso dx300 are too big for me.
