Thanks for the great packaging and prompt responses!

Initial listening is beyond expectations. Easy of use works for me, two buttons, no settings, delightful compared to complex RME ADI-2. The EF400 sounds less analytical, or more tube-like sound compared to the RME. I dislike the input possibilities: it is only USB in. I miss optical and coax...

Any changes to the sound signature?

both!

I have a different experience. Very helpful support from Linsoul, including shipping support by providing a DHL Express ticket paid by Linsoul. 👍 Hope I will receive them soon!

Let us know your experience as I am considering this as well.

edit: thanks! i think you posted the same screen capture of version 2.31.00?

Downloaded and installed this apk, how can I check if this unfolds MQA properly?

Thanks for the review. How is the fit of Monarch? I own the v14 and the L3. The v14 is a bit too big for my ears, the L3 is the perfect size for me.

We get your point. If you want to share your facts any further, please start a new topic of your own.

Thanks for all the feedback and info here. I made the purchase and received them today. First impressions are great. Playing with the switch settings, a bit confused. When is it 0,0 or 1,1? I believe mine arrived in the 1,1 setting?

No changes in the MQA unfolding capabilities with this Tidal update :sleepy:. UAPP stays the best approach, but I'm missing the option to make albums available offline.

thanks for the feedback, I decided to pull the trigger today in the 618 sale. Can’t wait to try them!

Same here with Tidal MQA. I have a fast WiFi network but it looks like the WiFi of the M15 is not that stable and fast enough.

Hi v14 owners! I am enjoying the L3’s (with Fiio M15) so much, that I can’t stop thinking if the upgrade to the v14 will be the end game for me? Anyone who have or know both and willing to share your thoughts? Thanks!

All good! 👍

Same issue here. In my experience the WiFi on the M11 is very weak compared to all my other devices.

Thanks for suggestion Nik Bärtsch's Ronin and Randori album...I like it very very much!

Seems Audeze are selling them again for $1.499 on their Holiday Special page: https://www.audeze.com/products/audeze-holiday-special-2018

"MQA playback is supported both via downloaded MQA audio files and through the embedded Tidal app, allowing users to stream high resolution audio via Tidal Masters." Sorry for the noob question; so I am not listening to a MQA stream via the installed APK version of Tidal?

Talking about balanced...can someone recommend an (entry level) balanced cable that would fit into the balanced 2.5mm output of an Astell player (SE100)?

Interesting! What is the consensus with driving the X with an Astell player, balenced or unbalanced? I own the SE100 and have both cables, and still not sure which one I prefer.

Did the upgrade, all good. I have the impression that the Tidal APK (version 2.9.11) is a bit more responsive on this firmware. Still feels a bit sluggish, so as a big Tidal user I hope this will improve in newer versions.

Is the usb cable (to power the se100) disconnected?

Name a few? Same price level? Interested!
