At the moment i have a Claire MK2 from Forza with 3.5mm plug, ordered yesterday a Noire Hybrid balanced, in a couple of days i should be able to give you my opinion.

It worked, thank you!

I will check on mine, thank you.

Thanks!

@Terriero : Not necessary but I’m also on the Fiio M17 thread and there is a lot of movement so I think I was expecting a quick reply here also. @MatW and @Terriero : Thanks for your advices about Forza, for the price against Magnus and what you said i’m almost sure I will consider this one...

Hahaha, a little bit humor to get the thread moving. But yes, i read a lot of posts in this thread and Noire hybrid seems to appear the most. I was wondering if with a thicker cable like Magnus, the investment would have sense for my setup.

Ok thanks man, I will think about that

I think you should go with Forza Noire Hybrid or Arctic Magnus S or Arctic Magnus or maybe something else.

Yes same, but if i listen to an MQA title in Tidal which has a lower KHz rate than 192, i don’t have the Logo “M” (left to “192K” on your screenshot) :thinking:

I use M17 mainly with Tidal and i don’t understand something : When I listen to MQA titles, I have the MQA logo next to Khz rate displayed only (based on the tests I made) with 192Khz titles. Someone has the same “issue” or an explanation?

As we are speaking audio formats, someone would be kind enough to explain the interest of the option to convert all files to DSD? In what cases can this be an advantage? Thanks!

Hello Guys, Happy to join the thread. I have the Denon 9200 since 3 weeks. Absolutely amazing. Sound, comfort, build quality, top. It’s paired with Fiio M17 and Forza Claire MK2 (ViaBlue 3.5 plug), wonderful pairing for me. Now I’m looking for a balanced Cable (4.4), I would like your...

I didn't even think about that... :sweat_smile: The only downside is that i can't lock the orientation display, it comes back in the initial position but that's no so a real issue. I'll do that first before installing the second screen, thanks man

What do you mean by demo version?

Ok i see… sad that the opening is not above the M17. Nice! Thanks for the advice

Ok i see… sad that the opening is not above the M17.

Guys, do you also have issues with the M17 sliding out of the cover? When I take it in the hand if i don’t hold the cover against the M17, due to M17’s weight it slides out from the Cover easily. I will see if I can install a little magnet or Velcro.

What i mean is the decibel level reaching my ears at the moment I’m listening to the music. The “issue” is that with that kind of material the sound is so good at high level that I almost forget that sometimes I certainly listen too loud… haha. So the idea would be to have an indication to keep...

You’re welcome. Ok cool, thanks for the informations. Of course i can send you the logs. I’ll send them to support@fiio.com I have a last question for 2021 :) : Is there a way in Android mode to know the current decibel level ? Thanks and happy new year to everyone.

Thanks for the reply, but you are also using an Authenticator app to log into your Syno? In Fiio Music I don’t have a field where to put the code so i can’t understand how it would be possible to login and bypass this security setting.

I'm new to the world of headphones and Dap's but i can tell that the sound is absolutely fantastic paired with my Denon AH-9200. I don't understand something about "Pure Music Mode", i'm still able to use Tidal with this mode? @FiiO I tried to link my Synology to Fiio Music in "Pure Audio...

Hello Everyone, I received my M17 today, amazing beast visually, Did not had time to try it for the moment, but i have a question about the screen protection. It seems that two are already installed, one back and one front. So, the one that come in the box is a spare one or should i install...

Hello, Happy to join the community ! My setup is Denon AH-9200 and ifi Gryphon, i'm now looking forward for a DAP. Have a nice day and best regards.
