Just grabbed myself a M11. What are some of the must have apps that I should get? It's been a long time since I used Android so don't know what's good anymore. Will be my first real DAP.
Now you must get this.

Hi guys,

I currently own an onkyo dp-x1a and thinking of upgrading to the fiio m11 or m11 pro.

Two questions...

1 - is this worth the upgrade? as my onkyo constantly has Bluetooth issues.

2 - what's the bass response like?

I normally use poweramp, and i listen to hip hop bassy tunes mostly.

Also this fiio m11 looks amazing.

Also what hi res iems would match the m11 as I've heard there's a hiss with lower end of the iems.

I own both, and from my point of view, the two sound very similar.
The biggest difference you'll appreciate is the battery life, the M11 crushes poor Onkyo in that regard.
In terms of power, the M11 also outperform DP-X1A, for example, it moves my HiFIMAN HE400i much better and more easily, even for the unbalanced 3.5mm output.
Since the arrival of M11, I have the onkyo grabbing dust in a drawer.

So I hear the Pro will hopefully be out in October and will be $680...

Anybody else confirm that?

As I posted on the pro thread amp3 will have a few in stock in next couple of weeks for £599 and code AMP312EXCL319 brings it down to £527 if that helps.

How does pure music mode work? I upgraded the firmware, but I don't see an option to switch to pure music mode in the options pulldown menu. Did it not upgrade? I think it did, in that I downloaded the upgrade, installed it, and the M11 rebooted, but I still don't see the option for pure music mode.

Dear friend,

Can you find the Android mode icon? After clicking it, you could switch to pure music mode.

In pure music mode, you could only use the FiiO Music app.

Best regards

Wanting a new player and debating versus the Pro, I've decided to order a 'normal' M11 - frankly I think that is good enough for my needs. The M11 is still quite new, so I think to want to upgrade now one has to have some serious twitchy fingers :L3000:

Many, many people (especially around here) buy new stuff for the thrill - not because they need. It’s having the ‘latest and greatest’ that counts. I promise you all these guys dumping the M11 for the Pro will be dumping the Pro as soon as the M15 comes out, and again for the M15 Pro. That’s the ‘hobby’.
