Ok will both of these work with Tidal as well?

As I said, I don't have a M11 Plus to test, sorry. Also, I was wrong when I said Wavelet had PEQ - it has a nine band graphic EQ. I edited my earlier post to correct.

I believe the Wavelet app works on the M11 Plus. I only have the M11 Pro, so I can't test. It should work on Android 9 or higher. It has PEQ and also the ability to load AutoEQ presets.

Edit:

It does not have PEQ, but a nine band normal graphic equalizer.
Poweramp has that peq and the developer is integrating AutoEX-Presets for the next release (they are discussing that at their poweramp board).

How do I flash back to 1.02 without a computer?
Dear friend,

In the chrome browser, type the web address: https://forum.fiio.com/firmwareDown.do
Then you could enter the firmware download page in our forum. Select M11 Plus LTD and you could find the donwload link of FW1.0.2.
And you could downgrade the firmware after downloading the FW1.0.2 in the M11 Plus LTD. (Same as local upgrade)

Best regards

Poweramp works with tidal as far as I remember. But I ditched tidal for AM when Hi-Res on AM became avaliable. But Poweramp has a demo time. So you can just install and try bevor you buy (its something around 3€ in-app).
Sorry but am a noob here. I installed Poweramp and created a PEQ. Now it doesnt effect any of my sound when i flick it on or off. It also gives me an error message when trying to select the customized peq later. For listening i use the Tidal app and was thinking that this Poweramp app would create a global eq over the whole sound of the dap.

I just installed Poweramp Equalizer. I tried Wavelet earlier, but I prefer Poweramp. I had to grant ADM DUMP permissions using the instructions below:

https://forum.powerampapp.com/topic...ns-for-more-audio-applications/#comment-93911

The web-based tool for doing this didn't work, so I had to do it from shell, but the instructions are all there in the above thread.

If you go to the known players settings page in Poweramp Equalizer you will see which players it has detected and will work with.

Ah, sry, my bad. you need the "poweramp equalizer" app for the Systemwide EQ. The Poweramp-App is a software player with an eq.

The last firmware has improved a few things.
What do you think still needs to be improved? (probably these comments will be relevant for the new version with ESS chips too).

1.Global EQ (it will be useful for some Tidal's albums)
2.After rotating the DAP and screen (connectors up) , the volume direction on touch-pad does not rotate and it works the other way around ¿
3. Visible sampling on screen lock
4. Dolby Atmos - technically possible to add?
5 ..........
If I omitted something from the previous comments, please add below .........

‘for me’, NONE of these...

whilst I ‘liked’ the first comment drawing awareness to the lack of inverted volume controls when the screen is flipped -having used my unit exclusively in ‘flipped screen mode’ (tbf; mostly as a transport, not needing the volume slider at all) for the last few of weeks, I feel this isn’t a ‘biggie’ (big demand/want).
I feel human learning assigns ‘volume down’ as the button closer to the middle of the unit, with ‘volume up’ closer to the outer edge... when we work this way, the rotation isnt a factor, and I was never concerned for ‘which button was which’.
In settings, a menu option to flip volume buttons AND another tickbox to ‘only do so when screen inverted’, would be ‘super easy to add’, and shouldn’t be hard to implement.

True, I’m not really an EQ person, and I do have ‘HF Player‘ (android media playback software with ‘quite a few’ advanced functions) that brought incredible EQ to market (one of their strongest sales ‘bullet points’ for using said software) and I have never used it once...
Of course many users will demand ‘good EQ’, and so this is a large point of contention.
achieving ‘flatline sound’ can be essential, so this means much to our hobby..

I do understand the benefit of FiiO implementing these things, for us, as we get to use them in ‘pure music mode’ and ‘global EQ’, perhaps difficult in an MQA world (don’t know/don’t care), would be handy... for me the ‘global DSD convert’ IS a feature than needs attending, presently.....;

My number one thing for FiiO, right now, would be the DSD ‘on the fly’ conversion...
It is an advertised aspect of these players, and the implementation needs a little more love..
whether the system needs a ’bridge’ to let USB digital output to ‘mirror’ via COAX output, (and/or ‘vice versa’/the ‘other way around’, with COAX output ‘mirrorable’ via USB) or ‘more effort into’ the present setup (for on the fly DSD convert), something may need be done...
..
The only reason I had to put my M11+ ‘on the net’ was to use playstore and get my licensed ‘HF player’ software on the unit.
It seemed the FiiO DSD convert only worked via COAX, where as the HF player DSD convert only outputs via USB (both also work via analogue outputs, but the usefulness for such a feature is MAGIC for ‘outboard DACs), and given I purchased the M11+ due to the dual femtosecond clocks/pcb design and chip layout (including shielding and power isolations), the notion of having the M11+ be a ‘you beaut’ (aussie slang meaning ‘brilliant/excellent//beautiful’ et al) transport, isn’t happening at present.... (for when the outboard DAC is better served a DSD format)

bump: anyone getting fiio dsd convert working on latest firmware? (via coax?)

My player, prior to going to the google store/ installing the fiio app for apple music, ran well... afterwards, ‘not so much’.
I nearly bought another m11+ to get an ‘untouched’ (by the authorities) version of the ‘out of box’ software state.

Most important feature to implement, for many, will simply be ‘UAC1 mode support’ OR playstation/switch console support.. (please, I will call out ‘FiiO’ during peak experiences in my life*, if just such an event were to occur.. (*not really))

I downgraded it and it's still got the same issue. So i'm not sure what to do. As it stands now, it's kind of a paperweight.

I also noticed it seems to just be my IEMs with the issue. My HD 650 requires less volume for the good amount of volume. My FiiO FH3, and Blessing 2 Dusk and Moondrop Arias all require more power than my HD 650 and DT 770 250ohm now. Something is clearly off.
