Won’t be getting this if Fiio doesn’t get the hiss under control

Hiss? THX is suppose to be silent.

Title needs to be changed from $600 to $769

Fiio M11 Pro pre sale today now, you can check from hifigo.com to learn more

hifigo.com looks like a ripoff to be honest look at the M11 cost 699.99 reduced to 569.99 LOL

Does it still have 2 micro sd slots? I heard they might cut one but I don't see anything mentioned about it

 

[KC33]

Yea, I wouldn't buy it from them

No it does not.

Try the 'Search this thread...' function. A quick search for 'slot' or 'card' reveals that the Pro has only one slot.

Looks very interesting, but I’ll hold off to see what this new M13/15 flagship player is before making a call.

Exactly

 

[abitdeef]

No

I think that price maybe the VAT to the EU consumer. 20% VAT is very high!

No idea on that but here in the uk the M11 is 449.99 and thats includes the 20% VAT

Still no MQA or Google Play though it seems. Had an M11. Lovely sound when it worked but trying to play hires Qobuz through it was a disaster. And with no MQA I can’t get the best out of Tidal either. N6ii looks good but no MQA again.

When I first started looking for a DAP, I wanted an Android based DAP that can do everything well. Something that can stream Hi-res music via Tidal/Qobuz, full MQA rendering, bypass Android SRC, Google playstore etc. etc. Since then I've realized relying on Wi-fi streaming and android based platforms bring multitude of issues, which detract the users from enjoying the music. For example, weak wi-fi strengths, battery drain issues, software glitches, APP issues (TIDAL/QOBUZ) etc. etc. It was just frustrating. Since then I've focused on amassing offline music library so I can move away from streaming music. Now I use TIDAL to pick out the albums I like, then purchase a HI-RES FLAC (24/192) or DSD files for offline listening, with no drama. I'm just waiting for the next generation of TOTL DAP to hit the market for purely offline use.

Why next gen TOTL ? many may shift to android anyway. A fair few that tick the box currently includen: Cayin N8, LPGT, Cowon Plenue L, WM1Z. In that list I would include Colorfly U6 and U8. I know they are android 5 underneath but its bespoked to a single app and no crap. Saying that I pulled apart a Cowon Plenue '''embeded linux" image and the file header begins ANDROIDU5 lol

Why next gen TOTL ?

Only because they've all been around for a while and I feel like we're overdue for the next round of TOTL daps. I know AK SP2K is just out, but unless they ditch the 2.5 in favor of 4.4 (I know highly unlikely), I'm not interested.
