Dear friend,

Do you have other device which support coaxial input for connecting to the M17, or other device which coaxial output for connecting to the adi 2 pro to check? And does the issue remain when using other app in the M17?
We apologize for any inconvenience in the meantime!

Best regards

Unfortunately, I do not have any other device but I could do a test with coaxial input very soon. I will let you know within 2 days.

I am using a Fiio M17 with external hard drive where I store all the Qobuz offline music. I would like to know if I can clone the hard drive in case of emergency if the orignal hard drive fails. So I will always have a backup of the Qobuz music available and that I do not have to re-download all the music over and over again.

I don't know about Qobuz, I tried that with Tidal, and it did not work for me. I had to redownload again. PAIN.

FYI - From now till Monday at Mimic Audio can get the M17 (and everything else on their website) 20% off retail price with the coupon code gobblegobble.

So probably will be the best time for quite awhile to pick up this awesome DAP for those who haven't pulled the trigger yet.

Today, I am using the fiio m17 without external hard drive (but with an an external sdxcard of 1TB) and there are no issues with the coax cable to the rme adi-2 pro. However, now I have some connection problems with a Supra usb-cable which I have not had before (the usb connection keeps on dropping). The most important is that I can play music! I am only using flac files of 24 bit maximum resolution. And the rme adi-2 pro can handle up to dsd256. This was while the rme adi-2 pro was connected through xlr to the Topping LA90 and speakers.

I was thinking about getting this dap.
I use apple music ONLY.
Can someone confirm whether there is an equalizer that works for when streaming apple music?

Wavelet.

Wavelet.

Have you tried wavelet with the m17 streaming Apple music?

 

[Gymboy]

I was using it with Tidal, worked fine for Apple music couldn't tell.

Root it and use JamesDSP for EQ and a host of other DSP options.

The only bad (!) thing about M17 is, I no longer have the interest in buying any other DAP. It is about one year now I have the M17 and it is still my feeling.

Good for your wallet

I agree too .. though, I am sometimes having a look for a less bulky one, with some more battery playing time in high gain and with all other characteristics of the M17.
Actually, I wonder if the Hiby RS8 can be like a winner, though output voltage seems to be limited to 7.5V, but nobody knows if this can be available at 24 ohms or not. With the CR08 dock the RS8 can be a rather versatile Streamer/DAP which could be easily used with an external amp.

after M17 there is no desire to switch to another source. it is very good and its size is not a problem for me. But in general I would like to see a similar device without a battery. only with an external power supply. miniature stationary player with screen without battery

Well I am a bit surprised but pleasantly so. I got the PL50 and not only is the build quality through the roof good but there is a discernible difference in sound quality (for the better). I was truly skeptical but after a quick A/B test there is a difference. Can someone explain to me why a power supply makes my M17 sound better. I am at a loss.
