btw. while checking for an appropriate headphone for the M17, also as replacement for my T1P 2nd. I found the Sennheiser 800s currently beeing sold for 1.249 EUR (in Germany). I think a good price!?
Good price and good synergy especially for classical music, ambient, soundtracks, and jazz.

I must now test coaxial input, i have very good USB-spdif converter so it should be great.

Amazing sound from Roon via USB converter! It has been a long time since I heard a device that sounded so well and at the same time was well priced.

Hello friends.

Hope you are all doing well

I recently purchased Fiio m17, currently an IEM user and was seriously impressed by m17 audio performance. Best I have heard so far :)

I am now looking for a good pair of Headphone and shortlisted AUDEZE LCd x 2021 and Hifiman arya stealth magnet edition.

Please help me to decide and finalize my purchase.

I have budget of $1600, also I am open for other alternative if any.

Thanks in advance

I have LCD-X 2020, and it has really good synergie with my M17 ,spacious and detailed sound especially via 4.4 balanced cable. Not as great as connected to my desktop unit, but M17 has enough power and resolution to drive LCD-X really good, especially with good quality recordings. Really appreciate this combination.

For me personally, I like M17 synergie the best with my Sennheiser HD650, it has some kind of warmer sound signature that I really like but still keeps details, layering, resolution and spaciouness at the very high level.
