Ahoy! A question, if you don't mind: have you had a chance to drive your Signature Pro with the M17? If so what did you think?
I ask because I will likely be picking some up soon and listen to a LOT of electronic (dance) music. Mainly Drum n Bass, with some Techno, Electro and House (in that order).

I listened to M17 at my local Fiio dealer a few days ago and absolutely loved it. Looked into getting the new Sony WM1AM2 DAP but I'd be waiting a couple of months for delivery after payment. Plus, there's no way for me to listen to one. Using Sony's MDR-Z1R and IER-Z1R, plus a few other mid-fi cans and IEMs and M17 sounded really good with them all. So my new M17 arrives within a few days. Hope I won't be missing Sony's house sound

As a former M17 owner a current N8ii owner, I can say that both devices are excellent.
N8ii is smaller and bests the M17 with the IEMs and headphone that I currently own. It is also something that I can carry around with me far more easily.
Is the Cayin worth twice as much? No- but as we all know, we are talking about diminishing returns here. There is also the brand component- a BMW tends to cost more than a VW.

Since you had both, how's the thermal situation? It seems the Cayin is quite warm, but is it warmer than the M17 on the go? Of course not in full DC mode.

Going by how long they have been on the market for and the pricing of their amplifiers, I beg to differ
All relative, we are comparing two Chinese companies here

It did make you WOW right, that's what it's strength is. My friend is being wowed everyday with his LCDX on battery power itself
Different strokes for different folks.
Haven't been listening to my m17 for a few weeks and planned to listen to it for a while this evening. But sadly found the rear panel was bulged out! I'm afraid it might be the battery issue and didn't turn it on. Need to contact the local agent for repair tomorrow . . .
Not good to hear mate hope it gets sorted out soon for you, that sort of thing with a new battery should not happen. Let's hope it's the only one we hear about.
Although I would have a closer inspection and make sure it's not just the glue holding the back panel on that's the issue and not the battery, still shouldn't happen though.
Hi guys, Is anyone here using Jriver media center on their home PC? If yes, are you using the DLNA function with the M17 DLNA? I am having trouble getting the M17 to detect the Jriver's DLNA and vice versa.
