between Shaning M0, FiiO M5 & Hadizs AP80,

I've come across several opinions reading AP80 is by far the best option of those three as far as the SQ is concerned. But it's more expensive too.

Thanks in response Guys ... I was confronted with 3 choices of portable mini DAP & DAC which became a package (3 in one), between Shaning M0, FiiO M5 & Hadizs AP80, and still waiting for a choice of DAC cable dongle from iBasso DC02 3.5mm .. Because of these three portables there are plus mines: M0 is only at BT V4.0 (No full support Aptx-HD & Effect frequency: 20HZ ~ 20KHz), AP80 BT V4.1 (Absence / lack of accessories in Clipcase / hooks to be dressed accordingly my passion & activities, if I'm not mistaken, not yet full Aptx-HD support too) & M5 BT V4.2 ... If I force to take between the 3 choices, I want to take M5 BT is very responsible, there are still many possibilities in the portable that will be come they can adjust for 1001℅ full pure devices Hi-Res & Hi-Fi BT V5.0 + Aptx-HD into a package for the mini size DAC AMP (This is a benchmark of conspicuous shortcomings according to me personally, directly or indirectly directly, some well-known Brands do not include a complete description of the BT version they use based on Hardware, which makes us wonder) ... Like a basic puzzle game & sometimes quite trap which one should be worthy of being chosen ... If I may ask, is there a comparison especially of the 3 portable totality above with the cable type dongle from iBasso 32-bit DC02 and Spectra X 32-bit Guys ???

Please guide & the best solution, since I am a new user especially for DAC & DAP mini size ... Previously I was not interested in jumbo size DAP or type of headphones, more interested with earphones that are small, simple, practical & high-quality, certainly according to taste, passion & needs in one package, to be attached to clothes, which almost rarely people think in a mature & simple, detailed & deep, to avoid outside the pocket (because often plug jacks in particular the 3.5mm straight plug jack model is bent / bent / broken when sitting activities using a mobile device in a fairly dense jeans bag, as well as driving a vehicle such as motorized & lost sound next to the earphone, which has become a severe trauma for me, a variety of models replace the plug jack class Premium or Standard) ... ☺

I've come across several opinions reading AP80 is by far the best option of those three as far as the SQ is concerned. But it's more expensive too.

I have all 3. In terms of ease of use, sound quality, robust EQ/DSP features, and the ability to control it remotely from your phone, I find the AP80 to be the ideal solution for me. I think you would probably be very happy with it.

The screens of the shanling M0 and FiioM5 are functional, but too small and imprecise compared to other solutions. The slightly increased screen size of the AP80 makes a huge difference in ease of use.

I posted my thoughts on the M5 (including video). Another great release from FiiO (IMO).

@FiiO

Track and others titles don't scroll the words , so how we are supposed to read them?
Is it possible to add scroll?
Thanks.

Thanks for the best input Guys ...

Initially I was indeed interested in AP80 based on intuitive & my taste ... But the constrained minimum in terms of BT V4.1 hardware & lack of it again in terms of the clipcase (To adjust my activities that are a lot of motion / free ) ... For the time being detained first, either have to wait for the next few months / 1 year ahead : With full capacity & quality exactly the same as those in full M5, just add the BT V5.0 + Plus Full Aptx features- HD Hi-Fi & Hi-Res & the additional clipcase are all one package ... Being the work of the engineers in the future ...

I decided to use it for a while with the iBasso DC02 3.5mm 32-bit cable in my classic device: Xiaomi Pocophone F1, still have to wait for the PO in my country until now, quite a long time coming ...

Is there a reference, about iBasso DC02 3.5mm 32-bit, or a comparison between the IBasso DC01 2.5mm 32-bit VS dongle cable. DAP Mini HIDIZS AP80 32-bit, in terms of all which sound is the most striking / dominating Guys ???

Hi there, I have bought a M5 and could not get it to pair with the RM1. Can anyone let me know how do I get the M5 to work with the RM1?

 

[Ichos]

Excuse me , what is the RM1?

 

[Sound Trooper]

Excuse me , what is the RM1?

It is a mini BT remote which Fiio makes

 

[Ichos]

Ah OK , I think that it is not compatible.
The M5 supports only audio transmission or reception.
I am using it right now with the Bluetooth Sennheiser IE80S without any drop outs but unfortunately when transmitting it supports only aptx and not HD.

Dear friend,

Thanks for your kind feedback. We will consider adding scroll in later firmware update.

Best regards

Hi Fiio,
Could you help solve a problem with Russian tags? Instead of Russian words I can only see Chinese characters.
Here's the uploaded file in .m4a extension.

I will send an m4a file to your PM too.

Ahh.. that figures...

Just bought a M5 on a whim and I'm kinda impressed by it. Given its price and size, it sounds really good. I noticed that the lows and highs are kinda boosted and this makes it sort of a fun signature.

My M5 came with bluetooth FW version: 1.1.2

Is this the latest?
