Spotify has crossfade, I knew there was something I was using recently that had it. I'll have to look on my Ak dap, but I know the Sonys and the Shanling daps don't have it and it's not on hiby music.

So, Hiby just released a firmware update for R3 and has placed discounts, now goes for 160 bucks. They are clearly trying to steal some sales from fioo.

Let's what the april firmware update brings to the m6

Spotify indeed does have cross-fade and is implemented really well. Use it all the time on my playlists.

I'm selling my Fiio M6 used less than 10 hours.

Feel free to check it out.

Nah I’m referring to albums recorded gapless, not crossfade. Albums from artists such as Carbon Based Lifeforms (fav) and other ambient/downtempo releases as well as some rock oriented albums where you hear cymbals and guitar chords trailing into the next song.

@Brooko or anyone else who owns the K3, is the M6 comparable in sound? I really like the sound of the K3 and would like something similar in dap form. Maybe the M9 is closer since it uses an AKM dac chip like the K3?

 

[greenflash]

hello hello, just got my M6 today, loved everything so far, with the exception of the occasional audio glitches once in a while in the beginning of some songs when i skip to a new song, sometimes. Otherwise, it's a wonderful little DAP.

any chance this can be addressed in a firmware update? it would mean a lot (really, it would basically turn this DAP from really great to super awesome).

That happens with the FiiO music app or Spotify/Tidal etc? Bluetooth or wired?

I would like some DAPs to implement a bit of crossfade though, gapless surely is rare in my collection, I do not listen to one album at a time that often, only a few albums are made to be listened like that

Crossfade is kinda nice on shuffle.

I'll try and check a few daps against the K3 today, and get back to you.

Looking forward to it, thanks.

i have only used the fiio app so far, wired and it happens there. never tried streaming or anything else. Nobody else has experienced this?

Edit: it seems that everytime the glitch happens, it seems to me that the cpu choked, and just glitched out the audio right at the opening of some songs when you sometimes skip to them.

I have had it happen even when not skipping. Not often, but it has happened. I've also had songs skip mid song without prompting on a couple of occasions. One time the player just shut down completely. This is all using the Fiio music app.

Might help if you gave a perspective. How many times has it happened, and over how many days/hours of use?

For the record - the M6 hasn't skipped for me (so far), Spotify, paired with Mobius (so wireless and Bluetooth). Roughly 50 hours listening.

Maybe that's because you are not using the local files using the Fiio app? both our issues with the skipping come from the Fiio app...and wired, too.

I have just done a factory reset, and I am trying to see it this solves the problem.
