Will Neutron provide better sound quality than Fiio Music?

Also having just installed Neutron and chosen DLNA and Foobar2000 runining on my Windows PC the scan is taking forever.

I have about 4GB of music stored in folders.

I only want to select by folder (I do not trust the tagging).

In this case do I need to wait for the scan to finish ?

Ok so I downloaded Viper HiFi and it seems to open up but it's totally in Chinese and I can't get past the second screen which seems to be some sort of login screen... Is there a way to log in and then change the language??
Dear friend,

No. This app only support Chinese currently.

Best regards

I installed the new FW 1.0.5 and i can tell that the distance range of using the LDAC Quality codec somewhat improved.

However if i use the LDAC Quality and Fiio Link at the same time the range is less and loading the albums picture on the Fiio's link Client (phone), it makes crackings due to the image transfer... but its only on that transfer, maybe on LDAC Quality is using all the bandwith.

I'm happy with this change because with FW 1.0.4 using the m9 and the speaker with LDAC Quality the distance range was like nothing (between the m9 and the speaker).

Hope that it may improve more on the next FW update,

I expected an update on the Fiio Music app that from the "now playing" display we could go easily to the albums display of the artist of the playing song by swiping up or right, or maybe touching the albums name on the description. @FiiO Please consider this on a future update for the Fiio Music player on the M9. It may improve the UI/UX. Is the only thing i miss that it was on my Ipod Classic.

With Firmware 1.0.5 the versions of Neutron and others expire. How do we install versions of payment on the Fiio M9? or others that we have registered on Android. We do not have Google Play installed ....

You will have to buy the non Play Store version from their websites.

Dear friend,

Thanks for your kind feedback. We will report to our product manager about that.

Best regards

This is a bit of an oddball question, but has anyone tried the USB DAC functionality of the M9 with a Chromebook? I'm wondering if Chromebooks are more like Macbooks with native support built in, or if a driver is needed (in which case it would be a non-starter on a Chromebook)

Quick question, would adding an external dac to the M9 make it sound better?

I was thinking of something like the cobalt for MQA?

I returned my M9 because of the terrible WiFi dropouts but from memory, it already decodes Master Quality Audio files from Tidal and HiRes files from Qobuz and sound quality was excellent, when it would actually play them over WiFi. Offline files played well also. Why would you want to add in another DAC?

The balanced output (2.5mm) will drive nearly all IEMs powerwise so I doubt if you would need an external amp. I have used various amps, just to test them against the M9, and the M9 more than holds it's own in terms of sound quality.....IMHO.
