Hi all, I've been using my Grace m9xx for a couple years now and love it!
i pair mine with the AKG K702 65th anniversary edition and it sounds fantastic.
i also use Tidal for Master tracks. Am i the only one here with this combo?
My volume stays between 70-80.

I purchased my m900 last month (from Thomann, not Massdrop) and I really enjoy it. Can someone recommend a travel case for it? I'd like to take it on my work travels... not as a portable, as a when the day is done and relaxing at the hotel.

I just bought FiiO x7 1St gen and willing to connect FiiO x7 via USB with M9xx but I couldn't hear anything. I tested x7 with DAC function with computer, it's ok . And The M9xx works ok with my computer.

I got OTG cable with one head is host. Which head should I plug in M9xx? Any can help me to connect M9XX with FiiO X7 as transport only. Thanks

I use the same setup for my evening listening but while working have the M9XX in front of my Slee ULDE.

I agree it drives the Anni very well. Which Anni have you got, flat pad or angled? Mine are the flat ones. 600 ish serial.

edit: my preferred volume range in more like 75-90, 85 being the sweet spot!
Serial 778. Its hard to find any portable set up as good as this combo, and i have a few.

The original MD m9XX delivery included a Monoprice wall charger and USB cable for the power input. Any low noise 2.0A USB power source/charger will work.

You will also want to be sure you have the latest drivers for the m9XX for higher bit rate decoding.

I’ll have to dig up that box. Thx
