Would someone mind posting a picture of the original/stock analog 12v charging cable? I’m having a little trouble finding mine after an impromptu house cleaning.

I Tried DX300Max yesterday, Quite spend some time with it...
Man, i amazed, it was Warm yet still manage give details... thumbs up to iBasso, no matter which DAC, their sound tuning still more or less the same, and getting better... unfortunately didn't bring my Headphone to try myself... Love it...

I see M17 in the background. Did you compare them?

Sharp Eye u got.

20211204_140949.jpg20211204_140956.jpg
in short, the only appealing is DSD convertion, which increase details, and Power that can properly drive a high impedance headphone directly...
aside from that, IMO, like M15, seems the highend Fiio portfolio dont have a sound house trademark... compare to DX300Max, M17 sounds dry...
Anyway, this is based on my gear, and when I didn't find the tonality my cup of tea, I stopped listening to it.

on the contrary, SP2k T, hybrid config (SS & Korg tube) in 4.4TRRS, the sound tonality really appealing for me...
Technicality wise, DX300Max still better, especially in detail layers staging.. for DAP / portable, still no contender except DX220Max... IMHO... & based in my ear...
Sp2k T, just using IEM, for headphone, off course other will be better.. just mentioning

Great experience for me...

edit,
Hiss related, using Solaris Classic.
DX300Max=SP2k t (SS) > SP2k t (Hybird) > M17=SP2k t (Tube only)
from waterfall to really play through the song....

Please share your thoughts on the match with the Ti and a brief sound report when you are ready. Really interested with these headphones.

Hi friends, I contacted to Vishnu Leather Craft.

I asked and they can make the case for 300MAX approximately 170$.
But they haven't the size data yet, so they couldn't make it.
Maybe in next month, I will visit their work station and provide my 3MAX Ti and Basic case..

After I make an order for my Vishnu case of 3MAX, you guys probably can order from them.
'Cause they have data of it at that time :D
Hello @zxcvy19,
Do you have any updates for the Vishnu leather case for 300MAX?

First of all, not exactly sure about what kinda packaging from Mouser / Digi-Key but let's just understand the differences between the "bulk" ones and "retail" ones

https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/340-438275-TRAY
https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/micron-technology-inc/MTSD1T0AKC7MS-1WT/11591455

The "bulk" ones don't cost THAT much in Japan but obviously there will be absolutely no (international) warranty whatsoever

OTOH, the "retail" ones would cost quite a bit more while personally I really don't think we could expect (international) warranty

Basically 1TB ones used to be available for 20,999 yen according to Google Cache

Finally we're talking about roughly 400 bucks (45,526 yen) + 600 yen plan fees + international shipping for 2 + 1 cards with the "bulk" packaging / absolutely no (international) warranty whatsoever, though ALWAYS remember to select JPY (Japanese Yen) as the currency since it should be a better deal if we're allowing the credit card company to handle the currency conversion

As usual there will be some risks involved whenever we're going for anything with "bulk" packaging, and then don't forget about stuff like Customs Duty etc.

The higher the resolutions of your file source “recordings”. The better the performances if you have these 2 elements

1/ MicronSD I-300 or EDGE

2/ Neutron as set at correct OverSampling factors. Do not worry about the maximize 16x. Even at 4X, you will still hear 192Khz recording to be superior than 44.1@16X.

BTW, PGGB Offline / PGGB-RT @ 705.6 / 768 KHz might be worth a try

Infact that is what I did, I used the trial period for the PGGB software to make it work. It sounds bloody good.

Thanks so much! I was thinking about placing another microSD order on digikey the other day and now I spent way less for a 1TB card plus two 512 GB cards! Amazing!

Btw: we don’t get the retail packaging on mouser and digikey anyways, more like bulk except you get cardboard with foam padding.
