The successor of the acclaimed M3 model has been announced.

Reserved for specs.

Reserved for FW updates.

I think this should be fair, considering Head-fi rules

Looks like a stretched-out M2s

It would appear balanced outputs are a key feature. Writer notes this verbiage was easily located at the top of the image. Takes credit for finding the obvious but nevertheless unashamed.

Quick recap from the deleted original thread:

- Better battery life
- Low output impedance
- still just one MicroSD slot
- UI basically as M2s
- 2.5mm balanced (not 4.4mm)

Further specs to follow

Just curious. This model would have everything M2s featues as well?

 

[BartSimpson1976]

yes

ESS DAC?

ESS DAC?

Maybe AK4495, and probably AK4497 will be reserved for M5s.

Re: DAC. We'll see...

I think I read elsewhere, this will not be an Android based device. I do wonder if "wireless" means something more than just Bluetooth. Would love if this had DLNA streaming built in...

I don't know, it looks a little too elongated for comfort. The current M2S is a perfectly-sized device.

Anyway, it looks like it won't have a touchscreen.

Still, seeing that I've been very impressed with the M2S thus far, the M3S is an eagerly awaited DAP.
