M11S Hi-Res MP3 Music Player with Dual ES9038Q2M, Android 10 Snapdragon 660, 5.0inch, Lossless DSD/MQA, 5G WiFi/Apple Music/Tidal/ Music 4.4mm 2.5mm/3.5mm/4.4mm Black

I have an A&K SR25 MK1 and whilst I loved the sound, the UI was laggy, the screen small and the overall experience of browsing sub par. Daps are probably seen as surplus to requirements these days, but I like having something that is for just one thing, listening to music. Having the full Android experience, it means you can use any of your preferred streaming options, or load it with your own tunes via the MicroSD Slot. I wanted something portable that I could use around the house with headphones to listen to Roon, or on the go via Roon Arc, both of which it works perfectly with. It also works with Apple Music, You Tube Music, Qobuz and Tidal, all tested, all working and more importantly, snappy to boot. The only drawback with Roon, and its a software issue not the device, is that it uses Android audio and doesn't bypass it which means it gets downsampled (you'd have to have golden ears to tell the difference). If this bothers you, you can also use it as a USB DAC, or add your own DAC for bit perfect playback, or a bluetooth transmitter or receiver. It supports LHDC too, so pairs nicely with Fiio UTWS5. Battery life is good and charges via USB C. Includes 3.5 Single ended, 2.5 balanced and 4.4 balanced outputs. Plenty of power, I can't have it on max volume with any headphone combination I own (sadly(?), more than I care to mention). Size wise, its quite a big boi, but reassuringly so, I probably wouldn't go running with it. A versatile, performant DAP and exactly what I was looking for, actually much much better than I thought it would be.

I've had this for around 9 months now and can safely say i've thrown everything musically at this and can't find a single fault,i noticed a few people say that it didn't have enough bass well being someone who is a drum and bass head i find it throws more than enough bass into my earholes,sometimes too much,i guess it all depends on the IEM'S or OEM'S that you use as i've thrown at least a dozen sets of IEM'S at it and it's pushed them all to the limit and the OEM'S i've used have been pushed to the limit,the only ones that really struggled were my Bowers And Wilkins PX8s which couldn't handle the bass. Someone suggested there phone sounded better,seriously,i've got a samsung galaxy s23 with poweramp installed and it doesn't come close and that's over £500 plus more than the Fiio so i'm going to respectfully disagree that a decent phone sounds better,i've got a number of daps including the Astell and Kern norma and the AK70 and they dont sound as good as this which i have to admit surprises me to this day. All in all a very very good Dap with no faults that i can find,the os is smooth as silk and the sound quality is better than some of the more expensive Daps out there,if your looking for a mid range priced Dap that sound closer to a high end product then look no further. Lastly i wouldn't bother paying out extra on the M11 Plus as a friend of mine has one and you honestly can't tell the difference between the M11s and the M11 Plus.

I have owned a number of DAPS over the last eight or so years including models from A&K, Sony and Shanling. The Fiio M11S is, by some considerable distance, better than any of them. It scores on every dimension: sound quality, functionality, easy of use, UI.

First off, as a product, this device is superb for the most. The android system works well and is responsive, the Fiio music app that is preinstalled works well and the all important sound is very clear The bad point is that is am struggling to get any real bass from it. I have played with all the settings including the EQ settings in the audio apps to try and increase the bass, and it just isnt happening. The headphones I have tried with it all have good bass presence on my old Pioneer XD100 hi res player and any other devices I use them on, and therefore I conclude that the Fiio, whilst nice and clear, just has no bass. The headphones in question are Shure Aeonic 3, Onkyo E700m, beyer dynamic dt770 (80ohm) cans and lastly my Cambridge Audio melomania buds. Yet no bass. And this really does affect certain types of music as I am just left missing the full presence that many songs should have. If I pair it with an old Fiio headphone amp I have, I can get a good amount of bass. So not all is lost. But for a £500 dap, I shouldn't need to rely on an additional amp to get the required bass levels. But the levels of bass really are the only draw back to this device. Everything else is very good. EDIT: I have moved my score from 3 stars to 4 due to a change of headphones. So word to the wise - if you purchase this and are underwhelmed by either the sound of the bass - it may be the headphones you have paired it with. I have just bought a pair of B&W PX7 S2's and both sound quality and bass have improved over my Beyerdynamic DT770 Pros and also my Shure Aeonic 3 in ears. Despite these both being 5 star headphones in their own right. Clearly some headphones just suit the Fiio better than others.

I dithered over buying a FiiO for 2 years before splashing out on this. Yes, it's a boy's toy. Yes, it's expensive (but not as expensive as some similar kit). Yes, it does nothing a premium phone doesn't. But with good wired headphones it delivers music to a quality that phones on bluetooth can't match. Now I can't imagine how I ever managed without it. UPDATE Less tha 3 years on and elation has turned to woe. FiiO has not updated the Androis OS which remains V10; v16 is the current version. Updated Apps now won't work. Th M11S is heading for obselescence already. If this is how FiiO treats its customers then they have seen the last of me

Got it yesterday, added apple music and tidal, and a 1Tb microsd card, and using my Moondrop KATO earphones the sound is superb. I was worried it wouldn't have enough power to drive the headphones to a decent volume, but I've not gone over 70 on the output yet, and I listen to it loud. Edit: using open backed over ear headphones (Beyer Dynamic T1 3rd gen) obviously needs more driving, but I’ve still not put the volume over 85 :-) Rich, detailed and a lovely warmth; for me much more preferable to A&K. And as it’s Android it supports logging into hotel Wi-Fi (I.e. it shows the room popup), whereas the A&K doesn’t. Came with a very usable plastic case. Excellent player, highly recommended.

I wanted a DAP that had a balanced headphone out and could run Qobuz and play from a network share as well as internal memory. This basically does everything. The internal headphone amplifier seems well able to drive my Sennheiser HD600s with a balanced cable. WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity are also excellent. It plays Hi Res and DSD files without any problem.

It's as good as I imagined. The player is fantastic and gives wonderful reproduction. Not a Hi Fi fanatic just love to hear music how it was ment to sound. I would recommend this player. Can't see what some of the very high priced players would give for the extra money.

So, the Fiio M11S... yeah, I dunno, I'm drawing a blank here. Nothing good nor bad to rant or rave about. The touchscreen looks great, it feels good in the hand, the buttons are all solid performers, battery life is... well, not super great but not bad by any means. The interface and apps it comes with are all decent and easy to operate. Like most high end audio gear, if you have bad recordings this is going to make those flaws all the more brutal. Power wise it seems fine. I've tested the 3.5mm SE output with a pair of Moondrop Starfields and a set of Meze 99s and it seemed to be okay with powering those. Also tested the 4.4mm balanced output with the Starfields and am far more impressed with that. I did test the 4.4mm port with more power hungry headphones and it definitely felt like it was struggling a bit, even with the gain on high and the volume jacked. As for sound quality, I've got no complaints and am generally delighted at how it runs my "out and about" gear, just feel a bit meh that it struggled with my bigger cans. That said I'm running its 3.5 port as an SPDIF coax connection into a better DAC and amp when sitting at home, so this little guy is doing what I want it to. For the money I think it's a solid device and would recommend it for sure.

Comme beaucoup de FIIO, ce M11S, reste dans l'excellence des baladeurs audiophile. Avec un son d'une clarté nette et précise on prend plaisir à ré-écouter ses titres. Pour être vraiment titilleur je dirais qu'il y a quelques fréquences à réajuster avec le très bon égaliseur fourni. Bien sûr la qualité du casque rendra un verdict différent. Moi Sennheiser HD 660s2 disponible sur Amazon. La fluidité est de la partie. Par exemple, Qobuz qui est une lourde application, est bien plus rapide que sur un HiBy. Je conseille vivement ce milieu de gamme !

Zeer ingewikkeld. Voor mij als sporadische gebruiker niet geschikt.
