FIIO M9 REVIEW
FiiO has been pushing their M-series DAP really hard and fast of late with no less than 3 in the space of about 6-7 months including the M3K, M6, and the M7 which all have been reviewed by our team here at Headfonics.
Logically then, the M9 is the next step in the media player ladder for FiiO.
I was lucky enough to get a quick “poke and a play’ at the Hong Kong AV Show last August where it made its debut. It was already clear by then that FiiO was embarking on a radical overhaul of their DAP positioning.
Up to the M7, you could argue that the new M series took on a more of a consumer or lifestyle influence than the older X-series pure audiophile stance.
However, the M9, with the re-introduction of a balanced output and dual DAC implementation blurs the lines considerably between both camps.
There is no direct comparison between the M9 and any equivalent X-Series DAP apart from the price at $299. This is now an entirely distinct and modern DAP line-up from FiiO.
