Comprehensive Progress! FiiO Portable Desktop-Class Player M17 Is Officially Released!

The smart desktop-class M17 is an entirely new chapter of FiiO digital audio players. Its desktop-grade DAC, amplification, power supply, etc. give it the output power and sound quality to rival and perhaps even surpass highly-regarded desktop systems – but in a portable package.

The left and right audio channels each contain a desktop-class, 8-channel ES9038PRO flagship DAC. This means that each audio channel has 8 parallel outputs summed together for superior resolution and minimal distortion for extremely pure audio reproduction.

The desktop-class THX 788+ headphone amp has an output power of up to 3000mW per channel with a lower output impedance – allowing it to more effortlessly power all kinds of headphones.

Desktop-grade power supply and gain: the M17 contains two power supplies – a battery power supply and a power supply powered by external DC power. Under battery power, there are 4 gain levels: low, medium, high, and headphone mode. When under DC mode, the enhanced over-ear headphone mode gain is unlocked which can go as high as 16dB in balanced output.

Desktop-caliber internals: high-end TI OPA2211 op-amp, supercapacitor, ultra-low noise LT3045 LDO, NDK femtosecond crystal oscillator, etc.

Desktop-level connectivity: not only supports commonly used 2.5mm/3.5mm/4.4mm headphone outputs, but also adds 6.35mm output, RCA coaxial port, USB3.0 and USB2.0 ports.
