I want one! Very descriptive review - I like your style!
Once again another awesome review! Great DAPS! Happy Easter, Sandu!
Thanks, friend. The same to you and your family!
Sandu! Thanks for posting this video
My pleasure
In your opinion - what's the best DAP in the same price range? Mainly for rock and jazz music. I thought about shanling m6 ultra but m5 seems to be good (and cheaper) option...
Hi Sandu, could you recommend a good desktop amp/dac that I can use with my cell phone?
Which one do you recommend more for metal listening, this or the Onix Overture? Saludos
Hi, I didn't listen to you and bought the M23. I really hate its weightless bass and dry timbre. I will send it back. Do you think the Shanling m6 ultra would be a better choice if I want punchy bass?
Does it have a 20k song scan limit Sandu? Had that on the hiby rs2, it's annoying
With what kind of Headphones would u pair it? Thx
Don't tell my bank manager this, but on Monday, I will be buying a FiiO M17, digital audio player extroadinaire.
Still the most powerful DAP and one of the most resolving ones as well. Great choice. Enjoy!
@@Soundnews, I don't really have much choice, since I own a pair of (yet-to-be-fabricated) Mod House Tungsten headphones, so...
@@TheVeganVicar I think Tungsten is a desktop only headphone, you need a proper setup to run them, it will probably work on the M17 but I don't think it's worth taking them on trips...
@theveganvicar Are you expecting your bank manager to be disappointed that you didn’t buy the Astel and Kern 3000T?
@@SergeySedlovsky, we will see.
How would this compare with something like Mojo 2 for HD600?
🎉 enjoyable like always.
Thank you for the comparison 🙏
I see hiby r4 😮 how far its from those 3? And there will be a review for that soon?
Thanks, mate! HiBy R4 video will be dropping after I return home from Munich (9-12 May - Munich High End Show). R4 is definitely as clean and resolving, it feels as fast and snappy, the transients are going wild on this one, but it isn't as organic sounding, especially in the midrange. My son loves it to death and already asks if he can use it for music listening. Loving the look of it and the sound is insanely good considering the price. I find it too cheap for what I'm getting in return.
Advise which player is better suited for metal in the price range up to $700? Thank bro!
How about HiBy R4?
Please review the ibasso 180 so we cam compare since they around the same price budget
Hi bro! Is the M5Ultra suitable for listening to metal and how does it compare to the M6Ultra? Which player is better and preferable for metal? Hugging, good luck!
If not FIIO than... Shanling! Am I just being simplistic, or those are the best companies in the market right now for price/performance ratio? And have different sound implementation, so you can easily choose your audio faith. More neutral and detailed, or more musical and colourful. Glad those two exist on the market.
Also check Onix XM5 dap
Excelente review ya estaba esperando una acerca de este nuevo Audio player , muy interesante por esa interfaz simple y que carece de android pero con gran potencia a comparación del M23 and el R6 pro, muy claro con los detalles del nuevo reproductor de Shanlin, saludos ! 👍🏽🎶
👋 More DAP reviews will be coming shortly. I'm glad you liked the video
I'd be interested in the marketshare of DAPs in 2024. I can understand their performance plus compared to Smartphones however for me as an audiophile, on the go I do not care about the last HiRes bytes extra...
People expected DAPs to go extinct after Apple dropped the iPod, but...the DAP market got stronger after that event.
Does this not have a coaxial output?
I've read a few comments that claim this unit sounds quite similar to the M8. The resolution and transparency of the M8 isn't the best at this, but it's not bad either. How would you compare this dap with the M8? Also, is it as warm and rolled off in the treble as the M6 Ultra?
It indeed sounds like combining the best of M8 and M6 Ultra while providing a bit more power and oomph down low. Its tonality is identical to that of the M8 and the roll off is similar to that of the M6 Ultra. You nailed its tuning.
@@Soundnews Awesome, I get a gold star! Thank you for the reply
Non android based dap are they more lasting than android based dap?
SE kings indeed.. Peace!
Please review the Moondrop Miad.
That's for the suggestion, I will definitely shoot an email. A very interesting smartphone indeed!
@Sandu, Does this device use the exact same housing as the iBasso DX260? ...I fist thought you have the iBasso in your hands 🤭
Hey, now that you've mentioned it, it does resemble the DX260...quite a lot 😅
Hi I am actually choosing between M23 and ibasso 260.. Could you help me a bit with it ❓😁Thank you
@@jaroslavfricek7772 I'm very happy with my DX260, a wonderful DAP which even plays above it's 1000$ price point. It has a rather neutral sound signature, which I prefer over any colouring coming from a DAC/AMP or DAP. It's very detailed and at times so precise, that inconsistencies of bad recordings or compressed files become easier audible. Nevertheless the overall technicalities are excellent and I never had anything to complain about, but just one little thing, the side buttons are a bit too easily wrong-pressed.. that's all.
Y don’t u organize your videos into playlist ? It’s hard to look for a specific subject
What would best resolving daps? Could you give 3 options ? I wanna pair it with a sub-bass heavy iem like the Scarlet mini
Best resolving DAPs at any price? Easy: FiiO M17, HiBy R8 II and Shanling M9 Plus. My current favorite DAP is the R8 II.
@@Soundnews thank god I own the R8ii and the R6P2 but I thought that I can get even more better dap. You like the R8ii more than the RS8? 😱
@@ElNINETEENTH You didn't watch my R8 II video didn't you? 😅 The answer will be there.
@@Soundnews I did three times I remember you saying R8ii more revealing but the RS8 more holographic soundstage and essentially the better dap. I’ll watch it again 😭
@@ElNINETEENTH Yep, that's correct. There's another small difference: Dynamics! R8 II is simply punchier and more dynamic and since I'm the "transient response guy" you can guess which one I like a bit more 😁
m just wondering if M5 Ultra is that good and I truly believe it is that good why there's only very very very extremely few reviewers on this product unlike Hiby R4 or even Cayin N3Pro I just dont get it.
If you ask me which beer I’ll take my response is simply yes. You want an ipa then yes. You want to drink Czech pilsners then yes. A German style wheat beer then definitely yes .
That's my boi! That's exactly what I'm going to do at the Munchen High End Show in two days :))
@@Soundnews 🙌 🍻
OS layout very similar to Lotoo OS
If it doesn't support Qobuz then it won't work for me, too bad.
No have Android not good
