I mean… it could also be “worse” than Amber Pearl, price doesn’t always mean “better” in this hobby imo 🤷🏽♂️- aaf evo

Introducing Shanling M30 - Modular Desktop Hi-Fi Streaming Player
Considering picking up an M30 Plus but I have a question, for the on-board Android apps do these have to be updated via Shanling through firmware or can you update them yourself in any way? Thanks!- aaf evo

I never noticed this during my ownership, lmao. Maybe that’s a testament to how pleasant they sound.- aaf evo

I can only imagine how that sounds! I think having a desktop piece that’s great for IEMs too is a great choice. The Lotoo Mjolnir (for my tastes) blows away any DAP I’ve heard and that’s not even a “proper” desktop piece of gear. I’ll hopefully try the DMP-Z1 this year but I’m not sure I’d buy...- aaf evo

No fit issues on Traillii for me minus the occasional vacuum seal. I was just suggesting alternatives that I think should be considered in place of Traillii since that doesn’t work for him. I think 622b is also a decent shout but I found it’s mid range to be fairly dry and lacking in that...- aaf evo

Hmmm hot take maybe? - try Melodic Artification Alter Ego if you haven’t already. I preferred it to both OG and Ti Traillii for that softer more relaxing playback that has great timbre.- aaf evo

New top Lotoo Mjolnir
Yeah, I certainly wouldn’t mind if it was included for free. 😃 at this price and the lack of a charging brick was already quite annoying lol!- aaf evo

Questyle CMA18 Portable DAC with Headphone Amplifier
It might be! Some sources do this and some shut off the amp when you aren’t playing anything. I just find it’s more practical to check for noise with quiet passages as music is playing as it’s more representative of normal use case.- aaf evo

Questyle CMA18 Portable DAC with Headphone Amplifier
If you are pausing it you are likely disabling the amp entirely so you shouldn’t hear any hiss. I’d suggest a test where you play music with quieter passages and listen that way.- aaf evo
