FiiO M11 Plus LTD

Portable player with audiophile aspirations

5 / 5

With the M11 Plus LTD, FiiO has made a major sonic leap. Audiophile sound quality is no longer exclusively reserved for at-home listening. This portable device, which can also be used excellently at home, plays every format with an ease and nonchalance that is beyond reproach and deserves an unqualified recommendation.

Excellent sound thanks to the use of double DA converters, highly optimised power supply, a powerful battery for long hours of mobile music and technical components of the highest quality. These are the hallmarks of the recently released FiiO M17.

Shanling M3X

Portable Hi-Res player with balanced headphone output

4.5 / 5

The 2001 invention of iPods was a brilliant thing. Suddenly you were able to listen to your own music library on the go. With the appearance of smartphones and their ability to store your music library, this kind of specialised portable music player initially disappeared from the shelves. For some years now, however, they have been made a comeback, offering a wealth of technical possibilities that are almost as good as home stereo systems, focusing on increased sound quality. Has the portable music player's time come again?
