Really appreciate your concise and well spoken reviews! Do you know if any of the Shanling players, within their particular OS, allow for proper playing of podcast and/or audiobooks??. By that, I mean that it will always resume precisely where one has paused when previously listening to a particular title?? I'm finding it very difficult to find players, even amongst the high end, that can recognize files tagged as podcasts or audiobooks. Sansa has the Sandisk line that is quite affordable and has great podcast compatible software, but they've only disappointed their customers more and more over the years with the hardware end of things. Thanks for any info.
@ajbfwb4 жыл бұрын
P.S. I was really hoping the Fiio M6 might be good for podcasts, but it seems they've yet to whitelist a suitable app that could be downloaded, and that the factory OS does not recognize podcasts.

Your best bet would be an Android-based player along with a dedicated podcast app. I think FiiO has removed the whitelisted requirement in one of their firmware updates, but you'd still need to manually install the apk for the app.

Should mp3 players really be this expensive? What exactly is it that makes it 100$? If it's the touchscreen and design, I guess it's not really worth it for those who just need a good mp3 player. What do you guys think? By the way, this is a really awesome review. I just got finished and I watched it all. You did it so nicely. I hope to see more cheap DAP reviews from you, stuff like Cayin N3 and Fiio X1 2nd Gen. I didn't feel good about this player before watching this video, but now you've convinced me about it and I really want to buy it! Do you think this, the Cayin N3 or the Fiio X1 2nd Gen?

@theosamma3a605 жыл бұрын
@@steelgtr In that case I'd recommend the M7 over the M0 for you. The M0 does not have a proper line-out function, whereas the M7 does. In case you're unfamiliar with what a line-out feature is...after the audio signal is processed by the DAC circuitry it is passed to the amplification circuitry. In the case of small devices that are meant for headphones the amp section doesn't actually amplify the signal, but rather reduces it instead. As such, the signal level coming from the DAC section is usually much higher than when it leaves the amp section. So when we talk about a line-out function what we mean is that the audio signal is sent to the output directly after the DAC section. This is advantageous because the signal would be "purer" (as it hasn't undergone minor degradation do to the amp circuitry...each bit of circuitry in the single path WILL degrade it even to a small degree). So, in your case it would make more sense to use a device that has a line-out feature (assuming, of course, that your home stereo has a line-in connection).
