The screen on the m21 is 4.7 inches. Just right for my hand

This is also a more general issue with hifi—so many ppl who have never heard anything they didn’t like. That doesn’t mean everything is good, it means you’re bad at listening and don’t have a well-formed opinion on what sounds good to you. So-called “reviewers” who you can always count on to say that this new shiny thing is great.

So true. That’s why I decided to only buy gear I can demo first (notwithstanding that there are still some reviewers I trust but you always have to check what it’s sounds like to you given all the different elements that come into play).

I own an M11S and love the options that FIiO gives you when operating it. Not only do you get the double-tap to wake functionality but you can also program what Apple would call the action button to switch the screen on and off, which is really handy. Build is also really solid and the pre-installed screen protector and case make life so much easier (went though all my screen protectors with the DX260 and it still looks terrible with the bubbles and everything).

Thats great!! I didn’t know double tap to wake was a feature in DAPs
 Lemme see if I have it
Edit: found it and enabled it!! Awesome

It is so useful. For some reason, iBasso doesn’t use it even though their screens can handle it. No programmable button either, so you’re left with the clickable volume wheel which isn’t ideal IMO.

Uh, DX340 has tap to wake

They are literally blackmailing him

That’s somewhat of a surprise. The DX260 and DX180 don’t have that feature (I’ve demoed both of them) and all the reviews I’ve seen for the DX340 explicitly state it doesn’t have it either. I’m assuming you’re speaking from experience so that could mean it was added since it’s release (or the reviewers were wrong of course).

Yes. I have both the 180 and 340. I believe it was added, to the 340 only, in the last couple updates, ~3 months ago.

Hope they’ll add it to the other models as well then. I have the DX260 so it would be a welcome addition.

It’s beyond belief. Straight theft with some extra helpings of delusion.

  • They are paid a huge sum of money for the products

  • They don’t send the products (?!?!?!)

  • They say “if you tell someone we stole from you we’ll steal all of it. If you stay quiet about this we’ll steal some of it.

They are bargaining on how much of his money they can steal. If they never sent products, it’s not their money to dispense back to the actual owner


Sounds like being mugged in a back alley not a transaction.

Gimme your cellphone and wallet. But if you agree not to open a police report, I’m ok just taking your cellphone.

Already decided to never support them again, and their emails back pretending that they care and will do better always get another acerbic reply from me, I don’t want them to think for a second I buy into some PR phrases over some actual action.

Kids have more accountability that FatFreq. If one of my kids knocked down the other kid’s tower, what parent would be ok with “oh man that’s too bad, I’m sure I’ll do better next time”. You can do better this time, if you’re really sorry then help them build their tower back up. If you don’t actually want to help all the people you’ve wronged and just want to move on to new customers to “do better next time” you’re not sorry.

He asked if he could post here (of course). If he does show some consideration. He is literally a robbery victim

What is this beautiful thing you have your DAP connected to?

I read somewhere that the 180 and 260 lack the hardware in the display to enable it. Seems one could detect double-tap in software alone though. Perhaps not as efficient but doable nonetheless.

I’ll check to see if there are apps for that available. Thanks!
