Got my Fiio JM21. Well to be honest I am quite shocked how well and snappy it works coming from absolute flagship android phone. The build quality and feel in hand is also good (though it is much lighter than your typical DAP)
I guess it may not have the best battery life, but it should be around 7-9h while streaming after few hours of tests. Not much, but comparable to things like Qudelix, BTR7 etc.
It may be the one and only source standard IEM’s user may ever need.
More user experience related impressions to follow!
However, for a freaking lie on the size of the bottom chin below the screen (reality vs. even the product box) Fiio should be probably boycotted as a whole
Its only recently that DAPs have gotten anything decent for the SoC. (Snapdragon 680)
That is quite the big F u.
And I think they also got those pics on their damn site.
not even the bezel buttons for functionality
Don’t know the seller but this’s one big fat deal on an awesome set …
He also texted me on Head-Fi because i was searching there, great guy would recommend!
But i allready got an even better offer in germany as soon as i am back home from my India trip
Mint condition for 1050€ did not have to think twice and am very grateful that the seller is reserving it for me for almost 2 months now
It is finally happening…can not wait for these bad boys to be mine
Absolutely one of my fav sets at Canjam enjoy brah
thanks homie, late to answer but I just grabbed one
on another note, has anyone found a better S08 yet? I think I wanna buy it again
I try whitewashing it
When compared to its retail price it is not so much anymore
@Ohmboy Thanks brother
Wow India trip… Hope you have a great time here
I do, thank you brother!
It’s quite different to previous holidays though as I am not drinking alcohol and first had to find out what to do instead
Meditation and breathwork it is
…and relaxing
Hi guys,
Just wanted to share a story of a pure stupidity, luck and heroes without caps in the IEM world that happened to me today.
I was chilling around my house with Twilights hanging on the cable while moving from kitchen to the bedroom. And just by strike of an accident while bending over the table I decided to use a hanging right earpiece as a fucking candle extinguisher…
It fell straight to the fire putting it out immediately and half of the housing got covered in quickly hardening wax in the process covering also the inlet of one of the vents…
This is the fire we put out.
I cursed, panicked a bit, but luckily for me my hero wife was right around the corner and in a second gave me some extremely efficient tool just right for the purpose. So in less than a minute I was able to use it to get the wax out of the vents as a first priority until it is completely hardened.
I don’t know what magic did she use to know what is needed and to have it just in time for the action, but that is why we have the better halves with us I guess
This is the tool she had. What it is for originally I don’t know
I believe I got everything out of the vent, both sounds exactly same for my flawed ears after the hole situation.
oh god, this must have given you a heart attack. Heard stories about people dropping their iems in the toilet or in food but this is a first for me lol.

Picked up a pair of the Klean’s and wew they’re living up to their name Might have to retire the ea500’s.
Wow, what a close call! Huge props to your wife for the quick save.
Speaking of self hosting, thought of you @Rikudou_Goku when I saw this guide to self hosting EVERYTHING
VERY detailed guide nice. My post will be somewhat similar except I have screenshots guiding through pretty much all the steps.
Im curious though, if people would be interested in me showing a step by step guide on how to set up other stuff such as file browsers and performance monitors? My document is already huge as it is with “just” the bare minimum of setting up the music server (and VPN for remote access along with adblock DNS).
