FiiO

Sporting a desktop mode, a first for FiiO players, the deep blue M23 Portable Hi-Res Lossless Music Player from FiiO gives audiophiles the flexibility of home or mobile enjoyment of high resolution music. In this mode, the battery does not charge or discharge, as you listen continuously from an external power source (USB-C adapter required). Regardless of how you use the M23, many highly advanced internal components help to ensure the best experience possible. Combo AKM AK4191EQ & AK4499EX DACs separate digital and analog portions of the M23, dual 4-way fully balanced THX AAA 78+ amps deliver balanced sound and high fidelity, while DAPS maintains audio purity. These features and more come together in the M23 to play music with a clean and natural sound.Combo DACs The combination of the AKM AK4191EQ and AK4499EX DACs completely separates the digital and analog portions, while DWA Routing improves signal-to-noise and ensures natural, Hi-Res Audio reproduction.Dual THX AAA 78+ Amps Refining the AAA 78 amps found in the M11 Plus and Pro, FiiO equips the M23 with dual 4-way fully balanced THX AAA 78+ amps. They combine for true, balanced 8-way parallel amplification with greater power output while maintaining high fidelity music.Digital Audio Purification System Also known as DAPS, the Digital Audio Purification System is made up of a FiiO-developed Hi-Fi audio core that bypasses the stock Android core, and works with a low-jitter clock coprocessor. In addition to a unified low-jitter clock, this allows the M23 to maintain the original sampling rate of your music, no matter how it's being played.4-Stage 20-Rail Power In order to handle all of this advanced analog and digital internal circuitry, FiiO gave the M23 a robust 4-stage 20-rail power supply. The system is comprised of independent digital and analog power supplies. The analog supply has separate rails for the DAC, small and large amplification parts, four stages of power processing: OVP, adaptive and LDOO voltage stabilization, high-efficiency voltage boosting, and Pi filtering. A total of 28 high-capacity polymer tantalum capacitors are used to store large amounts of reserve energy when needed, with the primary analog power supply getting 4 KEMET low ESR high ripple suppression polymer tantalum capacitors, the THX power supply getting 12 KEMET capacitors, the I/V & LPF power supplies getting 6 AVX capacitors, and the DAC receiving 6 KEMET capacitors.Dual-Mode Fast Charging To help deliver the fastest charging times while maintaining battery health, the M23 can utilize extreme fast charging of up to 30W at a lower battery level, and auto-switch to a slightly slower normal fast charging mode when the battery is closer to being full.Super High Gain Mode When in fast charging, the M23's Super High Gain Mode can be activated for more gain and power to the audio outputs. Up to 1000mW + 1000mW per channel at 32 ohms, or up to 240 mw at 300 ohms, can be accessed for powering high impedance headphones. In addition, while in this mode the second USB-C port does not use power, so it can be repurposed to connect to a smartphone to use the M23 as a USB DAC. A High Gain Mode is also available, offering 475mW at 32 ohms or 55 mW at 300 ohms.Four Gain Levels Two low-noise OPA1612 op-amps for I/V and LPF stages, and two low-noise OPA1662 op-amps for voltage amplification come together to ensure audio is accurately played at the correct power output to support a wide variety of headphone and IEM types.Eight Panasonic Film Capacitors In the LPF section, 8 Panasonic film capacitors are used to give the M23 the ability to produce stable and consistent sound at each frequency band from both the left and right channels.Large 5500mAh Battery Equipped with a sizable 5500mAh battery for mobile use, the M23 is capable of up to 10.5 hours of runtime, or up to 9 hours of balanced battery runtime. A low-resistance MOS protection board is used to enhance overall battery life, and the battery supports fa
