The Chinese Language audio corporation Fiio is launching a brand new track player today that includes one unusual function: USB-C. The brand new USB general continues to be a rarity on music players, however Fiio’s M7 could have the port available to use for charging, syncing tune, and song playback over USB-C headphones.
Realistically, you’ll most effective want to apply USB-C for those first things. Headphones that work with the port must include their very own DAC (digital-to-analog converter) to convert sound, and given the contemporary country of USB-C headphones, possibilities are they won’t be very good. Or at the very least, they won’t be as excellent as what you’d get out of the M7’s integrated DAC for when it’s getting used with traditional headphones. (Fiio makes a terrific, cheap pair of these, by way of the manner.)
Fiio M7 High Resolution Music Player Design
The Fiio M7 has a modest 3.2-inch touchscreen (480×800 pixel resolution), an aluminium chassis, an all glass the front, and 2GB of internal storage which can be extended through a microSD card (of up to 512GB capability). The player runs on a fantastically customised Android pores and skin and has physical buttons for playback controls as well as a dial to control the volume.
Fiio M7 High Resolution Music Player Features
The Hi-Res music player is powered by Samsung’s Exynos 7270 SoC and has a claimed play time of up to 30 hours when connected via Bluetooth and 20 hours via the headphone jack. Its 1180mAh battery is also claimed to offer standby time of 40 days. It is one of the first dedicated music players in the world to have a USB-Type C port which can be used for charging, syncing and music playback over USB-C headphones. There’s also a 3.5mm headphone output support.
At the core of the M7 is the ESS Sabre 9018 chip which combines a high-performance DAC and headphone amplifier into one small package. The 9018 chip has a fairly impressive signal-to-noise ratio of -121B and support for up to 384kHz/32 bit PCM tracks.
