It's the almost-2025 episode! Love you guys and remember to stay awesome 👍 I'll try to get the link for the M18i ASAP, but in the meantime there are these (including for the shirts I wore): Questyle M15C amzn.to/3ZRMjae ($110 currently), Questyle M15i amzn.to/41NhyWS (20% off), GeeksOutfit www.geeksoutfit.com/collections/best-selling/? (Use code "gear25" for 25% off your order)
I love my m12 and only use the 3.5 out. With that in mind I wonder if or even why this would sound different ,? There is ALWAYS an "upgrade" getting ready to come out. In trying to avoid pulling my wallet out each time.
Fair enough. Some like the convenience and future-proofing of updates, some would rather not have yet another app to deal with, lol. Thanks for your comment and for watching!
The innards are slightly better sorted, I think. The 18 has a reputation for a high noise floor when using sensitive gear, plus getting warm under normal use.
Lack of any firmware update to fix or make improvements like adding more volumes steps makes me quite wary. Also everyone seems to be pricing it just south of 400, it Def needs more for that big a payout.
did i get it right? 3 hrs battery life? what was questyle thinking? sadly questyle knows how to build amps, but struggle with wireless connectivity since release of their first device with bt. horrible static sounds picked up from radio signals. they seem to have problems with shielding their antennas while keeping connection alive.
Yes I did. You only gave a very brief explanation of how the closest sq to it is the m12i/m15i and that it is a very detail device but did not elaborate on the sound. I like to know how the highs mids and lows compare to the m15i. Which has the better soundstage. How is the tone, is it warmer than the m15i? Crisper? Please elaborate on the sound quality.

Hey Aaron, Thanks for posting this video..
You're welcome! I hope you found it helpful.
Nice review Aaron. Thanks.
Cheers, Rich! A happy New Year to you!
Thank you. Not been able to update the firmware is a no go for me.

According to their reps on the site there will be a Firmware update later.
Hi Aaron! Thanks for your review! Have you tried the CMA 18Portable? And if yes, how is this compared to the CMA18P?
Thanks!😊

This is a beautifully made review
I appreciate you watching, John! Glad you enjoyed it. Happy New Year!

Right? If they can square these couple of things away, the next gen will be fire.
I just got a 15i lol. and a cayin ru6 I scored for $120.
Both for $120? Score!
How is the sound compare to m15i?
Did you see the disclaimer in the SQ section of the video?

Ohh that battery life is trash lol. Reminds me of my btr7. btr17 fixed that one for me.
Yeah, Fiio has been on fire lately.
MQA Still Support?
That's a negative.
The Sweater! Boldly Go! No! No! Repent My Son! Repent!
I'm neutral, honest!
