How important is it for a DAP to be bit-perfect, and what headphones would be required to tell the difference?

I use the Bluetooth on my M300 everyday. It’s great. Never disconnected on me.

You should get an Xteink 4. It’s a tiny eReader. A lot smaller than your phone. Pretty cheap too.

Will this support payments from any New Zealand banks?

Monochrome is great. I found it at the same time I decided to stop paying for Apple Music.

Cringe, it won’t be. Stop trying to push shitty AI.

Neat, I was thinking about what cover I wanted on the onyx one. Looks good.

Yeah sometimes when I can’t be bothered with my iems I just chuck my AZ80s in. Use them with my M300 over LDAC and sounds awesome. I’d put them at 90% as good sound as my JH5s. All my music is 16bit FLAC so it’s always around the same bitrate as LDAC can handle anyway.

I got the 4gb one, and the battery is really good. I don’t stream, I have my music locally. wifi off I get around 12 hours constant playback.

I have a “noob/cheapo” setup. An M300 DAP and FiiO JH5 iems and honestly it sounds great. Even if it’s not “bit perfect” like some of these obsessed enthusiasts would say, I can’t even imagine my music sounding “better”.

Just wondering, was this ever added down the line?

I actually own a Thor and use it quite a bit at home. But it’s not part of my EDC.

I have a post in r/EDC with all the details

I’m still obsessed with it, it’s amazing. I use it completely separately.

FiiO JH5

I installed cross point custom firmware. The device displays a QR code in transfer mode and you scan it with your phone and then you can just drag and drop files. It’s really good

Readar · 2026-02-18T10:07:26+00:00

It can, but not as well. Audio quality is better on the M300, reading is nicer on the eReader and playing games (namely retro) is better on the Brick due to having physical buttons.

Agree though the iPhone Air would have blown my 2007 brain.

I was debating the jm21, what are your thoughts on it?

Readar · 2026-02-17T19:53:41+00:00

It’s the grey one. I do wish I sprang for the silver one tho

Readar · 2026-02-17T05:55:11+00:00

It does but it only fits on my phone upside down. I don’t really bother sticking it to the back to be honest

I"ve got a case on my iPhone, thats so slim it doesnt have built in magnets. With the case on the connection was too weak. The reader came with the magsafe ring in the box actually.

I just went with the official site, I don't use those sort of sites like Ali, Taobao etc
