J'adore les films d'horreur mais je n'achèterai pas des intras qui ressemblent à ça !

Ça doit être le LPGT2
tout acheter non, l'ARTPICAL「Bloody Angel」, je te le laisse volontiers, quelle horreur !
heureusement c'est une édition limitée à 30 pièces.

P6P10ANV Black x Gold avec l'Artpical Lucifer c'est mieux.

Mon dieu, tu mets ça on dirait que ta cervelle s'écoule par tes oreilles

[woophie]

Voici un post abrégé du CEO de FiiO :

<< En 2025, nous ajouterons des amplificateurs à tubes, des radios, des enceintes sur pied et gaming devices.

Arrêt du développement de nouveaux modèles de la série Q
et réduction des investissements dans les écouteurs intra-auriculaires.

Les DAC/amplificateurs portables perdent du terrain face à la commodité des DAC compacts.
Le marché des casques intra-canal est également saturé.

Aujourd'hui, un petit investissement suffit pour lancer sa propre marque, ce qui a entraîné une sursaturation du marché
et FIIO a décidé de se concentrer sur des produits dont la barrière à l'entrée est plus élevée.

FIIO mise sur le design rétro, qu'elle associe à la technologie moderne.
La réaction positive en 2024 confirme que nous allons dans la bonne direction. >>

FIIO 2025 New Product Schedule (1) Preface--By Mr James.

Since our fiscal year starts on April 1st, releasing a new product schedule in March seems more reasonable.

As per tradition, let’s first go over some important notes—things that we have repeated many times before. However, these reminders are necessary. For those unfamiliar with our usual practices, this serves as an introduction. For senior fans, it is a good way to refresh and reinforce previous knowledge.

The new product schedule is for reference only, but can not be seen as a commitment.

There is an old saying that plans are made to be delayed. So, our new product schedule is for reference only, and delays are almost inevitable, though FIIO had relatively few product delays last year.

Additionally, a year is a long time, and we may not strictly follow our original plans. There may be unexpected new products, or some planned projects may be canceled.

FIIO has decided to work toward becoming the "Decathlon of HiFi", which means our product categories will continue expanding. This is a good thing for consumers, as it allows us to cater to different scenarios, budgets, and styles.

For sure, some people will say FIIO is not focusing on R&D and is just releasing products randomly. That kind of criticism is inevitable, but we don’t bother explaining anymore. Instead, we will continue expanding our team and doing what we do best. As long as our products remain competitive, we are not afraid of criticism.

FIIO will continue expanding the product category in 2025

After 18 years of development, FIIO’s product lineup has become one of the most comprehensive both domestically and internationally. Our products cover portable players, desktop players, portable DAC/amps, portable Bluetooth DAC/amps, TWS earbuds, dynamic driver IEMs, balanced armature IEMs, hybrid IEMs, dynamic driver headphones, planar magnetic headphones, earbuds, speakers, desktop DAC/amps, keyboards, USB dongles, accessories, as well as CD and cassette players.

This year, we will introduce tube amplifiers, radios, and floor-standing speakers. Additionally, we will begin exploring the gaming market, instead of being limited solely to HiFi audio.

Selective reduction of product categories

Since a company’s resources and focus are limited, we must balance expansion and optimization. At present, we have decided to halt new product development for the Q series and reduce investment in IEM development, considering market competition and declining demand.

The Q series portable DAC/amps have been heavily impacted by high-end dongles and Bluetooth DAC/amps. Since most users pair these devices with smartphones, large and heavy DAC/amps come with significant usability constraints. For indoor use, they cannot compete with desktop devices in terms of experience and sound quality.

The IEM market is also shrinking. The core reason is that IEMs have become a low-entry-barrier product—with just a few thousand dollars, anyone can start a brand, and some manufacturers are willing to produce small-batch CNC or 3D-printed models. This has led to an oversaturated market, with too many new brands and products. For now, we will shift our focus to higher-barrier products.

HiFi vintage will be FIIO’s main theme in 2025!

Among HiFi brands, FIIO is likely the only company making vintage design a core product strategy. We not only create retro-style products but also integrate vintage aesthetics into modern devices.

In 2024, FIIO’s retro-style products have received positive consumer feedback, so we will continue to expand in this direction.

That’s all for the preface! Stay tuned for more updates! Thank you!

FIIO 2025 New Product Schedule(3)-Portable HiFi Music Player

Recently, you may heard of the big news that a certain renowned international audio brand has been acquired by a real estate company. Additionally, based on private discussions with industry insiders, a well-known Japanese brand currently has no plans to update its portable player lineup.

Meanwhile, domestic brands are also withdrawing from the portable player market. Even FIIO itself only launched two models in 2024: the M23 and JM21.

We won’t analyze external factors here. Instead, I’ll explain the reasons behind the industry's downturn from FIIO’s perspective.

1. The return on investment is getting lower and lower.
Simply put, developing portable players requires significant investment but yields diminishing returns. This is especially true for Android-based players, where adopting a new platform costs millions. Moreover, system software, underlying software, driver development, UI, app development, structure, hardware, and industrial design all require a large number of engineers. Portable players are among the most complex products, demanding the highest level of engineering effort.

2. Technological progress has stagnated, or even come to a halt.
The Snapdragon 660/665 has been used for who knows how many years. The DAC options remain limited to ESS, AKM, and CSS chips. In terms of functionality, everything that could be added has already been implemented.

As a result, manufacturers are resorting to features like vacuum tubes, R2R DACs, or experimenting with different casing materials. However, these elements can’t define the industry’s mainstream direction, which are merely better than nothing.

3. Homogeneous product designs
Perhaps due to the inherent constraints of portable players, most devices now look similar—a rectangular shape with only minor variations.

With the maturation of two major chipset platforms that FIIO has heavily invested in over the past two years and the return of our pure audio series, 2025 is set to be a fruitful year for FIIO’s portable players.

I. Pure Audio Series
Starting with the ECHO MINI, FIIO has made a grand return to pure audio players after years of absence, and it has been a hit. In 2025, we will continue introducing multiple pure audio players, including:

1. ECHO NANO
A more compact and affordable version of the ECHO MINI, this pocket-sized HiFi player is expected to be released by the end of the year.

2. ECHO
Designed based on user demand, this model is positioned above the ECHO MINI in the pure audio lineup and is expected to launch in the fall.

3. DISCUE
A high-end pure audio player based on the X2000 chipset from Ingenic. It offers higher-level functionality and performance than the ECHO series and features a retro design with a fresh take on product aesthetics.

II. Android Series
Starting with the JM21, all of FIIO’s Android portable players will feature upgraded main chipsets. The mid-to-low-end models will primarily use the Qualcomm Snapdragon 680 chip, while the mid-to-high-end models will feature a cutting-edge Qualcomm chipset that leads the industry by a wide margin.

If you’re planning to buy an Android-based portable player in 2025, hold off and see what FIIO has in store! The JM21 and M21, which use the Snapdragon 680, are just warm-up acts— the real flagship is yet to come.

Now, let’s take a look at FIIO’s planned portable player releases for 2025.

1. M21
The M21 made its first public appearance at the recent Shanghai Headphone Expo. It features the Snapdragon 680 chipset, a new quad-ES43918 matrix DAC, desktop mode, and a high-power headphone amplifier. Additionally, we designed a retro-style cassette tape protective case for it.

This design has received widespread acclaim from audiophiles. The M21 is expected to launch in April at a highly competitive price, similar to the JM21.

2. M27
This model was initially scheduled for a late 2024 release but has been significantly delayed. However, the M27 is the true king of 2025. We can reveal that it will feature a next-generation Qualcomm Snapdragon 7-series chipset, a replaceable battery, dual microSD card slots, a standard optical output, and ESS’s flagship DAC.

The M27 is expected to launch around June. The delay was intentional, as we wanted to fine-tune its sound quality and user experience to perfection.

3. M25
This is the successor to the M15S. Currently, it is still in the planning stage and is expected to launch around December. It will feature the same chipset as the M27. However, since the design and specifications are still under discussion, we can’t reveal much at this point.

What we can say is that we aim to make this model sound even better, offer a superior user experience, and incorporate a more exciting design.

We are optimistic about our portable players in 2025. This is the natural outcome of the hard work we’ve put in over the past two years. Our goal is to achieve an overwhelming lead in product capabilities—not just compared to our competitors but even surpassing our own past achievements. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have invested so much capital and manpower into developing so many new products.

Merci ! Par contre j'ai pas compris un truc, le M25 est censé mieux sonner que le M27?

[Atomium]

Hyper intéressant ! Donc aucune sortie de Sony cette année, pourtant il y avait eu une rumeur en fin 2024. Dommage que le M25 et le M27 soient en ESS.

[woophie]

Cela ne concerne que FiiO

tout ce qui est en rapport avec le M27 c'est le snapdragon 7, sinon c'est Vs le M15s cette phrase :
<< What we can say is that we aim to make this model sound even better, offer a superior user experience, and incorporate a more exciting design. >> la suite est par rapport à leurs productions d'avant ( past achievements )
