Eight New Upgrades With The All-New FiiO M15S: Classic Redesigned For Better Experience!!

FiiO has introduced the all-new M15S Hi-Resolution digital audio player. It’s actually an upgrade over the highly-acclaimed M15 flagship-grade digital audio player from FiiO. The original M15 came out a few years back and was in a dire need of an upgrade. Mainly because the OG model has lost the support for Apple Music, and needed refreshment as well. So here comes the all-new M15S loaded with advanced software features and hardware configuration. This includes an upgrade on the main DAC chipset, an upgraded amp circuit for more output power, an upgraded SoC, newer Android, Apple Music support, and many more new features!!

Not only in terms of high power but also in terms of clarity. We get up to 1.2W of clean output power that is adequate enough to drive even the high-power requiring hungry headphones with ease. It actually features a high-power over-ear headphone mode just like the M17!!
