Features of FiiO M11 Plus ESS:
FiiO previously warmed up this player and stated that the fire at the AKM factory in Japan in 2020 caused the production of chips such as AK4497 to stop, and it will be difficult to resume production in the future, so this player was forced to postpone its release. M11Plus LTD will be priced higher than the current M11 Pro models. In addition, the display and main control will be upgraded.

But there are some cases where having a player like this Fiio M11 Plus ESS can pay off. If you are one of those people who enjoy HiFi sound or if you like to have your moments of disconnection from your mobile and, for example, go for a walk without the smartphone stealing your attention, it can be very interesting that you have one of these new Music players.
