A compact player built for serious listening

The FiiO M27 brings desktop-class audio performance into a portable body you can take anywhere. It’s built on a modern Snapdragon platform, uses dual flagship DACs, delivers up to 5000mW+5000mW of balanced power, and supports lossless Bluetooth through Qualcomm’s latest codec. With dual microSD slots for large libraries, a removable 9200mAh battery, and a wide I/O range, it’s designed for listeners who want a single device that can handle long listening sessions at home, at the office, or anywhere in between.

Processing that keeps everything moving

The M27 runs on Qualcomm’s QCS6490 processor, a chipset normally found in higher-end mobile devices. Paired with Android 13, 8GB of RAM, and 256GB of internal storage, the player handles large libraries, streaming apps, and PEQ adjustments without hesitation. It’s a smooth, responsive platform that makes listening feel effortless.

Lossless Bluetooth when you want to go wireless

With the Qualcomm QCC5181 chipset, the M27 supports aptX Lossless for wireless playback that avoids the usual tradeoffs in Bluetooth transmission. Whether you’re pairing with powered speakers or wireless headphones, the codec maintains bit-perfect transmission at CD-quality bandwidth. It’s helpful on busy mornings or when you want to move around the house without unplugging anything.

Dual flagship DACs for detailed sound

Inside the M27 are two ESS Sabre Pro ES9039SPRO DACs. Each chip runs a 32-bit Hyperstream IV architecture that supports wide dynamic range, low distortion, and low noise—measurable improvements that translate into cleaner transients and an easy sense of space in your favorite albums. The DAC section feeds a fully-balanced analog stage designed to maintain that precision all the way to the headphone outputs.

Power on tap for demanding headphones

The balanced output can deliver up to 5000mW+5000mW in Ultra High Gain mode. Five hardware gain levels let you match the player to anything from sensitive IEMs to full-size planar headphones. If you’ve wanted a transportable device that can handle your entire headphone collection, this one covers a wide range of use cases without external amplification.

Tons of I/Os

The M27 includes 3.5mm, 4.4mm, and 6.35mm headphone outputs along with coaxial and optical I/O for pairing with DACs, amps, powered speakers, or receivers. It works equally well as a portable player, a desktop hub, or a digital transport. This flexibility makes it easy to integrate with gear you already own.

Room for libraries of any size

Two high-speed microSD card slots support up to 2TB per slot, giving you room for high-resolution files, box sets, and archived favorites. With instant access to your entire library, you can move through genres, playlists, and long sessions without managing storage.

A battery designed for long listening

A 9200mAh high-voltage battery keeps the player running through long stretches of use. Desktop Mode allows the M27 to run as a stationary device without stressing the battery, extending its lifespan over time. When the battery eventually wears out, users can replace it themselves without sending the unit in for service.

A six-stage audio architecture built for stability

The internal signal chain uses dual ES9039SPRO DACs, dual ES9312 power regulators, NJU72315 digital volume control chips, and OPA2211 operational amplifiers. This multi-stage approach keeps noise low and preserves channel balance. It’s designed for the listener who values clean power rails, stable voltage, and consistent performance across listening sessions.

Clocking that keeps jitter out of the way

FiiO’s sixth-generation DAPS architecture pairs a high-capacity FPGA with dual RIVER femtosecond crystal oscillators. This clocking system creates a unified, ultra-low-jitter environment that supports bit-perfect playback from file to analog output. It’s a quiet foundation that lets the rest of the hardware do its job.

Optional titanium alloy body

The M27 is available with an optional titanium alloy chassis and a glass-fiber rear panel. The material choices give the player a dense, durable feel similar to premium smartphones. It’s comfortable, solid in the hand, and built for years of daily listening.
