Fiio X1 DAP for $70 + S&H [MD]

Unlocked at the members-only Massdrop site is the new condition Fiio X1 (first generation) digital audio player going for $70 plus shipping. The offer runs for the next six days but may end earlier if the 64 available units are claimed (39 of them are claimed as of posting time).

These will ship in late June 2017, and all sales are final as usual. They will ship from Massdrop.

I am listening to music through this as I am writing this as a matter of fact 🙂 The promised review is still in the works, but I already posted a utilitarian text and pictures unboxing (no audio, no slideshows, no video, no annoyances).

If you don’t want to deal with Massdrop and forgo the option to return it if you don’t like it, you can get it for $79 Prime eligible in the gold color scheme.

Further complicating decisions is that Fiio released a 2nd Generation model which goes for $100 and adds Bluetooth. I’ve only used the first generation, so I can’t compare them.

I can’t buy multiple units just to test this, but you may be eligible for one freebie IEM for every eligible over/on-ear headphone you buy. It looks so in the shopping cart when I added multiple units to price-check them. But I did not place the order, so it’s not 100% certain 🙂 I wish I could just buy headphones by the pound just to test offers, but unfortunately none of the retailers accept Monopoly money 🙂
