I have been stunned by the power and drive and clean presentation of the Questyle M15 Dongle. The product gets the highest recommendation from me. In this review, I explain why...

Thanks for the review! Looks like we have similar tastes in headphones (Utopia and Phi TC here for my desktop listening via the Questyle CAS192D and CMA800R monos), I always value feedback on products from people who like similar gear to me. A Questyle dongle super appealing to me, will be interesting to compare to my L&P W2.

@rickfriedel08 2 года назад

Very interesting. Was looking at dongles but was not familiar with this model. On the radar now.

@remedyofficialvlogs47 Год назад

Thank you for the review!! Im getting one and my source preference is leaning towards neutral. Analytical is my thing and i have a high benchmark before i call it sterile or dry. Im hoping the metallic timbre you mentioned will not put me off. Again, im getting one of these and i will be making a review of it soon. Again, thanks for the review!!

@AKL764 Год назад

Would love a comparison between this LP W2 and Cayin Ru6!! Great review as always

@IVan-AbDula. Год назад

And Shanling ua5!

@ahmedshafiul3851 2 года назад

M15 doesn't sound like a dongle really. More like a mid high tier serious device. Questyle did an awesome job!

@pelilin2519 2 года назад

but does it suck? suck your battery dry heh.

@AhloiFTW 2 года назад

There are soo many dongle dac released this year but the one that i want to try the most is Cayin ru6 (r2r dac) , shanling UA5 (true balanced dual ess dac+ dual ricore amp) it even have built in battery inside. I hope they send you the review unit soon.

@minhbu95 Год назад

Ru6 is amazing if you're into a wet, musical experience and prefer it over the technically-superior W2, I have both and I would go for RU6 everyday. Really want to try this M15

@mikylenaidoo1779 2 года назад

Very interesting. I must audition these when I get a chance ! Especially since I'm looking for a mobile device /dap to replace my M17. Sajid ,if you can , please listen to the Cayin n8ii... I heard it last week and it was by far the most enjoyable Dap I've heard, and I've heard everything except the lp6pro. Just phenomenonal

@amplifyaudioreviews 2 года назад

I love Cayin. Sure, will try to check them out!

@shahkhan110 2 года назад

Nice review...have you tried dacport HD from Centrance? This dongle is a beast @ 775MW power output, without having the timbre issue of M15.

@amplifyaudioreviews 2 года назад

Haven't but hope I will get to

@samanlashkari1702 2 года назад

Hi Sajid, and thanks for another great review. Wondering whether you got the Euforia, and if so, how did you find it. As I have been waiting for an opinion from someone whose taste and judgment I respect.

@amplifyaudioreviews 2 года назад

Thanks Saman. Loving the Euforia with ZMF. It's a very capable amp. Tends to smoothen the other headphones too much but with ZMF, rather lovely. Somehow the impedance matching or whatever is going on, it retains the ZMF and 6XX sound sig, and just makes them bigger, cleaner, more resolving, and more impactful.

@samanlashkari1702 2 года назад

@@amplifyaudioreviews Much obliged.

@dentboxhero1717 Год назад

Shanling UA5 still takes the cake IMO when it comes to portability and when I say portability, that means the UA5 has it's own battery keeping it's performance consistent unlike dongles that draws power and at the mercy of the source unit's power which in most cases your phone. If the M15 would have had it's own power source.. then maybe I will be singing a different tune, maybe.

@jasonbhatnagar7134 2 года назад

A comparison to the Luxury And Precision W2 would be interesting

@rodpinfold8824 Год назад

I heard and compared it to the Qudelix - 5K with various headphones and IEM’s and went Quedelix

@barnsbarns420 Год назад

How is it compared to Hiby R5 Saber Gen 2 and Shanling M3X in sound quality sir? I’m thinking whether i will go with DAP or dongle dac/amp. Thank you.

@nhanchanhung Год назад

tried Moondrop Kato with a random dongle given at the shop (M12) and have to search for this brand. Impressive.

How's the M15 comparison to RU7 for Letshuoer DZ4, Sennheiser HD 660S, Hifiman Sundara? Which one should to go for?

@ekjellgren 2 года назад

Why didn't you connect to the balanced output?

@villageroma Год назад

Liked the vid but... Even if, when we ear "all you need is..." is supposed to lead to a list of hi end stuff, sometimes is true the opposite. The example you have made is perfect: Apple dongle and Etymotic SE, now beat this $100 combo in corectness with a thousand dollars of whatever is virtually impossible. Now couple this M15 dac with an NX7 portable amp and you reach almost perfection level that surpasses even desktop setups

Similar sound to the CMA 12 Master

@jaroslavfricek7772 2 года назад

Hi there Sagit( sorry to butcher your name, how is it written?) Anyway, really love your way of reviewing, just want to say Iam the same , synergy the most important, doesn’t matter the price. Talking of apple dongle I really like to listen just with apple dongle some of my under $100 IEM like Moondrop SSR, Blon 3 or CCA CKX with Dekoni foams… so it’s also synerg. Take care Thank you😆❤️🤘P.S my favorite dongle is this one and Moondrop Rover 2

How is the sound vs ifi zen can stack? Driving the my Focal headphones? I am waiting for your reply before I place my order on any of this

@amplifyaudioreviews 2 года назад

Haven't checked with the zen stack honestly. Ahmed Shafiul in the comments below, might know.

@ahmedshafiul3851 2 года назад

M15 is more dynamic, resoiving and precise. Driving Focals would be cakewalk, synergy with utopia was great from my experience. Zen stack is equally good though but the sound is a bit too thick and colored. Can get boring overtime.

Questyle customer service is terrible I had a very bad experience I threw my CMA400i in to garbage bin because for months they didn't respond to my mail and won't pickup the phone. But their high current technology is wonderful. But because of their customer service I won't ever buy Questyle products.
