Two Cirrus Logic CS43131 DACs, a high-performance USB chip and an audiophile DSP play PCM up to 384kHz\/32-bit and DSD256, with a 10-band PEQ, up to 250mW per channel from the 4.4mm balanced output and a 3.5mm output that supports in-line mics and S\/PDIF. An ultra-low-power mode protects your phone’s battery. It is Hi-Res Audio certified; choose maple or walnut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/3199\/8339\/files\/fiio-snowsky-melody-dac-with-3-5mm-and-4-4mm-outputs-photo-woods.jpg?v=1791325978\" alt=\"FiiO SNOWSKY Melody dongle DACs in walnut and maple\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSolid wood, made to age beautifully\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach Melody is made from aged premium wood from North America, so each has its own texture and colour. Dozens of processes, including CNC carving, polishing, eco-friendly oiling and air drying, stabilise the wood, which darkens naturally over time and becomes ever smoother and more lustrous. FiiO’s signature arc runs across the case and buttons, a blade-like line against the warm wood that also fits your fingertip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/3199\/8339\/files\/fiio-snowsky-melody-dac-with-3-5mm-and-4-4mm-outputs-photo-craft.jpg?v=1791325982\" alt=\"The FiiO SNOWSKY Melody being machined and finished, and held in the hand\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSerious parts inside\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith a high-performance USB chip, an audiophile-grade DSP and two Cirrus Logic CS43131 DACs, FiiO’s hardware and software teams pushed the Melody to new heights in measurements, heat and power use, and in listening.
