The new hardware upgrades undoubtedly give the M23 some advantages in technicalities. You can hear better detail retrieval, grander staging, better control, and balance in tone when put on higher loads especially when turning to the Desktop Mode or the Hifi boost mode. Distortion control, as well as the openness of treble on the M23, is also audibly better.
This has been a fantastic product for me, with the sound quality being amazing and the build feeling durable. The minor criticism would be that it gets a bit hot during use, but nonetheless is a great device to use while working and enjoying music without distractions.
