pictures, may cause the M3 to slow down while sifting through them looking
for music files. It is recommended to dedicate the micro SD card on the
M3 to music.
4. Playing high bitrate files from slow micro SD card may cause stuttering.
Class 6 or above genuine micro SD cards are recommended.
5. Unpredictable ordering of files, such as placing several .ape and .cue files in
the same directory.
The following directory structure is recommended:
create separate folders for albums by the same artist, and open subfolders
within each artist folder to hold single albums in separate subfolders.
6. A mixture of music files of several different codecs and sample rates may
also slow down the player. It is recommended to place files of different
codecs and sample rates into separate folders and to play files of the same
type in sequence from these folders, to prevent the M3 from having to
switch between different decoders frequently.

Why does the M3 get a bit hot in operation?
A: The M3 utilizes an SoC with high clock speed, a separate DAC, and (also
separately) a high power headphone amplifier, thus dissipating way more
power than consumer DAPs typically performing computation, DAC and
amplification all on the SoC. Apart from outputting more power to your
headphones, a lot of this power is also dissipated as heat, thus causing the
M3 to heat up slightly in operation; but this does not endanger the M3 or
the listener in any way.
