Has anyone used a 512 GB SD-card in their Fiio X5 (1st gen) or can test for me if it would work? I want to buy one for my 1st gen X5 but don't wanna drop the dough on the SD-card before I know it should work (I know about the number-of-files-limitation and it wouldn't be a problem).

Hello folks,   I'm having another lazy day (very little energy) and will not come today. I'm sure you'll have a fun meet. One day I'll make it too! ;)   Take care, Roland

Thank you for mentioning me, so I got a notification e-mail, Edgar. ;) July 11th sounds fine to me. I noted it down in my week-planner. If I have the time and energy I want to come for sure.

April 18th sounds fine to me. =)

  Thirded. I'm pretty sure I've accidentally skipped to the next or previous track while it was screenlocked when pulling the X5 out of my pocket or putting it into the pocket considerably more often than I've intentionally used the feature. It's easily the most annoying thing about the X5 for...

  I just updated to FW 2.00 and while I got used to the X5's signature quite quickly and found it closer to the DX100 than to the X3 after a short while, updating to FW 2.00 has improved the sound quality by another major step IMO. I didn't listen to it right before upgrading to FW 2.00, but I...

  There, you answered your own question. FiiO doesn't have the funds that Apple has and won't sell the amount of units Apple would sell, so obviously, they cannot throw as much capital at the development of their "Walkman" as Apple, even if they would want to.

  File sizes of the two firmwares 2.0 are exactly the same. This means that it's very likely that they're also bit-identical (not only same size, but also exactly the same content).

I haven't compared them side by side, but I was able to borrow an X3 for a few days and have now owned the X5 for 3 days and imo the X5 offers better value than the X3 based already on sound quality/price ratio alone. For more details you can check out my posting in the X5 thread...

I picked my X5 up from my local distributor today and I want to say, I'm very satisfied. It looks great, feels great, and I have zero qualms about interface so far. The sound is good. It's not DX100-perfect (like the way, the DX100 never left me wish for anything more/different at all), but I'd...

  Sounds strange, but more like a different problem, than the amp cutting out due to electrostatic discharge, to me. Do you have the auto screen rotator turned on or off on your DX100?

Quote:   If the music really paused for half a second, then it's probably something different. For me only the volume went away for half a second but when it came back I always thought that the playback of the track had continued, even while I couldn't actually hear the music. Is there a...

Quote:   Assuming this would work more or less, wouldn't this be exactly the thing I don't want to do: 'reducing' the problem, without really eliminating it?

Quote:   Hey, thanks for the suggestion!   Do others this could work, too? A friend of mine, who is a very competent electronics engineer, said that the electricity would enter into the DX100 through the headphone-headband (I used DT250-250 with my DX100 all the time and I think they...

I'm having a serious problem with my DX100 that I think can only be related to sensitivity of the DX100 to electrostatic discharge.   I got my DX100 end of April 2012 and noticed pretty soon that sometines when I unlocked my postbox or apartment door the volume would fade away for ~half a...
