When there, under Battery, make sure “Unrestricted” is selected.

I don’t know if this has been posted already, I apologize if it has. The 5k is on Drop right now, for $89 USD. I spent $150 USD a few months ago shipped+duty from Korea to Canada, I am so frickin tempted to get one more…. How can you go wrong at this price!!! aarrggghhh! If only I didn’t have...

Original battery here in Canada was $98.99 CAD +13%tax + shipping! I bought a 2500mAh one on Aliexpress for around $30 shipped a couple of years ago but didn’t install it until a couple of weeks ago. The original one was still holding ok so I charged it full before removing it, just in case...

I wonder what is the reason for such option unless it's for when two wired headsets are connected at the same time... I have mine set to auto, I switch between balanced and regular headphones all the time. Is there any benefit for manually setting it on 3.5 or 2.5 instead?

I know, I connect it over BT to Android (using LDAC hi-res codec) and now to iPhone using the included usbC-usbC cable and this adapter. I prefer this adapter to usbC-Lightning or microUSB-Lightning cables first because of the low cost and second because I can use the adapter with other...

My bad on the iOS app connectivity, you’re right, I should have known that, lol. I know Q5 can connect to 2 devices over BT but with iOS devices you can only get lossless audio over cable so I don’t even bother BT pairing it with iPhone. Until now I was using the Q5 only with Android and iPads...

Hi all, I just shared my experience with a cheap Ligthning to usbC adapter in a different thread, I hope it helps… Post in thread 'The Qudelix-5K thread' https://www.head-fi.org/threads/the-qudelix-5k-thread.914628/post-17717550

Hi all, I just wanted to share this hoping it would help other iOS users. I’ve been using the Q5 and a bunch of other portable DACs mostly with Android devices and iPads. I also have a microUSB - to lightning cable but it a subclass-to-lightning, so I’ve been looking for some decent options. I...

I only use them with phones and tablets with mostly locally stored files, I don’t have Roon. They sound great indeed but with the cipher v2 (directly on iPhones or with the Anker usbC adapter) they are truly on another level. I can come close with mojo1, Q5 and other days and adapters but still...

I got the 5K today. Using the iSine 20 on the balanced connection with the iSine 20 preset by oratory 1990.seems to be closer to my cipher v2 setup.

I have too many, lol (Earstudio ES100, AK XB10, mojo2, cipher v2, cipher BT, Xduoo Link, Hidizs Sonata, iBasso DC01...) and have been thinking of getting the 5K since before it was released, lol. Lately, I was contemplating getting the mojo2 instead but a couple of days ago I didn't resist...

I have, with Mojo 1st gen. I love the Mojo and use it with a lot of headphones, but when it comes to iSine, Cipher v2 is king. And works awesome with the Anker usbC to Lightning. For the experience on the mojo to be close you need to play with eq,

Thanks to Apple's MagSafe solution I can now finally attach the Mojo to all my devices rather easily. I bought this "wall" magnetic MagSafe compatible ring on Amazon and it works great with either iPhones directly to iPhones, iPhones with MagSafe case or any other devices providing you stick a...

Oh, I know that! I’m trying to find another one, just in case, lol

Although I agree the BT cipher is crap (even the connectors come off the buds), the second gen Lightning cipher is amazing. It‘s output is actually balanced and eq settings from the Audeze iOS app get saved on the cipher. It also works great on any usbC devices (iPad, Android, pc…) with the...
