Excellent, can't wait for the release!!! One question: will it have an ( relatively ) easy replaceable battery? ( or it will be soldered to the board... ) Best regards.

  Hi James, what does it mean? Are those screen with lots of dead pixels or maybe other issues?

    Quote:   Sorry guys for an off-topic but could you please give me a link with an explanation of the things described here. Thanks.

  Sorry, but I didn't understand. Are those 2 slots confirmed by FiiO engeneers for X5?

Guys are 2 sdxc slots confirmed for this device? Thanks.

Quote: I did. And my second pair has the same issue now: imbalance on hi-freq. But I'm tired of returning back phones. S. I think I'll wait few months and upgrade to CK100Pro...

I owned 2 HM5's and both of them were struggling from channel imbalance. First one had bass problem on left channel, I returned it back, they RMA'ed it and I got a new one. The new one had high-mid and treble problem, again on left channel. BTW same problems ( both left and right channels ) with...

My second pair of B2's got imbalance issue... These were my favourite IEM's...  

3 seconds are enough as well. :) Do you agree with me? Sure. I just posted the equipment I use and mentioned the mode of the DAC. The resolution was enough for me. ( if you believe me :))) ). BTW I just tried to pass the test with my Brainwavz HM5's - it's impossible... That's why I...

I agree with mentioned above. Same do state I. Have you noticed the difference between dates of original post of mine and of the next 2 posts ( where I show the logs ). What's wrong with the time in the logs? I used my Brainwavz B2 IEM's ( which are very analytical and have decent extension...

There is no way to prove the fact that I don't cheat, so you gonna just believe me. :)

My HM3's ( which are 2 times cheaper and are from same OEM as FA004 ) have much more better soundstage/ instrument separation. Even treble isn't so much recessed. The bad thing that ruins everything is that the treble isn't sharp/ crisp/ natural etc. It is present but it sounds very very cheap...

The treble is OK in terms of reality/ clarity but for me it is recessed over base and midrange ( maybe because I am analytical listener ). About the soundstage: I don't know how to describe that, something is wrong there.

HI, I own HM5's and I'm satisfied with SQ of them ( though I have imbalance issue over 5 - 7 kHz region ). I want to upgrade these headphones, I'm looking to HiFiMAN headphone line. Could you please help me: is HE300 or HE400 a good upgrade over HM5? If no: what can you suggest? In HM5's the...

You're right, same for me. I use fallback image to transfer files.

Quote: My RB'ed iPod 3G ( ~7G ) occasionally freezes even when I connect it MENU button pressed ( so no hard drive is activated ). So I use fallback image to transfer files: it works flawlessly. The USB issues are definitely software related. Tried on different PC's with 32 bit/ 64 bit...

Tried the last build: the problem appeared only once: the iPod was keeping spinning the disk until first reboot ( I waited 3-4 minutes, it was properly playing a track, showing no disk operation but spinning  ). However reboot fixed this ( now it takes 20 second to stop disk spinning as usual )...

Quote: Is it related to unnecessary disk idle spinning after some operations? Thanks for update. I'll try it tomorrow. :-)

Quote: Yes.

Quote: OK, I tried this on stock firmware ( no freeze ), on r31516 ( again no freeze ) and on some of Aroldan's latest builds - dated 22-07-12 and 02-08-12 ( freeze appears but not everytime, especially when there is disk activity on iPod and I connect it to my PC ). BTW I think improper...

My iPod freezes when I play a song, press pause and connect to PC. After rebooting the iPod everything is OK, until a new song is played. What is wrong here?

Quote: The only AV is MS Defender, after disabling realtime protection and enabling write cache I got something around 18 MB/ sec. on a signle 3 gig file. The bad thing about the freeze is that I'm not able to reproduce that... Maybe again MS Defender conflict.   Could you please...

Quote: Thanks for answers I'm sorry, it's too hot here, I wanted to say 10-11 MB/ sec. ;) And another thing: player sometimes freezes when I connect to PC. Only reboot helps...
