It seems my Fiio Q1 doesn't work when i turn it on first and then connect it to USB on Win7 machine
 
It only works when first connected to USB and then turned on.
 
Is this an issue?

My q1 works with my phone if I connect it with 2 cords: micro USB to USB female, and USB to micro USB. But when I use a single micro male to micro male it doesn't work. Faulty cable? (got it cheap off eBay)

Dear FiiO
Thanks for the answer. Is it FIR interpolation or IIR interpolation filter? Since they are both offered in PCM5102. 
 
"The PCM5102 provides 2 types of interpolation filter. Users can select which filter to use by using the FLT pin (pin11)"

FLT Pin	Description
0	FIR Normal x8/x4/x2/x1 Interpolation Filters
1	IIR Low Latency x8/x4/x2/x1 Interpolation Filters

Dear DjBobby,
 
This one: IIR Low Latency x8/x4/x2/x1 Interpolation Filters
 
Best regards

This is really a great device for the price. I've been travelling a lot and using the q1 extensively. Works great with all my cans, even my lcd2's. Such a steal.

I'd love to know how folks running the latest iOS version are using the Q1 with an iPhone/iPod/iPad. I just bought the MFI certified lightning to USB cable from Zeskit which has a ton of good reviews. That, combined with a micro USB to USB female adapter gets me nothing on any of my iDevices. I've also tried other lightning cables in this configuration with no luck.
 
I'm wondering if this is by Apple's design via last week's latest iOS update.
 
Anybody running current iOS and able to use the lightning out into the Q1?!

Yep- iPhone SE, IOS 10.3.1
 
Using this cable - http://penonaudio.com/L19-Lightning-to-Micro-USB
 
Works perfectly

It only works when first connected to USB and then turned on.

Is this an issue?

Anyone?

 

[FiiO]

Anyone?

Dear maheeinfy,
 
We are not quite sure about the issue you mentioned. Did you turn on the CHG swtich in the Q1? Or you may change another USB cables and UAB ports to see whether it helps?
 
Best regards

to follow on from Brooke....

Same here except I'm using the iPhone 7. I have all the same gear as the original poster and tests it out 10 minutes ago

It turns out it was my computer. I did not shut it down for a while
 
I rebooted by computer and my Fiio Q1 works fine, whether it was turned on or not prior to plugging into laptop

Really impressed by the sound of the Q1 here, I honestly can't think of a better (simple) DAC / HP-Amp for my iPad Air. The sound in the (high-)mid and bass region is way more articulated / detailed in comparison to the iPad's headphone output, which has a tendency to sound soft and squashed, especially with my preferred Sennheiser HD-26 PRO (also "witnessed" on Beyerdynamic DT-770s and Focal Spirit Professionals). Honestly, the iPad doesn't do it in an unpleasant way, but the additional detail and punch are missing and "traded in" for some uncontrolled rumbly low-end.
But the Q1 can also stand up against bigger guys: When connected to the computer, the little Fiio unit's sound signature goes way more into direction of my (expensive) Lynx Hilo reference A/D D/A system than I would like to admit.

For the price, it's revolutionary!
