I received a NEW AK240 two days ago and have been testing on and off (Hey I Have Busy life).. So far so good.. The wifi connected to my music easily and the range is very good. My wireless router is on the 2nd level and I was receiving without any drop outs at 60-75 feet away.   The...

I shipped the unit back today.. I guess you can't expect much for $2500 these days

Pay attention.... The Bluetooth range is listed in the manual as "8 inches .... Look down add 5 inches.... that's how much 8 inches is.... Even if Bluetooth had the bandwidth...it wouldn't make a lot of difference unless maybe you duct tape the AK240 to the side of your head.. Keep in mind...

I checked out the Astell & Kern AK240 at the recent Rocky Mountain Audio Fest in Denver and the read the review in the audiophile magazine. I think I was sold when heard them ... I purchased the thru Amazon and have been testing them for about a week. The positives: Easy to use intuitive...

All the reading of this forum won't fix the file management issues with the X3. I only check in here occasionally to see if that long promised resolution from FIIO has manifested yet.. All I see is that I am not the only person that has experienced this problem. I do however seem to be the only...

I seem to remember some promise that when the X5 was released that FIIO would be addressing the file management/SD card issues with the X3 units. I'm not seeing any new firmware downloads for the X# but am seeing several for the X5 already. So if you were one of those folks that plunked down...

I see that a lot of people (not in the peoples republic) still have file management issues with the X-3. the FIIO statement about 5000 units being sold ... in country without complaints is probably true. Good chance you get either shot or imprisoned for life for speaking out against any industry...

I wouldn't exactly be getting in line to buy the new X-5 until they actually resolve the issues with the X-3. It almost seems like reviewers are paid by FIIO to review their products. I know they would never send one to me to test because well they might not want to hear what I have to say if...

This message is specifically for geeee--Locks. It's just wonderful that you believe what Fiio tells you. The X3 has had 3 firmware updates since I received my first unit. None of these file management issues were ever rectified. There are hundreds posts in this forum in several different areas...

Why is it that my $35 sansa clip player can effortlessly organize and play all my FLAC files and the $200 X3 cannot?

I see the X5 has been released and already has two firmware updates.... Welcome all you beta testers.....Maybe they will get all the problems ironed out or maybe they will just sell you a newer expensive model....... What happened to those promised firmware updates for the X3 that was going to...

This is a response to "hard head" above. Whether or not Fiio is TRYING to fix the problems with their product is not the issue. The issue is that it has problems and they are still selling it...and getting ready to sell another product.... Apple ..... who cares about what Apple does or doesn't...

I'm just checking in on this thread and I see that the X3 still has file management problems. I have received messages from Fiio saying that MY problem is just an isolated problem that no one else is having ..... uh huh, yeah ,right ... Their solution is to send my X3, the 64 GB card and the...

It's really too bad that FII0 is going to leave all the x3 owners in the lurch with the poor functioning file recognition and management. Mine just sits around and collects dust... Maybe a generous trade in offer should be a consideration...What a concept ...Huh?
