    The Qudelix-5K thread

    See https://www.qudelix.com/pages/forum?p=post%2Fgoogle-pixel-android-13-app-connection-issue-12506176 Seems like the devs are on it.

    The Qudelix-5K thread

    Apparently, the Switch and PS4/5 controllers require special settings to be enabled on the DAC. For the Switch, I needed to jump into the Qudelix app and change the 5K from 24bit bit depth to 16bit bit depth for USB audio. I was already using 48khz, but it also requires a sampling rate for USB...

    Hmm... Just started the Qudelix app and there's an update with Nintendo Switch/PS4/5 USB audio support!

    Yah. I think it all comes down to the mics. Way before they released, even Qudelix was reluctant to add ambient mode right off the hop, and then warned that because the mic was lower sensitivity and processed it may be a little weird. Hanesu, I guess as a frame of reference, imagine you're...

    It's present, but the mic isn't sensitive enough for it to be really useful. I found the ambient mode on the ES100 to be way better, but that mic is extremely sensitive, making it useless for taking calls. Feels like a tradeoff since neither has a dedicated mic just for ambient.

    The Qudelix-5K thread

    Yah. Before getting into wireless DACs, I used to make heavy use of an Android EQ, and actually found that whichever app I used, it would always get killed and start blasting sound in my ears. This got me to consider the ES100 (which was an awesome upgrade); and then I was hotly anticipating...

    I think if you're 100% satisfied with the SQ of what you have, don't change anything; if it ain't broke, don't fix it. If you find yourself reaching for the EQ on your source devices for any reason, the 5K may simplify things as you can make pretty much any adjustment on the DAC. As far as...

    I hope they have an option to keep the current behavior. I'm digging being able to just answer a call on my phone while in USB DAC mode.

    The Qudelix-5K thread

    When I read that my knee-jerk was "what're you complaining about," but taking a look at the PEQ, for each of the 10 bands, it's a byte for the filter, an unsigned short for the frequency, and a float for the gain and Q. All this plus a float for the pregain, plus a few pairs of bytes for the...

    The Qudelix-5K thread

    I've had success, but only when pointing it directly at my mouth and speaking directly into the mic (which is located on the edge with the headphone jacks). While speaking, background noise is completely absent. While not, background noise is present, but deeply attenuated. The further away...

    For what it's worth, the Android app update rolled in. If it doesn't show up in your My Apps and Games panel, it may help to go to the app listing in Google Play and look for an Update button. The changes are as described above. The highlight is LED brightness control...because these buttons...

    The Qudelix-5K thread

    Yeah. I just left it on None. I'm assuming this means that if the DAC was on when I connected it, it'll remain on and same if it was off. As for the double clicks, my success rate has been around 95% while listening to music. The 5% of times I single tap by mistake, the music stops, and I'm...

    Oh and btw, the updates in practical terms are: - Help text added to most views in the app. The text are paragraphs that sit at the bottom of each view and describe how everything works. For example: - There are USB power modes now. So you can tell the device what to do when the device is...

    The actual control app has been updated on mobile app stores. On Android there was an app update in the Play store. There was also a firmware update (see screenshot). Note that it at least took me 5 minutes to install. Not bad.

    The Qudelix-5K thread

    I got a sound whenever the device starts and stops sending audio. The sound happens just before audio starts, and shortly after audio stops. It's the sorta sound you'd get when plugging headphones into an old school cassette Walkman while it was running. Here're all the noises I hear from...
