Thanks for responding, much appreciated. Honestly, I would imagine the risk of that happening is much greater with different links to Google Drive floating around the Internet shared between users than if you just had a normal download page with some warnings/information. The need/will to...- improwise

Having similar problems and neither of the firmwares seem to solve it. In fact, it seems impossible for Fiio to even tell what is the latest firmware and where to find it. Also, having been told to install some beta firmware (vB.18) I now find the K9 Pro to be always warm, even when turned off...- improwise

A Questionnaire About FiiO K9 Pro[Closed]
I think you should highlight this more in the actual app, as I think there are many users that would imagine both that EQ works on all inputs and also filters. I know it's somewhere in the documentation ( probably) but who reads that unless you really need to? :) -

Thanks. Does this mean that filters don't work when using USB? -

Mark Levinson № 5909 headphone
Having struggled most of the day with getting my PC, Spotify/Tidal, my DAC/AMP and finally my headphones all to be happy togheter and actually work, the idea of just using an USB-C cable to my 5909s seems more and more tempting :D I still believe that "active headphones" are the future, and...- improwise

Mark Levinson № 5909 headphone
Thanks. I mainly got the 5909s with wireless usage intended, but due to a sports related mishap, I have found myself confined to WFH deskwork for a few months so that wireless on the go usage hasn't really manifested itself :) Because of that, I find myself going down the rabbit hole of thinking...- improwise

This might sound like a really weird question, but has anyone heard both this and the Focal Stellia and can comment on if they have a similar sound profile? The Stellia will of course be better from an objective standpoint as it should, but mostly interested in if they have a similar "signature"...- improwise

Earpads for the Hifiman Arya Now Available!
Will these solve the problem of the original ear pads causing creaking when you wear glasses? It seems to be the "skin facing" fabric on the original ear pads that is the source of the problem, have had the same with other Hifiman headphones. No problem with other manufacturers using more...- improwise

My point was that ANC on affects sound more than I feel is warranted for ANC reasons. Now, if the sound resulting of that is good or bad is up to everyone to decide themselves, but I feel that if you like it, you shouldn't really be forced to enable ANC to get it unless you really want ANC. Or...- improwise

Ye, agreed, currently it's like ANC is needed if you want the best bass (or at least most of it), even though you do not want nor need ANC. Mostly working from home these days, I rarely need ANC like pre pandemic times.- improwise
