    FiiO Q5, Flagship DAC/Amp, an Dual DAC, USB/Optical/Coaxial/Line in, share the same amp module with X7.

    Wha really ? I’m actually debating with myself whether I’d buy a DAP with play store like R6 pro over phone + Q5 - mainly through Bluetooth for convenience of not having a brick though. Could you elaborate your comparison between Q5 & R6 Pro ? Cheers

    I am experiencing some bright clicking sound on high hats in specific songs ... It's not the case everywhere, mainly in electronic music. This is weird, I'm using the unit in bluetooth through my pixel 3, never had this issue before. Can you guys try this song through apt-x and let me know if...

    AudioQuest NightOwl - A closed-back NightHawk

    I've read a few posts on this topic and I've seen people saying the same thing with the leather pads. Maybe I didn't say it with the right word, harsh might not be the best term. On certain songs, not all, some frequencies resonate too much for my ears and it can be unpleasant. I've tried the...

    AudioQuest NightOwl - A closed-back NightHawk

    Hey, I found a brand new NO Carbon in France for 299€, I couldn't resist to buy it after what I've read here ... I'm using it on a FiiO Q5, with the stock cable + leather pads. I mainly listen to electronic music, such as Max Cooper but also like artist like Zero 7. Headspace is great, bass...

    Dude, if you put aptx on your developer option (and this is the only way to manually change things on android) and hear a sound it's working. If you put aac, connection reset, you can hear your music, it's working. If you put LDAC, connection reset and it just doesn't work. If it doesn't work...

    I can force AAC and aptx on my Q5 through Android. Default connection is aptx. Android 8, Galaxy S7

    The New HIBY R3 II is here. 4.4MM Jack; Improved Sound and Bluetooth.

    I poorly worded my opinion. I think the BT chip is poorly implemented. FiiO Q5 has the same one and it's working flawlessly. I think the wifi chip is bad, as it's always the case with cheap chinese electronic devices (smartphones for example).. + poorly implemented.

    I'm probably going to sell mine, I'm based in France if anyone's interested. My reasons below : When you use BT as a receiver mode, it shuts down wifi then BT is disconnected after a few minute on my Galaxy S7 (didn't happen in the previous firmware, but the sound started to crackle after 40-50...

    I think some part of the cpu integrates the data, FiiO doesn't have one. That would be my guess.

    Well I've got the Hiby R3, which has a better form factor than your M7 for stacking, in my opinion. I understand your strategy, you want to have different devices with different functionalities, but I think you're taking the wrong direction doing so if that means limiting the Q5 BT...

    Ok I didn't know it was the normal behaviour. Sounds fine to me. Hiby R3 is getting the LDAC certification for both sending and receiving audio signal, as @Joe Bloggs stated in the Hiby R3 thread. What prevents you from trying to get the LDAC certification for receiving audio signal?

    Pairing the R3 with FiiO Q5 is perfect. Sounds is much better through my Q5 with my pair of Pinnacle P1. R3 is fine for its price point, but I'm just in love with the combo P1 + Q5 :) Unfortunatly the coaxial cable doesn't work, I emailed Hiby, they quickly replied the first time but it's...

    Aptx codec is only supported for sending signal (from R3 to headset), it doesn't work the other way (from smartphone to R3).

    @Joe Bloggs One thing is really annoying, the clock time that keeps resetting to Beijing Time. Every time you connect to WiFi it resets ...... Also the loading time of the cover art is really long ... I've got a Samsung Class 10 UHS-I U3. Could it be optimized in the next patch ?
