I have owned my X5ii since mid July and I am certainly very happy with the build & sound quality.  The scroll wheel is, of course, the weakest link in it's chain so I hope it will withstand at least 3 years of use. I bought a pair of AKG K550's about a month ago and have used them for several...

From the photographs it looks like the 3.5mm plug on the T20's is straight and not L-shaped.   Surely because these are headphones intended for portable use then surely it woould have been better to have an L-shaped connector.   What is everyone else's preference?   Is it a straight...

At the place where I work I already knew that 2 people had already bought FiiO's - which is how I found out about the brand.  It turns out that there is now 4 of us who own FiiO's.   Hopefully FiiO as a company continues to go from strength to strength.   I really like my x5ii.  I do wish the...

A friend of mine (who owns a FiiO x3) found this very similar device from a well known UK retailer. http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/4281289.htm   Look at the similarities.

In a previous post scracy said that he "hated" the akg k550's.   I have just bought a FiiO x5ii (to replace my 10 year old Creative Zen Vision:M (60GB) mp3 player (who else has owned one of those?)).   After reading many many reviews, I bought a pair of AKG K550's.   Now it is obvious that...

As I posted earlier I received my new FiiO x5ii today.   Some posts mention updating the firmware.   Has anyone updated the firmware since receiving their new FiiO x5ii?   What improvements \ benefits are there from any updates?

+-----------------------------+ |       FiiO x5ii Owners Club       | +-----------------------------+   I've just joined the club... It arrived today. microSDXC card inserted, formatted, device connected to PC, a few music folders copied over (FLAC format) .... and 'Let the Music Commence'

Is there a cover charge for this? 

I will be buying a FiiO x5ii soon.  I am currently researching which microSD cards to buy to insert into the device. My current music \ audio collection is about 60GB so I could get away with buying 2 x 64Gb cards.   As I understand it the correct type of card is:-   micro SDXC Class 10...

I own the Cambridge Audio Minx m5 2.1 speakers for PC.  The 'controller' which is used to turn the speakers on and off and control the volume has a turn wheel which sounds very like the one descibed on these FiiO products. (I've just tried to include an image but the forum sys I do not have...

Is there anyone living in the UK reading this thread who has bought a final release FiiO x5ii?   1. Which company did you buy it from?   2. Did it include a case?  What is it like?   3. What is the turn wheel like (some who had the 'tour' model said that the final model version would be...

FiiO x5ii - choosing the right type of headphones \ earphones. I am definitely going to buy a FiiO x5ii but I am getting overwhelmed with trying to choose headphones or earphones to use with it. The only earphones that I own are £20 Sennheiser's which are OK but I am looking to buy either...

Hello all   I'm new to this forum (well, I've been reading about the FiiO x3ii and now the FiiO x5ii players for some weeks now). I'm certainly no expert as many of you here are but I do love listening to music (mostly orchestral \ synth based melodic \ amibient music eg JMJ, Vangelis...
