Fiio X5 3rd gen || 2x AKM 4490 || Balanced Out || DSD || DXD | DTS | Android || Dual Card Slot
Hi Fiio people, I have loaded new firmware 1.1.5. I can now see music files using the Devilaet Spark app that streams to my Phantom speakers. The Spark app on the X5 can control the volume of music streamed to the speakers from another source, but can not stream music to the speakers from the...- RobC

Sorry for the big red letters. I guess I am so frustrated. Oops... I raised my voice again. My bad. But away form the silly theatrics. A significant feature of FiiO on the X5III is it running Android and the opportunity to use other Android apps, particularly those that...- RobC

Dear FiiO people, this does not answer my question !!! What you advise only shows what the permissions are, NOT a way of changing those permissions. I think this why some other Android music apps can not see the music files on SD card or internal storage. Where are the actual...- RobC

Dear FiiO We do not expect you to test every app. BUT testing Apple's Music app is VERY BIG issue. Apple has MILLIONS of music subscribers !!! The problem with recognising music files on X5III is with FiiO Android code. There are many music player apps on Google that do not...- RobC

I would agree with you HaPeKa, but there are number of Android music apps than do not recognise music files on the X5. I know that here are also other apps that do recognise those files. Interestingly my Samsung Galaxy 7 Edge Android smart phone using the identical Devialet Spark...- RobC

I am on the review tour. Was so impressed with the X5-3 that I bought one for myself as soon as I had to hand the unit on to the next reviewer. I also bought the FiiO DK1 dock and RM1 Bluetooth Remote (see pic below). In my review (still in process) I have spent a bit more time on...- RobC

The only way to do a true test is to run a double blind with someone who knows what that means and using a good quality SPL meter. There are just too many subjective elements involved otherwise.- RobC

Most expensive high end peripheral HiFi gear is now gimmickry. (I mean $K power cables - good grief !) Even this whole Hi-Res music thing is a joke. There is a point at which sampling at higher frequency and bit rate to record music in digital form does not give you any more information to...- RobC

Yep, the Spark app finds and plays .m4a ALAC on other Android devices, e.g. Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge. That's the point. Spark works beautifully on other Android kit. My hope is that the X5III can be used a useful source for other HiRes audio gear than just headphone use (I know - wash my...- RobC
