    PSB M4U 2

    Mine also developed the cracks, I then had to force the German retailer to send me a replacement during warranty. These new also developed the same cracks after 1+ year plus wiring to one earcup seems also to break... BUT: the sound is so incredible great without too much boost in any aspect...

    SONY WH1000XM3 - better than QC35 in noise cancelling?

    That's correct, you're right Sorry for the misunderstanding If you're on Android maybe the app Tasker may help using this profile here with a specific action to trigger it when you leave your music app? http://tasker.wikidot.com/bluetooth-auto-turn-off But if you stop it you could also...

    SONY WH1000XM3 - better than QC35 in noise cancelling?

    You have to use the app which lets you change the auto-off time (which seems to be disabled on yours - one improvement compared to the predecessors where you can not use them indefinitely just for ANC without music)

    SONY WH1000XM3 - better than QC35 in noise cancelling?

    SONY WH1000XM3 - better than QC35 in noise cancelling?

    Well, to me the QC35 (II) sounded thick but tamed somehow. I own the M2's and the NC felt noticably better while comparing them with QC35 in noise environment. While commuting by train I actually love the M2's. No idea if the M3's are better but they were nearly twice the price during my...

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

    There is also USB-B to B from FiiO named ML06 which should prevent reverse charging. HTH

    PSB M4U 2

    I also got some cracks near the cups swivel hinge with no issues. The worse were these at the opposite side of the screws! My first pair completely fell apart and lost the screws. The second showed the same cracks (sent it immediately back to the distributor) and my current third pair does show...

    In the end it's more about bass and mids than treble I think. Maybe you find this useful and hopefully it matches your taste and experience when you audition the Q5. I can recommend at least to try it! :-)

    Reply to review by 'chrisba' on item 'FiiO Q5 Flagship Bluetooth and DSD-Capable DAC & Amplifier'

    Thank you very much! Now I have to answer lengthy ;-) The major improvement to me was the ground solid bass with enhanced treble providing more air and fun (bass makes me happy). When I remember correctly the width was "enlarged" due to the treble - but not that much. For me it is already very...

    Introduction First, I want to thank FiiO for giving me the opportunity to write a review of their newest DAC & Amp Q5 by taking part in the review tour and test this baby free of charge. I get nothing else, but the chance to help others (you) by expressing my honest experiences during these...

    PSB M4U 2

    For my taste active M4U2 is a lot better than passive: more and heavier bass and more vivid treble. Actually more sounding like really listening to speakers. But that's my taste :-)

    FiiO F9, F9Pro-Detachable MMCX connector,Hi-Res Audio Certified,2.5mm TRRS/3.5mm audio cable

    Folks, I am planning to sell my F9pros (as I'm completely happy with F9 origs for transparency and FH1 for bass). So if anybody is interested: PM me (will ship across Europe, preferably Germany). But nevertheless: have a bit more time left with 'em would also be of interest in order to test the...

    Fiio X5 3rd gen || 2x AKM 4490 || Balanced Out || DSD || DXD | DTS | Android || Dual Card Slot

    Besides that I was never able to tell Google music to use one of the added SD cards (irrelevant which slot or both filled - not displayed as option) the annoying part also was that the internal memory was nearly instantly "filled" from perspective of the app but OS still displayed 2xGB free...

    Ah again the issue I also discussed in this Google support forum posts with sudofx (sadly I must admit that his pessimistic conclusion prove right till now). Here is the link - hoping that a smart genius will be able to solve the underlying problem or provide a workaround (thinking of symbolic...
