What do you folks say now that you have had the portable lightning to 3.5 headphone Jack adapters? what seems to last and sound best? thank you.

Are the eBay repl parts good or garbag? https://www.ebay.com/itm/Replacement-Ear-Pads-For-Sennheiser-HD545-HD565-HD580-HD600-HD650-with-Ear-Cup/401308556262?hash=item5d6fda9be6:g:c6gAAOSw6IlcgG0U...

Any and all foam in my Sennheiser HD 580 Precision is disintegrating/turning to powder. Is It worth is to replace just the foam headband ear pads? Or should I replace other parts like the drivers also, or even wire? Just wondering because they are so old the foam is disappearin, should I...

I have a Q5 I wish I had not bought it. If you have money to burn and are curios, then go for it. I have a iPhone xs max and a 6plus. I like a hard wire connection but the Q5 connection is too fragile. Best wishes to all.

I have the Q5 For me it is a WASTE of $$$ The one cord you buy with the unit gets broken or lost. It cost close to buying a new unit to replace with shipping from some guy in china. Tell me if anyone has found a good hardwire/usb to apple lighting cable replacement, for a good price, as in $10...

Soooo are we not allowed to answer a post, with a clean and reasonable answer without getting attacked? I have a Asgard and a Q5 and have owned a bit of quality equipment! so I am answering from actual experience and ownership!

My two cents is, go with anything SCHIIT OVER FIIO.

Ditto I cannot find a way to replace lighting to usb micro for Apple products.

I am asking these questions due to not finding answers yet. Fiio Q5 Is the battery replaceable? How many years is the battery good for? Cost of replacement battery? Does it make a big difference when listening to iTunes on a iPhone connected to studio monitor speakers? Or even $200 earbuds...

When will the am3b amp come with the FiiO Q5? Not the am3a.

So the battery is not replaceable. Is any of you folks batteries dead or dying? Guess on battery longevity before the unit is junk! Thank you.

Is the battery replaceable? I have not seen any yet. Cost and ease of?

What do you say about the sound quality compared to your OPPO? I am trying to find the best way to get all my music to my stereo, speakers and head phones. I am thinking with the OPPO I also get a top blu ray player etc. I buy my music on CD and then put in AIFF format in iTunes on my Mac Pro...

Yes but how much are we giving up by using radio waves vs hardwire?

Would the be any benefit to plugging my 5th gen. ipod video/classic into this or any other DAC and then to my receiver or Yamaha HS50m active speakers? Also again from my MAC PRO/desk top computer to my systems? What would be the best way to transfer the information from the ipod or Mac to...

Thank you. Is there a SQ or build quality/durability and support difference in these? I try to buy USA when I feel it is a good choice. Do think there is a clear winner for price and overall quality and support? Does it make a difference that AIFF is the format I am using?

My main concern is sound quality 2. ease of listening to all my music on CD 3.price 4. ease of doing so. 5. Is there a better way of doing so than with what I already have and am using? I have: Mac Pro mid 2010 with:S/PDIF OPTICAL, 3.5/1/8 headphone jack, USB, HDMI /...
