I sure hope they start selling them with the am3b. I am about to get a q5 and really want the am3b

Yes. I am aware of the special cable needed. I wish my phone had aptx bluetooth. I will still give a listen with the standard bluetooth. I however do hear a difference between a 16/44 flac and 24/96 or 24/192 of the same album though this could be the remastering. I don't consider a 4 inch long...

I only have flac files. The aristo has bluetooth 4.2 which is sbc?? Anyways I don't care about the bluetooth. I want to play my hi res flac files wired thru usb using usb audio player pro. I know the q5 months ago had issues with some android phones. I think all I need is an otg micro b to micro...

Ok. I was using a zte axon mini 7 with a fiio a5 amp. It sounded pretty good with the internal hi fi dac but the phone died. The touch screen just stopped working. Cost more to repair than cost new lol. So now I have a cheap lg aristo 2 plus. I actually like it better because it has a removable...

Thanks. I will be hooked to a cable. My phone does not have aptX so I can't even transmit 16/44 to the q5. I have quite Abit of hi res. You do realize that DSD over Bluetooth if futile?

Ya thought it was along shot. How do you like the q5 paired with a phone. I am considering pairing a q5 with my axon 7 mini I but still torn between just getting a dap like fiio x7ii. I currently have a 200gb SD in my axon but 124/96 will eat that up fairly fast. Still a lot of music. The 400gb...

Just for a long shot are you absolutely sure in settings in UAPP that you do not have the play DSD over PCM box checked?

Ya there is a cable on eBay. It is listed here in the first couple of pages or so on this thread but if you search oppo ha2 se cable you will find it. I will look and post a link! Here is a link to it...

Ugh. I am still torn between getting a q5 for my phone or a separate dap. The mass storage of the cayin n5ii or go for broke with the fiio x7ii. I could live with having to pop a different SD card into my phone but the library maintenance would be horrible lol. Withe the cayin n5ii I have a...

Us them whoever lmao

So we know nothing lol. Subjective

Actually I am not so concerned about the battery life of the q5 but that of my phone. It is an axon 7mini. Currently I am using it's internal akm DAC with uapp. Also have a fiio a5 hooked to it's headphone out port. I can use a powerbank when needed to keep the phone charged and still play...

Not trying to open a can of worms here but I would like to know honestly how the q5 sounds compared to the all in one cayin n5ii dap. Cayin claims the single DAC chip they use costs more than a pair of akm 4490. I would love to use my phone but the daps have better battery life and with double...

Lol you beat me to it

They sell the amp modules separately. They are already packaged. How hard can it be to package the q5 without a module lol. The package would be smaller so less cost for package ! Then again they seem to be made from unobtanium anyways lol

Well I decided I will eventually get a q5 but when and only when they come with the am5 packaged with them or they are sold without an amp module so we can choose!!

My phone doesn't have aptX to play even CD quality via Bluetooth! I will not play anything less than cd quality and Bluetooth is a battery drainer all it's own! All I have is standard Apt

There has got to be a way to make a cable that will allow powerbank to charge phone and use q5 at same time lol.

I am beginning to think I will have to live with the phones battery life. If I keep the screen off it is not so bad!

Ok but what c cable is that. If the one from eBay it won't allow to charge at all. It has to be cable that was reverse charging the q5 from the phone. Then plug charger into side of q5 and see if the phone charges .

Maybe someone here who has the q5 and a phone that gets sucked out can try with the q5 in charge and see if it charges their phone(original phone connect cable) worst scenario is I can listen for about 3 hours or so in airplane mode and recharge phone but man if the above worked it would be...

Well I could always use male c to micro female adapter block at phone but dislike them. They seem to get pretty warm lol.

Somehow I am amazed that some one else has not tried that yet? I am also hoping fiio will start selling a q5 with the am5 module! Does the q5 cable come with a c connect for the phone end?

Hmm. I am very interested in this q5. I currently have an axon 7 mini using USB audio player pro in hi res direct mode. I have a fiio a5 amp attached to it. Sounds very nice but I am now thinking if I am gonna strap an amp to it I might go with the the better DAC the q5 has.?? Only down fall is...
