Does anyone know whether this would work with the Apple USB-C to headphone adapter? All I need is a cheap way to stream Apple Music. I would prefer not to get another iOS device, so that I am not creating an entire device on iCloud. I’m hoping that with circumvent some of the hardware issues...

What are your thoughts on the FiiO M11S vs the Hiby R6 Gen III? I'm currently trying to decided between these two and am leaning toward the R6 as I like the design better, Android 12 vs 10, and the volume knob. --- Unrelated, even with full sized headphones if Class AB gets sufficiently loud...

So ultimately is the consensus that the output of the NW-306 or NW-307 weaker than, say, the 7th generation iPod touch from a few years ago? I no longer have one, but that ran my Kato IEMs and HD6XX well enough (granted the HD's were at like 95% volume). And it sounds like even if you get the...

I will preface this by saying that I have not used this application myself, but there is an application called Dapper on the Mac App Store that claims to be a utilize to sync iTunes with DAPs and the website lists the Plenue D as a tested DAP. I know the app has been around for a long time, so...

Does this have the same playlist limitations as the D2? Only 10 playlists of 1,000 each?

Can anyone confirm whether the R2 has the same software limitation as the D2 for playlists? (E.g. only 10 playlists of max 1,000 songs each.)

I understand users wanting streaming services - but that necessitates an android underpinning to ruin semi-modern builds of popular apps. I think FiiO has done a decent job at running Android while still feeling somewhat like a dedicated device in the M6 and M9, but I also find these...

LOL - and I'm sitting here with an iPod touch 7th generation feeling fairly contempt. I like your setup. :)

That was extremely helpful. Thank you!

There is a Mac App called "Dapper" that claims to be able to sync playlists from iTunes to the Cowon Plenue D (and since the D2 runs the same software I assume it'd run the same). You could make a playlist that is your entire library and it would copy that supposedly.

Can anyone hear confirm if there is any limit on playlists? Is there a limit to the number of playlists you can have or the number of songs that can be in a given playlist? Thank you!

@FiiO Not sure if this is the place, but has anyone had any issues with their Q5S not connecting? The wired connection to my iPod touch won't connect (it will not connect to Mac either). Holding the side button to see the battery status does nothing (none of the side indicator lights will...

Thank you. In recent years Cowon has introduced so many products into the Plenue line that there is quite a bit of overlap.

Unless I’m misreading the website, the R2 is using the same dual DACs as the D2? Then what’s the point of the cost upgrade and lower battery? Is it all due to a better AMP in the R2? I thought the CS43131 included the AMP on the chipset.

I use the stock AM3E module with the HD6XX and it drives them just fine.

Unfortunately, this doesn't help. I removed the Q5S, restarted my iPod, and reconnected it. While the Q5S is actively paired to the iPod (I can see the headphone icon in the status bar and play music wirelessly) the FiiO Music app shows it as "Disconnected" on the FiiO BT Control screen. When...

My current Fiio Q5S setup - other than a few minor annoyances, I'm happy so far.

Hello - I’m using the iOS app on iOS 13.2 and the most recent FiiO Q5S firmware.

Yeah. I'm having a bad bug that I hope @FiiO address. When I tap on the Q5S it loads the controls and then immediate takes me back to the device selection screen. I sometimes get a popup to re-pair the Q5S and then it shows as disconnect (despite it actually being connected because I'm...

Where are you seeing the charging status when in USB mode? The FiiO app's BT connect section won't load for me on V0.39 (it keeps closing) and I'm very confident it is drawing a lot of power from iPod touch when it shouldn't be charging.

Is there a way to disable charing in USB mode? I feel like my iPod touch's battery life is declining much faster when plugged into the Q5S. I know it's supposed to intelligently not pull power, but I only see a charging option when using the FiiO Bluetooth app - which isn't currently working...

Here is what the completed setup looks like. Used some thing 3M tap to attach a the iPod to the Q5S. It's easy to take the iPod out if I want to use it without the Q5S. I also have a small Aukey charging brick (about the size of Apple's 5W adaptor) with 2 USB ports so I can charge the FiiO...

Okay - so an honest review from someone who does not frequent these forums and is mostly a music enthusiast and not an audiophile. My main music device for actually listening to music (as opposed to passive listening at work or on a commute) is an iPod touch 7th generation. I use a pair of...

For me, when I tap on the device it loads the controls and then immediately closes them. So I just use it via USB out.

Finally have my finished setup. A 256gb iPod touch 7th generation + a Fiio Q5S. The iPod is the perfect size for stacking with this DAC. Will listen with a pair Sennheiser HD6XX headphones.
