Hi everyone! I was looking at the new Fiio Q3 portable amp/DAC, and I was wondering if it was worth the upgrade from the Fiio A5. I have a pair of Sennheisers HD660S, and I don't know if the sound will improve (given that the Fiio A5 could probably be outdated by now). Unfortunately I cannot...

Hello ! I own the v moda m100, and the bass is absolutely SICK ! But, ofcourse i want more.. So, any other headphones you guys own with the m100's where u feel the bass is even more intense ? If yes please make some suggestions so i can consider buying :) I read that JVC Ha-sz2000 is like the...

Hi, did anyone try out the DF Cobalt in Combination with the Fiio A5 in Car Audio and/or headphones ? I had this idea but I don't have a Fiio A5 to test it out. Would anyone with experience share their findings ?

Hi everyone this is my first post, so please let me know if this isn’t the correct place or if I’m doing something wrong. So, about a month ago I got a Fiio M9 and I have it paired with my A5 amp. I use an HD6xx and the Tin T2 IEMs with it and I love the sound. However, the M11 came out...

Hi guys, If you had to choose, would you get the Clear (with a complementary LCD2C I already own), or the LCD-3 (and get rid of the lcd2c)? Or maybe both :) ? I love the Lcd2 bass and sound signature, but I'm tempted to upgrade, would it be worth in your opinion in terms of soundstage and...

Hey guys, long time lurker who finally decided to create an account. I own the Sony NW-A35 DAP (as well as an iPhone 7) and soon my Sony XBA-N3AP iem's should arrive. While browsing on head-fi I read a bit about the power output of the A35 and I was wondering if I should invest in an AMP/DAC...

One is just a portable amp the other a DAC with an amp I know, I'm just not so sure a DAC is that necessary for a beginner like me but then there's no harm in getting one especially since A5 and idsd cost the same but then idsd le outputs 150mw at 32ohm and A5 gives 800mw at 32ohm. I am...

Hi there, So I want to know which way would give more sound, power etc: 1) Should I connect my A3 1st to my PD and then the A5 to my A3? Or 2) Should I connect my A5 1st to my PD and then the A3 to my A5? Because when I tried the number 2 way it "seemed" like I got more power but wasn't...

Hi This is the upgrade i am looking for, BUT how big is the difference in percentages % between the two sets ?

Ok. My phones are ath m50x and my iem's are 1more triple driver. I am getting a new phone with hi fi DAC. I use USB audio player pro. The new version 4 is nice. I can't decide on the a3 or a5. I am A bit concerned the a5 may be just to powerful to make good use of the volume pot. Please all...

So continuing. Original thread: Hi there, I just want to know: If there's a way to connect two Fiio A3 amps to my Cowon Plenue D? And is it possible to amplify the sound so that it uses both amps as one so the sounds louder/amplified even more? Sorry if the wording is wrong but I'm not...

Hello. Wanted to share this with all of you who wants to find a better to carry your X5 and A5. After using the A5 with the X5iii, I wanted to make it a permanent part of my setup because of the sound improvements. Much complaint for the X5iii on the Chinese forums is related to how it...

Hi. I want to buy an amp to increase bass in my Sony XB950BT headphone. And I don't know witch is better between E17k and A5. I use iPhone for listening and the only goal of buying amp for me is bass boosting. Please help

Hi there, I'm currently using an Alpen 2/A5 combo with a pair of Sennheisers PXC 450 for two things: HiFi Tidal on my Nexus 6P, and SoundWire also on the 6P to watch TV with. I'm considering getting a Jotunheim with the DAC module for the latter as a permanent fixture in my living room so I...
