A question...

Am I going to hear a significant sq difference with my N5 if I include a C5 amp?
This will (initially) be through the Havi B3 old version.

yes you can provided u have a good interconnect. Stock interconnect is terrible

Hi All,
 
I've just received my N5 and wanted to know, is the wheel supposed to click? because mine is really smooth and you can barely feel the clicks? also center knob is kinda raised.. 
 
 
Thanks!

Thanks audio123, I was afraid it's faulty.. Some people said the wheel is stiff or clicks are precise and mine is actually very easy to turn, feels 'loose' in fact

Interesting. So how does one determine the quality of an interconnect other than price?

the cable material and cable geometry

Can you recommend the least expensive good one?

Hi, got a question here, it seems that the N5 can sometimes turn off automatically when the headphone jack is plugged in, and a song started to play. Has anyone else encountered this? I had it when the battery is about 50%~ish. After when I charge it, it comes back to normal. I tried both 3.5mm and 2.5mm output. Without any headphone jacks, the song played continuously (I do not know the quality, since none of the headphones are plugged in). Then, once the headphones are plugged in, it will automatically shut off, with a light pop from the headphones.
 
My guess is hardware related, something like short-circuit protection circuit, but this is just my guess. Any thoughts?

​Personally, I wouldn't worry about insanely silly minutiae. 99% snakeoil.

Hi edb, Sorry I didn't get a reply to you sooner. I haven't been home much lately.  I'll post the first few lines of a playlist as an example.  This is directly from my playlist "1991" opened with notepad.  I don't have any text preceding the music.  My Folder Structure is Music\Genre\A-Z\Artist\Album\Tracks.  When you browse the card, you should see your playlists on the same level as your top-level folder.
 
\Music\Rock Mp3\R\Roxette\Joyride\09 - (Do You Get) Excited.mp3
\Music\Rock Mp3\A\Adams, Bryan\So Far So Good\10 - (Everything I Do) I Do It For You.mp3
\Music\Rock Mp3\S\Squier, Billy\16 Strokes, The Best of Billy Squier\16 - (L.O.V.E.) Four Letter Word.mp3
\Music\Rock Mp3\O\Osbourne, Ozzy\1991 - No More Tears\10 - A.V.H..mp3
\Music\Rock Mp3\B\Bowie, David\2001 - All Saints\03 - Abdulmajid.mp3
\Music\Rock Mp3\U\U2\1991 - Achtung Baby\11 - Acrobat.mp3
 
One of the things I noticed the first time I tried a playlist was that some of my filenames were too long and so the player wouldn't recognize or play it.
My old naming structure was Artist - Album - Track No - Title.
I simplified that to Track No - Title
Now the playlist is playing with no problems.  I'm not sure what the character limit is on the filename.
 
Hope this helps.

Thanks Fra.
 
My playlist file has exactly the same format as yours, but I have APE files in it. I guess that should not make a difference. But I do have looong file names, that is probably the deal breaker.

Yeah, that was a tough call for me, but I really wanted the playlists.  I've renamed about 20,000 files so far.  Music Bee made it pretty easy though. You still have to rename them one by one, but you can do it from a pop out window and hit the next button as you go, rather than browsing through all of your file folders.  There may be other programs that do it better.
