Just seemed like you were dismissing the K5 as an unnecessary product.

Oh no, it definitely fulfills a need. I had the previous dock, but my needs are different. I have no doubt it's a great product. I am very pleased at the land scape of quality audio products available to us as opposed to when I was growing up. Furthermore, the cost seems to be much less than before and the choices quite plentiful.

When using with the X7 mkii, is there a setting that lets the X7 turn on when you power up the K5? Right now, my X7 will power down with the K5, but only goes to the charging screen when I turn the K5 on.

Exact Same Problem with X5 3rd Gen...

@FiiO Please look into this issue.

Isn't this the intended behavior as K5 shuts down?

They shut down together fine. However, it doesn't turn on with the K5 when docked. You have to turn the K5 on, then turn on the X7 seperately.

Oh, I see... This is something that I wasn't fully aware of, hope FiiO can look into it

Yeah, I've posted it several places and sent them a direct message...haven't heard anything back .

The update from Fiio:

"No, currently the X7 could not turn on when you power up the K5. You would need to power on the X7 by holding the power button."

Very disappointing.

Dear friend,

The feature you mentioned is not a designed feature for the X7MKII. So there is no reserved pins in the control chip for checking the dock status as well. Hope you could understand.

Best regards

Dear friend,

If you would like to achieve this feature for X5III, you may turn on the in-vehicle mode. The X5 3rd gen could start/off with the K5 when you connect or disconnect the power apply for K5.

Best regards

Not Working at all,
When I turn on the Vehicle Mode for the first time it worked for one time, after that it still the same. Tried all possible combination Remove From The K5 / Complete Power Down K5 / Turn On Power with X5-3 on the Top etc. Also, there is option 'Car Charging' under Vehicle Mode - By Default it is Enabled - Also did the above combination by Disable & Enable it.

The result is the same - K5 can't Turn On the Power of X5-3.

Dear friend,

Please confirm when connecting and disconnecting the K5 to the power apply, the X5III could not power on/off at the same time? Not mean by turning on the K5 via the volume button. If this still fails to meet your need, we are sorry that the feature you prefer is not supported currently.

Best regards

Hi kdub, here is the image for your reference :

Where can we buy this type of cable? Is it common and does Fiio have for sale ?

 

[kdub]

Yes. Fiio never said it was a Headphone out.

So finally getting a balanced amp. Question is does the K5 get bypassed completely when connecting from the K5 rear 3.5mm balance output to external amp XLR input? Or is signals decided from dac getting amplified by K5 and also external amp?
