Any time frame on when there will be a fix for the Windows drivers?

There's been no update in almost a year.

Dear friend,

Best regards

Sounds great, enough power as is with my HE400S and I'm waiting on some balanced cables to try too.

But audio cuts out on my iPhone even on IOS 11.3, which was suppossed to solve the issue. This happens even with Blutooth off, all app notifications off, etc.

Anyone else having this issue?

Dear friend,

Would the issue happen when using in the computer? The ios 11.3 you downloaded is the stable version as well?

Best regards

I'll test on my computer and get back to you. Yes, this is the stable version of the newest IOS.

Thanks!

For use with android tablet and iPhone 5 and not planning to go balanced, should I get the MkII over the original? The difference is still 30 :/

I'd say go for the Q1ii, it's a nicer shape with a better build and improvement in sound quality.


How do fiio q1 mk2 sound when compared to the original q1. Is there a huge improvement in the sound quality between mk2 and the original

There's a Headphonia review where he compared the 2, the Q1ii has a better sound.

Hi guys! My father wants a portable, light and small, amp/dac to join his old Fiio X3 2nd gen. Assuming he could only use the amp section, it's worth the purchase? Some other alternative below 200 €/$ ?

Thank you in advance and have a great day!

Fiio A5? It's just a amp :)

+1

I'd say A5 is his best option too, or wait for the Q3.

Taking a look to A5 size, seems a little big for his like. Thank you!

I recently purchased a FiiO Q1 mkII and NewFantasia cable from Amazon. My hope was to take advantage of the Q1 mkII's increased power from its balanced-out... but use my current (3.5mm connector) headphones. The cable's description specified that it was compatible with the balanced-out of the FIIO X5III, so I expected it to work in my case.

Unfortunately, the cable did not produce proper sound. Compared to my double-sided 3.5mm cable connected to the SE-out of the Q1, the NewFantasia cable produced a much narrower sound-stage. Could this be an issue with the cable's design or construction? Or could it be that the cable not compatible with the Q1 mkII's pin-out configuration?

FiiO, can you confirm that the Q1 mkII processes each channel independently, with it's own + & - (not a shared ground) via the balanced-out? Also, is the Q1 mkII's balanced pin-out configuration (tip to base) R- R+ L+ L- ? Is this design unique to the Q1 mkII... or the same as the X5 mkIII?

Finally, should this KK Cable adapter from Amazon would serve my purpose? One verified buyer confirmed that it did "work well" with his Q1 mkII.
