Yes it is good , nothing wrong with it
I have reviewed long time ago for a Greek magazine and I think that is very good for the money.
Nice coherent and enjoyable sound and tons of power.

I will probably look into it then. The only issue is I have to buy extra lightning to usb cable to use with my iPhone but should not be a problem using with my Samsung tablet apart from the laptop. Let me see. Thanks for your suggestions!

You are welcome.

Just note that I am not sure if is compatible with Android.
I have only tested it with windows PC.

Sure okay. For now I think I will go with the magni and down the road get a Modi3+. I already have few dacs - the Fiio Q3, apple dongle and Sony a45 which can be used as a usb dac.

Is there any difference between the 2.5mm and 4.4mm balanced outputs in practice? According to the tech specs they should be the same. Anyone here did a listening A/B test to compare?

They sound exactly the same.
The 4.4mm though is more robust and has better contact and fit.

I got one for my birthday. Love it very much! Works like a charm with my iPhone.

However, when I use it with my Shanling Q1 it drains the Shanlings battery a lot, like 20% in 18 minutes. The charging switch is off. Both devices brand new.

Shanling suggests the Fiio is using power: https://www.head-fi.org/threads/sha...table-hi-fi-music-player.920927/post-16496510

What can I do?

Dear friend,

【RGB light status indication】

Status	ON(standby)	USB DAC	Line in	Low battery warning	Charging (OFF)	Charging (ON)
Light color	Blue	PCM≤48kHz:Blue; PCM> 48kHz:Yellow; DSD:Green	Blue	Red light flashes every 2s	Red light pulses;Constantly on when fully charged	Corresponding light pulses;Constantly on when fully charged

You could check the indicator status for confirming whether the Q3 is being charged? Or you could check whether the problem remains when connecting the Q3 to other device?

Best regards

@FiiO Does Q3 works with the micro USB cable CL06? I have an old Samsung S7, which uses micro USB port (it supports OTG).

Dear friend,

If your mobile phone support USB audio output, the connection could theoretically work. I tested the FiiO X53+Q3 using CL06 and the output works fine.

Best regards

You could try to use a cable where the + supply line is not connected.

I would love a Q3 mini with a form factor like the Paw S1.

@FiiO , I asked about USB DAC driver, and now I see the 5.22 beta version, and I download it running now,.
So far so good. Good job.
