That is exactly the kind of thing I was hoping someone would say. I would love for there to be a way for FiiO to make a product competitive with the MoJo SQ-wise. While Chord may come from a different market perspective and design philosophy than FiiO, the simple truth is that Chord is still bringing down the cost of entry to its product line drastically with the MoJo, at a price point that isn't too unreasonable. Hell, FiiO's own X7 is more expensive than the MoJo, showing that these two segments can overlap. And that's why FiiO should strive to equal or best the MoJo with the Q5.

Exist another little problem with FPGA, I don't know why but but every FPGA need a different code to do the same thing, the code works depending of the models and brands. Two FPGA of the same brand can't be code in the same way to do the same task,that's why just a few person's really get into it.

sorry we have not start the pcb layout yet because we are waiting the result of the MFi licence . we hope the Q5 can support iDevice and there are news about the iP7 will remove the headphone jack.

Keeping my fingers crossed the Apple grants you the license
 
Any idea when you will find out if you got it or not?

Hi stilleh,
 
Q5 is still not ready now , but we will try our best to release it into market in this year.

@JamesFiiO When the Q5 is released, you can expect a purchase from me!

Out of wonder, is the Q5 going to come bundled with an amp module like the X7?

Yep, Westerborn,Q5 can share the same modules with X7.

hello everyone, I am FiiO Demond.
The Q5 design in progress. But we want to make ID a little better.
Here, I have prepared a new design, The new ID has added a small display, what do you like better.
 
PS, Q5 will add a USB interface, used to support iPhone and iPad.

For me, I have to say I love the look of the B2. Without question, this is the best one. I am looking forward to this DAC/AMP combo. Thanks for the update, Demond.

How many volume steps will the Q5 have? Please make it 256 steps with 0.5 dB per step.

 

[demond]

the volume will display on the screen, I think it should be able to do more of the steps.
even to set the volume of the steps of the series...

I love these designs. Great job fiio! B2 Kinda looks like a dude wearing a tie and suit.. Very classy

 

[stilleh]

I want the B2 looks but I like hardware switches for bass boost and gain :/
