Hello,

I got the email from you that your Q5s is working again now?

Best regards

I wrote an email. Because of the not working ldac equalizer. but didn't get a message back. was it maybe the wrong address ?

I love this device sounds really great. But please fix the equalizer :frowning2:

I haven't been able to get the equaliser in the Bluetooth device controller working either.
You get it to work on all other codecs beside ldac

Hi all, if anyone is interested in a comparison between the Q5S and the BTR5 you can read it on my website here: https://www.modioaudio.co.uk/blog/fiio-btr5-its-spunky - please let me know what you think!

2 days into a 1 month lockdown and I'm thinking about watching some blu-rays on my Sony blu-ray player that has coax or rca out. What is the best way to connect to my Q5s for audio quality? Is it easier just to connect to the tv bluetooth or try to connect directly to the player? I've never really thought about it or looked at the included connection accessories. Would there be any advantage to a direct connection or bluetooth when it comes to the audio soundtrack used? Is there any difference in how either bluetooth through the tv or the audio output via a direct connection is handled by the Q5s that may sound better?

Anyone have used sensitive IEMs (andromeda / Solaris ) on the Q5s? How is the hiss on them? Thanks guys!

Hello everybody

I have just purchased a Q5s along with a set of Denon AH-D7200's partly because my soundbar inexplicably doesn't have any form of headphone output but also to listen to a lot of music (Amazon Music HD). I have a couple of questions regarding the Q5s;

1) When connected to a laptop via USB will the unit prevent overcharging of the battery and are all four charge indicators meant to stay on permanently when it is fully topped up? And;

2) When using Amazon Music HD the highest quality I can get it play at is 24 bit / 44.1 kHz which is both below what the Q5s is capable of and what some of the music on the service is rated at. Am I just being limited by the laptop and/or the USB output on it or is there something that I should be doing differently?

Firmware update has been done to v0.39. No obvious settings on either Amazon or Fiio control panel. Internet speed is around 50mbps so presumably nothing to do with that?

Many thanks

Dear user,

1. The Q5s has charge on/off option. You could set this via FiiO Music APP if you don't want to charge the Q5s while connecting to the PC. When the Q5s is fully charged, the 4 side indicator will light blue.
2. Have you set the output mode to ASIO and play a music file with high sample rate?

Best regards
