Of course! I have got wmport to USB cable. I just wanted to check AM3D amp section of Q5S stand alone as a balanced amp. Another use of it would be charging while listening. Because that option would free the USB port for charging.
I am already building cables for my Focal clear and HE1000 V2 with pentaconn balanced configurations. So it is easy to have TRRS to TRRS cable. (-:

Ahh right, I understand!

But why do you find it more difficult to use with Android OTG than iOS? You just plug the cable and it works. Use it with UAPP on any Android phone from the last 5 years an it works perfectly Hi-Res, DSD and all. Not iOS biased at all.

Its baby sibling Q1 Mark II was a nightmare with UAPP on my Note 9 with latest updates Android 9 Pie. Returned it.

I tested an q5s...and it's mind blowing...on my 660s....with lg v20. I cannot wait to buy it!

So don't wait! It is already available at AVstore

Did you have problems with other players too? Maybe it was an UAPP issue with that specific phone. The developers at UAPP are very active in pushing updates for various devices and they have an excellent customer support.

On some phones, OTG needs to be enabled by hand. You may also need to go to developer options and force it to output audio via USB.

I think that a mistake was made at the calculations...:

410+620x0.55=751 (your calculation of 741 is wrong)
410+620x0.35=627 = OK
410+620x0.75=875 = OK

In that case it could be any phone instead of the M11, and hooked up to the Q5 it would sound absolutely the same... But because he made a juicier double burger with the M11 / Q5 / AM3D he must justify it psychologically so it has to be the "best he ever heard"

Yep, bit since they already had the m11, why not? They basically got and m11 pro.

Lucked out yet again Someday.

Congrats to all winners.

The Q5 is not the the M11 without a screen. It's totally dependent on an Apple or Android source. It is absolutely more iOs biased.

As far as wiping the floor..I sincerely doubt you ever really listened to a R3. The Hiby R3 is leaps and bounds ahead of anything in its class based on its price point and feature set!

I know this and am not just sending a random comment, I owned all of them and find the Hiby R3 accells at doing it all. The SNR is basically non existent. The control over the output is more customizable than any other device I've ever owned. Balanced connection to my ATH-MSR7's is outstanding!!

So enjoy your M11 and ask yourself, where's the smartphone keypad? At least give up the wireless ac...jeez...

I owned an R3 for about 2 months, and every other small dap- cowon plenue d2, cayin n3, Sony a45, fiio m6, ap80 and the R3 was one of my least favorites for sound- not that it sounded bad it just lacked the clarity of say m0, or ap80. I know it has mseb but I'm talking about stock sound. The m11 is leagues above it in resolution, power and soundstage imo. It's still a nice little dap, it just wasn't my cup of tea.

And I'm not sure what you're trying to get at with the phone comments- I was referring to the audio output as far as q5 being like m11.

Anyways I sold my R3, but like I said if you enjoy it that's all that matters. Some people don't like fiio or m11, that doesn't diminish my enjoyment of it. These are just all personal views we're sharing, not absolutes.

Still no Q5S on the Amazon UK store. I've been so patient :cry_emoji:
