My video about the FiiO Q5S is live now!

Not sure if you guys notice on the instructions card. It states the input priority as BT>USB=OPTICAL=COAXIAL=LINE IN. So meaning BT connection is preferred than any other input connection? That is why some feel BT sounds better the wired connection? But for myself, wired connection i still find it much better than BT but too bad all my usb cable will have back charging....

New to this.

So have a question.

I already have a FiiO M11 to be used with Tin Hifi P1 & Audiosense T800 as the IEms of choice. Headphones Beyerdynamic Amiron Home.

What benefits if any would adding a Q5s into the mix?

I have Q5s (AM3E, AM3D) and M11. In direct comparison, the M11 has worse bass control, less detail, and less resolution. IMHO

What about AM3E vs. AM3D?

AM3D is playing more expressive and technically compared with AM3E. Better controlled deep bass. But the difference is not very big. On the other hand AM3E because of a small shroud seems softer.

Service support FIIO told me that don't see the problem with changing channels with DSD playback on firmware version 0.32. But sent me firmware version 0.37 and software for updates. As update write about the result.

Прошивка для версии 0.37 полностью решает проблему замены каналов при воспроизведении DSD: Beyersmile:

Firmware for version 0.37 completely solves the problem of replacing channels when playing DSD

Oh, that's good!
How was the fw update procedure? I remember for old Q5 was a bit... tricky.

The update took about 30 seconds =)

Hi
On BT connection when outdoors riding my bike, the Q5s has some conncetion interruptions when using Ldac.

P.s. Am selling mine. 1 week old brand new with all original package and content. From Israel. pm me if interested.
I held back on the M11 for the Q5S.
But I think te M11 will serve me a little better.
Hope M11 sound as good as Q5S..

FIIO warned me that if the progress stops for a long time you need to press "exit" and start again
