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
Thank you for the reply, in answer to your questions;
1. I am not necessarily worried about the battery charging whilst connected to a laptop, I just don't want to be reducing it's life by overcharging it. Does the battery continue to charge once it has reached it's capacity or does it have memory?
2. I haven't and cannot see how, not that I am aware of what it is and what it does anyway (I haven't seen any reference to it in the user guide). My Fiio control panel only has: Status, Format, Buffer Settings and Info. It does however stat in the Buffer Settings that ASIO not active.
I did however manage to work out how to alter the sample rate by accessing the properties of the Q5s within the Sound Control Panel of the laptop. In the Advanced tab I could change the bit depth and sample rate, I just set it to it's maximum 32 bit 384000 Hz and everything on Amazon Music has now played at it's correct output.
This only works when it is connected via usb though. If connected via bluetooth the maximum rate is limited to 16 bit and 44100 Hz, should this be the case?
Any further advice would be appreciated.
Thanks
