Now all we need is for the UTWS5 to support LDAC => perfect modules.

Speaking of which, if anyone wanna trade their UTWS3 for Qudelix 5k, do let me know. Trying to get an additional one for my brother.

Just saw them on Amazon which is where I would have bought them if they had stock at the time instead of waiting a month with aliexpress.

Does this mean we have no way to predict approximate time it might be even available?
This is pushing it, but just wondering if UTWS5 is in the work
I know UTWS3 is fairly new but given how great it is, I can't help but looking forward to the next implementation.

UTWS5 is hard at work in development

Please please please make the connectors on the UTWS5 work on recessed connectors like the new Sennheiser, etc.!

Ended up ordering from fiio.eu to the UK, as I wasn't getting any specifics on a date from the UK distributors (or @FiiO on here directly).

Ordered 7th May, dispatched 8th May (shipped from Bulgaria), arrived to me in the UK 17th May. Glad I went that route rather than waiting for APAC shipping times. No doubt now all the UK distributors will have loads of stock as of today...

Slapped the FA7s on them, paired up with my phone, used the FiiO control app to set volume, then switched over to the X5 III, joyous

Did a quick comparative listen, not a long session, much "better" (subjective I know). Basically, for me, the Shure TW1s not having an independent amp in unit made them really wanting. Obviously this is all based on a very quick listen, but the Shure TW1s are booked in for return now in anycase.

Oh... the check.fiio.com site isn't working correctly. Captcha incorrect, you get a warning; captcha correct, nothing more happens.

Really like the concept of the UTWS3 and it sounds great ... was hoping it was my perfect solution to wireless IEM's .... only downside for me personally is the case isn't quite large enough to accomodate my custom tips without leaving the lid open
Only reason i'm not keeping it -- real shame

Sorry about that. What's the model name of your IEM? We will also report to the tech team about that.

Just do what @gorman did - problem solved, no?

Problem solved. Aesthetically this could have been done much better. But it works and I sanded down all sharp edges.

They're actually Fiio FH3's but i have custom molded silicone tips on them so they're pretty snug in the case and put pressure on them
As you can see it makes the IEM pretty long

I will bite if theres LDAC support?

 

[ClarenceKyle]

Has anyone tried them with an iPhone? I did that today and wow did it sound terrible with my Westones, even though I was listening to FLAC. Still sounds good with my DAP set for AptX. Could only guess that the iPhone was not using AAC but using SBC, the sound was so far off, extremely congested.

We'll need Sony to develop a new version of LDAC that supports TWS mode first.

Upcoming Hiby WH2 TWS is already LDAC certified. Should be no problem squeezing into UTWS5 if its all about LDAC licensing fee
