I want to use the UTWS5 MMCX with the 64 Audio U12t.

Which adapter should i get? The L-shaped (bent) or the straight adapter?

PS: If i get the UTWS5 2-Pin, then i can't close lid of the UTWS5 box?

I use this one with my UTWS5 and it allows the box to be closed perfectly

@FiiO , would you, please, clarify the situation? The thing is, I'm among those UTWS5 users having IEM+tip combination preventing to close case lid completely. On the other hand, I don't bother as far as the case is just on the table. So, the question: will not-completely closed lid affect charging or any other logic? Or, in other words, is there some switch controlling complete lid closing?

@FiiO My left side stopped charging, what can I do?

Have tried cleaning the pins contacts with IPA but no dice

I only had the fiio adapters for a week. They had one pair of SE846 attached once. For a couple of days they worked fine. I first started noticing a loud pop/crackle noise coming out of the right one. So loud it was painful. After that the sound started cutting out altogether. If I pushed the hook at the connector with my finger it would come back on. If I moved my finger it would go off. I swopped the right earbud onto the left hook and it worked fine. They’ve gone back to the seller for replacement.

Dear amf.123,

Sorry about that. Hope the issue would not happen again for you.

Best regards

Dear anli,

Not closing the case could not charge the ear plugs. But you could put a magnet in the button of the charging case in order to get the charging work in this case.

Dear Lobaba,

Sorry about that. You could try to clear the pairing to check again. If the issue remains, please try to contact the seller or support@fiio.com with the receipt attached.

Best regards

When I put both into casing, left charging
indicator did not light up after case closed. Clearing of pairing did not help either

Can you buy or will you be able to buy a replacement case for these in the future just incase it fails or breaks.

Well, I have not said about "not closing". My comment is about "not-completely closed". That is a lid is almost closed, but there is still a small gap (say about 4-5 mm) between the lid edge and the case.

In fact my experiments resulted in conclusion such small gap doesn't prevent hooks charging.

Would say TinHiFi T4 or (with adapters) Aria, Starfield, S12.

S12 or Olina for sure.

S12 is regularly on sale for 130-140.
With Olina I'd highly recommend getting a Tanchjim Tanya to do the filter mod.

I hesitantly ended up pulling the trigger on the S12’s and some adaptors.

Goddamn! Those are amazing for the price range.
Thank you guys for helping me out, now I’m getting my moneys worth out of the UTWS5’s!

the UTWS 5 did not disappoint (or it did...) plugged my Blessing 2, paired at APTX HD, played for 10 seconds and then electrical noise.

already started return process.

Not sure you know but the UTWS5 don't support AptX HD.

sorry, ATPX Adaptive.

Sorry to hear that. Did you try using the FiiO control app? You can adjust some things there, and also update firmware. Might help?

Made a quick review of the utws5:

https://www.head-fi.org/showcase/fiio-utws5.25657/review/28642/

Overall, exceeded expectations for me. And sounds nice subjectively. Not dry sounding at all despite being a Bluetooth solution and just aptx codecs.
