Has anyone else tried to "listen" to the Balanced out of the X5iii while attempting to Charge? I get a loud buzzing, so I have to unplug the power. It doesn't happen when using the SE out or the Line-out.

Bumping a pretty old post.

My X5iii has started to buzz/hum on one side in both balanced and SE outputs while plugged in or while just battery operated. Anyone experience this or have any way to try and fix it?

Does anyone have any experience using a single 512gb card in the X5-iii? I can't use two 256s due to the way my externally created playlists were created and I'm not about to redo 80+ playlists.

Thanks.

that card is pretty new (and expensive) so not sure if anyone here has tried it yet, but i can tell you that my X5 handles two 400GB cards very well.

Hi.
I have my fiio for more than one year now and starts to encounter to problems:
I copy files on the device but sometimes there are not visible, as if the copy was not actually performed
Sometimes I copy an album on the x5, it is visible and I start to play it but after 90 seconds there is no sound anymore and when I browse the folder I don’t see the tracks anymore.... I have to reboot the x5 to see the files again but the same issue happen again

Seems I cannot enjoy this device after one year which is not acceptable..... has anyone an idea what is happening here and how to fix it ? Shall I re format my sd card ?

are you copying the file to SD card?
if yes, does this happen when you copy the file to the internal memory?
