So it'd be quite remiss of me not to try to answer your questions.

Unfortunately I don't know much at the moment...
1. This needs to be fixed one way or another. Either we put this out in the next firmware update, or we put a big asterisk after the VU meter visualization in the ads remarking loud and clear that it's only a planned feature in a coming firmware update :mad:
2. Hmm, what's wrong with pressing the pause button?
3. It appears to be more a question of "if" than "when" at the moment.
4. Back when all the category listings were single level, I'd suggested the ability to freely combine category filters as you suggest. The developers chose to hard-code the artists->albums hierarchy instead, perhaps because the early X players did not have processing power for the freeform suggestion. Now the X7 has come out, with all the processing power one can ask for, but the FiiO Music app appears to have taken some cues from the previous X player UI. I can certainly field your suggestion to the developers now and see if they can do it in the future--but it seems we're still partly in a bugfixing phase.

5. (insert something like the answer to (1) here...)
6. I'm sure this is possible... :tongue_smile:
And yes--you really should choose the gain of the amp to suit the earphones you're using. Something like the AM2 module, with the same gain but more power backing it, may be regarded as an "IEM+" module, able to drive the same IEMs the AM1 module can drive, but with more power for bigger things. But the high power module, with a high gain, may well be noisier than the AM1 for IEMs. It depends on the final implementation.
