How's the X7 handling 200 GB MSD? I saw a SanDisk for just under 80 bucks shipped but if I'm better off sticking with 128 plz let me know your experience.

  Someone please look at this cable and let me know if it will work with the AM3 balanced. https://www.audeze.com/products/accessories/el-8-balanced-cable-astell-kern

 
It should [?]. 
 
Someone who actually tried that specific cable should tell if the connectors are ordered to work with the plug, I'm unsure if this exact cable uses the exact standard. 
 
From the pictures, it should work, but I;m still waiting on AM3 to arrive in Romania. Can only say that by the looks of it, it should work. 

Audeze confirmed that the cable does in fact work with the AM3. That really makes me happy

This might be an unpopular opinion, but I'm glad they aren't giving us a timeframe. The last thing I want is FiiO running around like crazy at the last minute to stick to it, and to release something sub par.

A 5.0 release will take time, I rather they get it done perfectly rather than soon.

And sure, they could always push that timeframe back.. But we all know this community, and we all know how much hats FiiO would cop as a result.

Be patient lads. 5.0 is coming.

can i ask do the amp modules have different sound signatures and if yes can you summarize to us your findings
 
also how does the balanced compare to the single ended on am3, i just want to know to familiarize myself more

This is a link for Brookos reviews of the AM2,3 and 5. http://www.head-fi.org/t/762394/brookos-reviews-past-future

I know that Brooko's reviews have already been cited here, but I also have reviews of all amp modules and compared them against each other: http://www.head-fi.org/users/398973/reviews
 
(Look at the AM2, AM3, and AM5 reviews.)
 
As for comparing the single-ended to balanced on AM3, I go more in-depth in my AM3 review. But in short - (at least for full-sized headphones, not sure about IEMs since I don't have balanced IEMs) you get much better separation (and thus layering and imaging), slightly larger soundstage, and better bass and treble with balanced as opposed to single-ended.

Hi, how do you get rid of the "bubblegum" music that plays when you turn your unit on? It's quite annoying!
