I guess those TOTL DAPs (including X7) take so much time to design and build that when ETA approaches the comercial Depts. tend to press "a bit too much" for things to happen, and they happen indeed before time....at the cost of stability and sometimes compromising what was (well) done before. I'm not referring specifically to any brand.
Also it seems once they've nailed the sound quality everything else falls by the wayside..........just look at any other DAP's thread and they're all absolutely littered with annoying bugs.
Fiio I actually think is way better than the others as far as functionality
I'm planning on ordering the AM3 module for use with my Angie II universals, however I do have two slight concerns about it. I'm sure there are other members using the same combination, so I'd like to hear experiences from other users before purchasing.
Seeing that the Angie II is a sensitive IEM, I'm worried that it may hiss when combined with the AM3 using the balanced cable. Has anybody had hiss when using this combination?
Since the AM3 is a powerful amplifier module for a portable player, how much usable volume range will I have left when running the Angie II in balanced mode? For reference, using AM1 I tend to listen to the Angie II on about 20 - 35 volume, which is quite a low volume already.

The only hiss I hear is the one from the recordings background, it goes from virtually black to some audible hiss in a few tracks, which I would agree AM3 doesn't forgive much...
I got X7 with AM1, then AM2 and finally AM3 - IMHO, Angie II is a fantastic match to X7 with AM3 balanced, dynamics, layering, its all there. Take in consideration I'm no more a 20 year old boy (51
), if I want it to play reasonably loud I have to dial X7 volume do 45-50 with AM3 (low gain), 55-60 with AM1. I would say you'll have a damned pretty good range of volume with AM3 but then where is the problem? I might be afraid of not having volume on my AMP, not of having in excess... with Angie II you're confortable.
I don't know it's just me but the only bug free DAP i've tried is the iPod............Questyle, Fiio, A&K, Lotoo, it doesn't matter.....the more you pay the more critical the bugs.
because only apple seems to care about user experience.
after working with corebooted/librebooted thinkpads (f*k you lenovo)+linux i start to consider to get new macbook (hello, apple) just because it will save me some time and everything will be (kind of) bug-less. atleast at the cover and won't be noticeable to users until they dig in to the core.

I (and others) had that problem when I erased my 200gb card on X7, aparentely due to the format of file system (FAT32).
Try ejecting your card and format it in PC windows using ExFat format ... I'm pretty confident you'll see the problem solved.
