FiiO X7 | DXD | DSD | 384K/64B | ESS9018+ Android | WiFi | Bluetooth | 4 AMP modules | Balanced Out |

I'm a happy owner of both the x7 and the x5iii and yes Fiio listen to their uses on the threads and by personnal message unlike some other DAP makers.

I agree, FiiO devs may screw up at times, but I'd be damned if I said they didn't listen to feedback. Those guys work like a well oiled machine.
Still wish they would give an option to unlock the bootloader though, in a similar fashion to how HTC does it. Heh. Custom Roms and all...

With the Oppo PM-3 headphones I would like to use the balanced output with the X7 and AM3 amp module. Does anyone know what cables and adapter do I need for this.
 
 
Thanks

You can't use an adapter you need a new balanced headphone cable for the PM-3.

You'll need to use the balanced out port on the bottom right. As for cables, watch out. The audio hobby has attracted a lot of crooks who try to sell cables for hundreds of Dollars that do NOTHING more than ones you could make yourself fot less than 10 and a pile of parts from Monoprice. Beware.

How would I go about making these cables.

Yes it does, if this information is correct:
 
"... 2.5mm TRRS termination for use with any device with a 2.5mm balanced output such as the Astell&Kern, Onkyo, and Pioneer players"
 
FiiO X7 AM3 TRRS is the same as A&K

Dear ddtdave,

In what condition will the freezing happens as you mentioned? You were playing the music or running some other APP at the same time?
Can your RM1 collect your phones successfully? What will appear in the X7 when you try to search the RM1?

Best regards

Hi Fiio,
The freezing ocurrs when the screen goes to sleep...No further tracks will play so I currently have screen always on to counter it.
RM1 can find other things to connect but hasn't worked with X7 since upgrading from FW 2

 

[ddtdave]

Just in pure music mode and using line out through my car.

Just a quick newbie question, is it OK and safe to use the fast chargers of Samsung? The ones that come with the S7 Edge?

One more thing, do you guys top up battery without letting it drain way passed 20%?

Thanks.

It shouldn't really matter much. I charge it whenever. usually leave it on charge unless i'm going somewhere.

Dear Fiio,
 
The X7 after numerous new versions of the firmware still has the following issues (for me)
 
1. if line out or digital out are used then the screen has to be continuously on otherwise the tracks stop after the end of each one and the on/off button has toi be pressed in order to continue - this has beeen commented before in this thread and is irritating as the screen uses (much) bettery.
 
2. no replygain or even a mention of when it might arrive
 
Otherwise i think this is an excellent player and is very flexible as it can be used as a stand-alone player, with an external amp and as a transport and the sq is pretty perfect for me.
