Only when its locked then it's safe to pull out the output during playback because its locked to whichever output you set either 3.5mm or 2.5mm. The other output will not work.

Makes sense.

I ask because yesterday I was switching between from a 2.5mm to 3.5mm cable (audio output was unlocked).

I was certain I had stopped playback however when I plugged in the 3.5mm music was already playing.

Hope I haven't done any damage.

For my understanding, how does the Output Lock act as a failsafe for when the cable is pulled out accidentally during playback?

@dh0licious , just have to be more careful in future. I seldom use the lock function cause it's a hassle when you want to change the output but i always make sure nothing is playing before I unplug.

i don't think this is true.

Like I said 'from my undestanding'. You are free to do whatever you desire on your unit.

Hi, we have a good news to share with you A limited quantity of ES100 MK1 is available now at www.earstudio.store at $69.99.
Thank you always for your inputs and discussions!!

I would guess that most forum members have more than four unique earphones.

Is it within the realm of possibility to give us an option to sacrifice some of the preset EQ settings, so that we can store more than four custom profiles ?

That would be cool

did a search and see that you can save a custom eq setting, but can you save a bunch? is there a limit? On my v60 I create different eq profiles for my earphones.

oh, nm.... just say that you can save 4 profiles. Anyone know if the btr5 can do more?

FYI- not sure if anything has changed, but the last time I looked at the BTR5, EQ didn't work when using LDAC if you need both. It does work on the ES100.

If you can wait, the Qudelix 5K is supposed to start shipping in a few weeks so you should hopefully see some reviews/comparisons soon (preorders are open)

do you know offhand if the Qudelix 5k will allow more than 4 saved custom eq profiles?

I haven't connected my es100 directly to my phone (LG G8) as I connect via bluetooth/ldac and think it sounds great.

But I understand that it CAN connect directly via USB with a cable like this...

Though, as I said, I haven't tested this myself...
