I'd like a comparison as well. Pity FiiO released it too soon with lots of issues and only an IEM amp module. Why one card slot as well. I know cards are getting bigger, but the X5 will always have twice the capacity. We all don't want to stream!
I've just got a new old stock X5 (1st Gen) and with a Fiio E12A Shure SRH1540 headphones, I can't tell the difference between it and the X5ii I used to have before I upgraded to the Questyle QP1R.
Do you think the QP1R's wheel is as good as the ipod classics'?
ROFLMAO - sorry, the QP1R wheel is the source of all evil. Either you have to wet your fingers or you have to apply
some ugly piece of plastic to make it a bit usable.
But it i said last firmware has improved it. Also during CanJam Singapore I was told that in future there
will be some plastic included in the package.
Yea that and I heard that it had some problems with the wireless connectivity I think. Like getting interference/noise when using wifi. Do you think the QP1R's wheel is as good as the ipod classics'?
I have the Fiio X7 and have had zero issue with it.
I believe having wifi restricted it two one card hence we have this split with non wifi with two cards.
Amp 2 non available in UK yet so waiting. With my Hifiman HE1000 I have to currently use with my Vorzuge amp. Sounds great.
With my QP1R I don't need the ext amp.
Software and operating the X7 beats the Questyle every which way.
I keep the QP1R because it sounds so good.
I see. Do you feel the x7 bests the QP1R in sound quality by alot or just a bit? Could you please compare the two quickly like their strengths/weakness and their sound sigs? Thanks
I don't think the X7 bests the QP1R I think using the Vorzuge amp helps the X7 get close.
X7 has great soundstage and clarity. QP1R is more dynamic and has the edge overall. But the QP1R won't let me delete folders on the fly whilst the X7 UI is far more sophisticated.
I find the wheel a bit slippery, but the 1.05 firmware has made the accuracy much better.
