1&2) I tagged my filenames using mp3tag with the auto filename tagging function. I use the track number with a leading zero and then the song title as the filename placeholder. It works fine while browsing songs in the album folder.

7) Really? I though the Calyx M has not been released yet, unless I misunderstood how and when did he get it? Is he happy with its sq and UI?

1 & 2) thanks i'll try it out.

7) yes my friend has the calyx M already. unfortunately he is not allowed to give any info on how and why he has it. he did say that its pretty impressive, but thats all he is allowed to say.

can you tell me more about 7?

if you play an album for now it goes by file and so if you want to play by album it will be mixed up. Just a a 1, 2, 3 etc if you want. I use perfect tunes to fix art and match names to files and to get rid of dupes

as i said, i am unable to obtain any more info on the calyx M. :frowning2:

Hi, JonathanCandel -

Keep in mind that micro-SD reliability can problematic, with faults and failures seemingly common with the micro-SDXC variety. Indeed, SanDisk recently acknowledged it had originally shipped defective SXDC cards; unfortunately, many are still on the market. I fell victim to this problem just the other day, when I ordered a 64 GB SanDisk card from Amazon. The card was kaput from the start. (Amazon refunded me immediately, no questions asked.) I then purchased another SanDisk micro-SDXC, this time from Staples. Thus far, it's performed well.

When you buy a micro-SDXC, you'll want to be sure the card is packed in its original retail packaging--avoid the so-called "Frustration-Free Packaging" that Amazon offers as an alternative. Also, I recommend using only regular retailers, especially those with brick-and-mortar locations. If the card is defective, you should be able to exchange it easily.

Best regards,
Brian

Thanks Brian! I will be carefull when buying them!

I just saw an unboxing video on the X5 and noticed that the USB cable is some sort of adapter to which you need to add another cable... I thought that I had read that you can charge the X5 via a supplied USB cable, which would be more than logical... Does someone have experience with charging this device?

For charging/USB DAC/storage, any ordinary micro USB cables will do. Maybe you're confused with the coaxial output? FIIO does include a 3.5mm-to-RCA adapter for that.
