I'm using 3M dual lock (the version that is removable). Works like a charm and strong! Easily attach and detach E18 from Samsung S3 phone.
Just curious why you're using the E12 instead of the amp in X5? Isn't the X5 amp better and using their new neutral sound signature.
The amp in the X5 is very good for my IEM's but I need to have more power for my HD800,T1,880,M50 phones than what the X5 amp will output... plus when you mate the E12 to the X5 you
not only get lots more power you also get the great bass boost and cross feed options that the X5 does not have alone.... I'm betting that Fiio puts the E12 power into the X7 when it comes out.
The HD600s (despite being 300 ohm) are not a hard can to drive at all actually. The X5 by itself handles them more than sufficiently.
I pre-ordered the X5 and after reading those bunch of comments on this thread, I'm thinking about buying an E12 for it.
I'm just really not sure if I would need it or really benefit from it. I'm new in this and like some people said, sorry for my wallet entering here
Funnily enough i was thinking of adding a Centrance hi fi m8 to my x5 which should land this week i already have an E12 so maybe this will do but i cant helf wondering like Seskoi on the above tread do you really need it. Probably not with Sennhesiser momentums but surely for HD 600s as these can be a hard can to drive.
about the build in EQ , just talk with our engineer, a solution as below:
all the EQ mode can be customed in the new firmware. it means you can change the EQ setting and them save it to what every you need for rock, classic ...
will it a better solution ?
Another, more minor niggle: the screen cuts off the bottom eighth, I'd say, of all my album art. It'd be nice if, for square images, the player would fit them into the available space with black bars on the sides.
This is nice, but in additional adding "reset EQ to default" will be even nicer!
Which firmware are you running?
Gapless has been perfect for me, running v1.23 beta
I am playing 1.20 so I will have to check how to update to 1.23 beta...
twister had an idea, i just sticked silicon cover to e12 with double-sided tape and now it's possible to easy remove e12 when needed; made ic myself. and you need thin tape,
thick kind doesn't stick to silicon well.
