Hi guys. I got the update and there's an option that I swear I never seen before, it's called "distortion compensation". Unfortunately there isn't any info about what this makes. Anyone knows anything about it?
Thanks in advance.

PD. I was able to find it on the Qudelix forum.
The Qudelix staff said:
"It's a built-in feature in ESS DAC. With some ESS DAC parameter optimization, we can enhance the linearity by a little margin"

So I let it turned on :)

I am trying to find the perfect EQ settings for my Sennheiser 58x but the qudelix 5k is only 10 band eq and most i've seen online besides oratorys are more than that. does anyone have a good eq where the vocals don't sound super muddy ?

Hey guys, after updating to the latest firmware, my Qudelix powers on by itself and is trying to connect via Bluetooth, so the blue button is flashing.
What I do is, after powering off the Qudelix from the App on my Android phone, I plug it in to my laptop to charge. After a few minutes, it powers on by itself and connects to the phone. I power it off again via the App and disable Bluetooth on my phone. After a few minutes the blue button starts flashing again. Like it is attempting to connect.

Why is this happening? I am powering it off from the App on my phone. I have never encountered this behavior. Anyone else having this?

PS: If I shut it down by pressing the blue button on the device, this does not happen. It stays off. Is this how it is supposed to work now? Before the update, I could completely shut it down from the App.

Im not sure if any of you guys have seen this, so ill leave it here just in case :)
This is the 5K connected to a windows 10 machine with alternative a2dp driver that allows SBC bitpool increase.
For the time being if the bitpool is set at 250(1414kbps), a2dp wont connect, you need to set it back to default(53) before trying to connect the 5K, and increase afterwards. Should be addressed in the next 5K firmware.

I've been enjoying the 5K for some time now and decided to get the QX-Over IEMs to see what the QX-Over feature was about. Wow, for the low price of admission (plus shipping) I'm really liking the QX-Over IEMs with Oratory1990 Auto-EQ Preset.

So the update for the app and device itself are up on the iOS App Store now. I updated my 5K and half my EQ presets are gone, which would have been nice to know about first, so I could have at least took a screenshot of them and then re-input them again. So that’s kind of inconvenient.

I put in the sensitivity of my K371 and it’s telling me that I’m listening much louder than I am. Probably by at least a good 10-15dB. So it seems that this isn’t accurate.

Same issue with the loudness. It seems to be quite a bit odd in any of the headphones I have tried. Although I didn’t lose my presets so that is nice.
