FiiO Q5s

This seems to sound just as good as anything else fire has produced, and so when we consider the price tag, we can really start to see just how much b...

Love that it sticks to the back of my iPhone 13 mini and that it has the same colour. Until now I was using a Fiio Q5s for away from the desk listening and this thing sounds similar if not the same.

I started on a simple quest... all I wanted to do was play HD audio on my home stereo. I upgraded to Amazon HD and learned that my phone, bluetooth, airplay, car were not capable of playing beyond 24-bit/48 kHZ. I ended up looking at DAC's. I'm not using this for headphones as i don't want to lug ar...

I know sound demos are not IRL accurate but man I want to rip out my ears when using my fiio q5s tosling - a90 - neumann ndh20. I hope something happens that will not tell me it has bloated bass. I like Koss KPH30i, NDH20 and Sony MDR m1st but definitely not THIS.

I own the Q5 and bought Q5s. Loved Q5. Did not like Q5s. I use my headphone amp for so many hours, one battery is not enough for my long workday (over 10 hours). So I decided to buy a second amp. It seems that engineers at Fiio decided to cut many corners or take some parts out, with Q5s. New versio...

The imaging is immensely improved on as is the sound stage. Accompanied with a Fiio Q5 I have never been more so happy when putting on a pair of cans such as these. Lows sound punchy and amazing. Mids are crisp as all heck.

A noticeable and mathematical improvement over apples solution. When using my on ears with apples adapter i had to set the volume to 70% to hear it. With this i set it to about 40 -50% and it sounds twice as loud and better. I regretted buying my on ear headphones before I tried them with this. Upda...

But about half the time my music listening the past couple of months is slightly worn vinyl > cheap sony PS-LX250H > fiio q5s > 6xx. It's clearly and very noticeably not as hifi as my good digital setup. It's not even as exciting as my digital setup for rock music, but I enjoy my analog setup a lot for rock music.

Update: I brought the rating down. After about a year of use & living with the device it consistently exhibits an odd behavior. When the battery drops below 50% it frequently disconnects from whichever device it is connected to via bluetooth. Yes there is USB, COX, Line, & tosslink, but its main fea...

My set-up: I'm currently running them from a Fiio Q5s and a custom 4.4 balanced cable and it sounds fantastic. Performance-Price: I got them on sale as well for about 500cad and it was a steal. I would still pay full price for these headphones, maybe even more. Comfort: Very comfortable fit, you'll actually notice that the middle part is gone when you put them on but once you wear other headphones you'll notice that not having it is actually better.
