Product Information

I’ll do two paragraphs in the sound description. The first one will be standard-length, and the next will be shorter, describing the xDuoo XD-05 Plus when it works only as a DAC, enjoy! I decided not to do a separate paragraph for the Amplifier function because it sounds very similar to the XD-05 as a DAC/AMP. Further sound tweaking can be achieved through the FiiO Control app with the fully customizable equalizer and the six different low pass filters.

FiiO Q5s TC (Type-C) - Reviews | Headphone Reviews and

So today, we are going to review the FiiO Q5S TC, the third iteration of FiiO’s flagship DAC/AMP The FiiO 2020 DAC range It looks the part, is specified perfectly and is built to last. If you can live with its rather hands-around-the-throat approach to dynamics, it’s well worth considering. As is the case with all the inherently balanced designs of FiiO (and not only) like the Q3 or the M11PRO while the single ended out is already good enough it is the balanced that it is exceptional and of the utmost quality.The sound details organization is amazing, very cohesive, and smooth for daylong listening without any fatigue. Stand Out Features To better the performance for each mode further, the Signature has three digital filters for each: the bit-perfect, minimum phase, and the standard mode filters.

DAC-AMP FiiO Q5s มินิรีวิว DAC-AMP FiiO Q5s

The improved performance results from the combined efforts of the ESS ES9038Q2M DAC chip, a PIC32MX274 microcontroller, and a 64-bit digital volume controller. xDuoo XD-05 Plus + iBasso SR-2 (250 USD + 500 USD) – With SR-2, I was once again surprised by the bass! It is so nice and natural, with excellent reach and depth. I always wanted to give SR-2 a bit of punch, and XD-05 Plus helped a lot with that, and even took me by the hand to show me what SR-2 can do. It transformed a natural sounding headphone, to a basshead one, without ever distorting the sound, and all while having excellent detail. FiiO Q5s + HIFIMAN Sundara–Sundara is what I used the most in testing many sources, not because it is necessarily the best, but a lot of people heard it, or HE400, He400i, He4XX, and other releases that are part of the same series. Hifiman Deva is slowly going to replace Sundara, thanks to a brilliant design and sound, so the Video to that will be fun. But before we get too much ahead of ourselves, the sound with Q5s is wide, clean and punchy. There’s a rich midrange, and the treble, which is usually a bit sharp and hollow on sundara, is now richer, smoother, wetter and more natural. The bass is also clean, although if you want a bit more impact, you should engage the Bass Boost of Q5s. There’s pretty much enough driving power behind Q5s for Sundara, so don’t worry, despite there being options with more power, FiiO put enough power in their Q5s.
