Detailed introduction on how to explore the functions of Q5!
It can outperform the competitor once the balanced ouput is in use, none of them being capable of offering a soundstage this wide. Virtually, you can connect almost anything and the Bluetooth transmission worked really well. You can even watch some movies with the Q5, the delay being reasonably low thanks to the strong Bluetooth chip embedded. On the go, it’s easier to connect and if you need the best quality, you still get USB-in.
The value right now of the Q5 is very strong. I think especially for those who want the amp card system but do not want to go flagship prices with the X7 Mark II. I do rate it better than the X5iii on pure sound quality alone so its a very attractive wired and wireless solution for those who want to hang onto their existing sources.
Judging by the rest, we were expecting audio quality and a sound signature from the Q5 like that of the X7 II. This would be a fine thing. We adored the well-rounded and lively audio from the X7 II, and we’d be getting that top-notch experience at half the price with the Q5.

We’ve reviewed a number of do-it-all audio devices in the past few years; our nerdy nature can’t help but be drawn to the versatility. Even in that company, the Q5 is an impressive device. Add to the usual list of inputs and outputs swappable power amp modules, dedicated power circuits, and Bluetooth streaming, and we think they’ve got something special here.
The FiiO Q5 DAC-Amp is designed as a super versatile, competitively priced Swiss army knife perfectionist flagship. And it deserves this status.
The Q5 delivers excellent sound quality in a durable and well thought out form factor. It is very user friendly in terms of DAC set-up, and simply plug and play use. It has very good power output in balanced mode with the AM3A, and being modular, you also have great power options with FiiO’s AM5 module.
The sound quality of Q5 is outstanding, or rather, for the price it is unbelievable. The sonic performance is exactly the same as that of FiiO X7mkii, as long as both are running the same AMP module.
The FiiO Q5 Flagship Bluetooth & DSD-Capable Portable DAC/Headphone Amplifier never faltered regardless of source or headphone and showed epic versatility well worth the modest price. While it would never replace a high-end DAP, it is a first rate choice for those who rather enhance their smart phone’s capabilities or just want a low cost portable desktop unit for use with a laptop or tablet.
It should also be noted that this isn’t just due to its sound, as the Q5 is impressively feature packed. Its wireless connectivity is genuinely compelling while Fiio’s implementation of the same swappable AMP modules as the X7 enhances its versatility (though at additional cost).
This nice-built gadget would offer you so many luxury possibilities like: Improve your phone as source; Eliminate the need to stack by using AptX Bluetooth (operate the wired Q5-headphone combo via App of your unleashed phone); Use it with your many other HiFi devices; Power high impedance headphones (maybe also using AM5 instead of the included AM3A module); Even improve already existing HiRes DAPs (like the X5 III), which are really hard to resist!
De data aceasta FiiO a incercat sa imbine calitatile audio de care trebuie sa fie capabil un flagship precum Q5 cu o usoara muzicalitate in care sufletul muzicii trebuie sa fie prezent. Le-a iesit cu brio aceasta imbinare si cred ca Q5 suna peste multe aparate ascultate la acest nivel de pret.
This time, FiiO has tried to combine the technical qualities that a flagship such as Q5 must be capable of with a slight musicality in which the soul of music must be present. I can say this merging was achieved and I think that the Q5 sounds better than many devices I have listened to at this price point.
---Pros--- Powerful Bass, good treble extensions without sibilance or harshness. Reasonable price. Tons of connectivity and options, custom leather case, good bluetooth stability and AAC, DSD APTX support. ---Cons--- None. But would love an EQ in the companion app.
Overall the Q5 is a very impressive device. Top notch build quality, very impressive sound quality. It is up there with the best portable DAC/amps available today.
This would be my two main listening devices for now, wait for the reviews to come that'll give you all of the specifications and comparisons with other devices.
To summerize: it's a really interesting device with a lot of connectivity options, a lot of potential features......
Что же представляет собой Q5? В первую очередь — достаточно серьезный мобильный ЦАП с двумя AK4490EN и полностью балансной схемой. За USB отвечает XMOS, обеспечивающий все новомодные плюшки, включая DSD256, попутно получена MFi-сертификация, обеспечивающая беспроблемную работу с iOS-устройствами. Не забыты и оптический/коаксиальный входы, если вдруг у вас завалялся какой-то источник для них. Идею с Wi-Fi пришлось отбросить (по словам FiiO, сильно шумел), но для любителей беспроводности предусмотрели Bluetooth 4.2 с aptX. В теории используемый CSR8670 умеет в Bluetooth 5.0, и FiiO даже предусмотрели возможность обновления прошивки беспроводного модуля, но я бы не стал рассчитывать на то, что подобное обновление обязательно увидит свет. Так что принимаем за данность то, что уже есть сейчас: 4.2 и aptX (ну и AAC для iOS).
FiiO Q5 wygląda niczym pozbawiony ekranu DAP w stylu X7 II. Konstrukcja jest zresztą zbliżona także dlatego, że oba urządzenia pozwalają na zastosowanie tych samych modułów wzmacniaczy. FiiO Q5 jest standardowo wyposażony w moduł AM3A jak FiiO X7 II.
เป็นไงกันบ้างครับ สำหรับ DAC-Amp ระดับเรือธงตัวใหม่ของ Fiio เรียกได้ว่ามีฟีเจอร์ทีน่าสนใจออกมาเพื่อเอาใจนักฟังเพลงมากทีเดียว โดยกำหนดการเปิดตัวของ Fiio Q5 นี่จะอยู่ช่วงเดือน พฤศจิกายน 2559 นี้เองครับ เรียกได้ใครที่กำลังมองหา DAC-Amp ตัวใหม่ก็อดทนรอกันอีกนิดนะครับ ไม่ถึงเดือนจะออกมาให้ลองเล่นกันแล้ว
เสียง FiiO Q5 สามารถทำให้คุณภาพเสียงดีขึ้นแบบรู้สึกได้ในทันที แ รายละเอียดเสียงดีขึ้นราวๆ 50% จากตอนแรก แนวที่ขับแล้วฟังสนุกเป็นแนวเน้นเบสเช่น Rock Alternetive Metal Hip-Hop EDM เป็นต้น เรียกได้ว่าเป็น DAC-Amp ที่ทำให้สัมผัสก่อน-หลังได้อย่างแท้จริง เหมาะนำมาเทสหูฟังหรือขับหูฟังที่ขับยากๆ ครับ
The circuitry inside it can handle audio up to 32 bit / 384 kHz, as well as handling DSD up to 256 standard. While those figures won’t mean much to all but the most geeky of all your heads, all you need to know is that the Q5 can handle very large audio files without breaking a sweat, meaning you get a significant uptick in quality.
Thanks Jude (Head-Fi) for having FiiO Q5/ F9 Series/ FH1 specially featured in the CanJam NYC Preview Video.
The Q5 can be used with Android phones, and it's one of the most complete models of its kind on the market in terms of compatibility. So you may regard this function as a bonus, and please kindly understand that we do have our concerns for not promoting the compatibility with Android phones.
Q5 vs X5 - More effortless, more focused, cleaner upper mids with less grain but more detail, more even in the midrange, deeper bass, more extended highs.
