Thanks to the both of you guys. With the custom themes, I just wanted to be able to changes things more often.

I just got my X3. Everything is going good. I just had a question regarding FW. Is it necessary to have an empty microsd X3 formatted card in order to install the FW or can you just have it on a X3 formatted card with other tunes? Thanks

Nice interconnect. who puts that out?

Leaning heavily on X3 and cayin c5.

Thanks for the reply. I was just thinking in terms that I knew I am eventually going to want an amp and I was just trying to find a pretty versatile pair. I know the x3 works well on its own and I like the looks of the x1. I know the x1 needs some oomph to get it close to the x3. Just babbling...

thanks for the reply. looks like this might be the combo I shoot for.

so you use the Fiio X3 with the Cayin C5? how does that sound? I amdebating on that combo or the X1 and an amp of some sort (either the e11k or the C5). Decisions, decisions.   thanks in advance.

I am thinking I want an X3. I also like the looks and reviews of the x1. My question is would I need an additional amp with the x3, like I was thinking I would do with the X1(e11k). I am a current clip+ user with all FLAC files. I am looking for an upgrade in the souce, but do not want to break...

very nice!

how does it sound?

From the last couple posts, the x1 and the c5 could be a good combo? I am considering the c5 over the e11k for the x1, am looking for some advice if this is a good idea or not? It sounds that whatever the c5 is paired with, it sounds good. Thanks in advance.

i know it has been hashed, but i am coming from a clip+ and a samsung media player.   I have all my music in FLAC already. I do have shure 215's, vsonic vsd1's, Audio technica ath50's, and aiai tma-1. I want to take the next step. I like this combo of the X1 and e11k. I have read reviews that...

thanks!!

do we know what brand of interconnect this is? looks really smooth with this setup. thanks in advance!

what is the catch? Why is it called promo?
