Q:Why does the X5 get a bit hot in operation?
A:The X5 utilizes an SoC with high clock speed, a separate DAC, and (also separately) a high
power headphone amplifier and independent analog volume control in the amplification
stage, thus dissipating way more power than consumer DAPs typically performing
computation, DAC and amplification all on the SoC. Apart from outputting more power to
your headphones, a lot of this power is also dissipated as heat, thus causing the X5 to heat
up slightly in operation; but this does not endanger the X5 or the listener in any way.
G. FAQ on the X5—connection with other audio equipment
Q:How to connect the X5’s line out to other audio equipment?
A:The X5’s line out outputs an unamplified signal to e.g. amplifiers, receivers, headphone
amplifiers, car audio inputs, etc. The fact that it’s an “unamplified signal” can be
misleading however. The line level signal of the X5 is of a higher voltage than the headphone
out at all but the highest volumes and can damage headphones if you connect them directly
to the line out. Please remember to set the output mode (System Settings->Multifunctional
outputs) to line out as otherwise coaxial digital output would be amplified as noise by
equipment expecting line input.
Q: Why does the X5 not show up as a storage device when I connect it to my computer?
A: Please check that the X5 is set to “Storage” USB mode (System Settings->USB mode)
rather than DAC mode.
Q: How to utilize the X5’s coaxial digital output?
A:
1. Set the X5’s multifunctional output to “Coax out” mode.
2. Use the provided 3.5mm coaxial adapter cable to obtain a standard RCA coaxial output port
and connect to the coaxial input of your S/PDIF coaxial digital-compatible receiving device
using a standard coaxial RCA cable.
Q: Why does my HT receiver never play the first ten seconds of music from my X5?
A: If the HT receiver is not explicitly set to receive audio from the coaxial port, it takes
approximately ten seconds to detect that audio is not coming in through the HDMI port and
switch to the coaxial port. In this case, please set the HT receivers audio input to Coaxial.
Q: Why doesn’t the computer recognize the X5 as a DAC or storage device when I
switch from Storage to DAC mode or vice versa?
A: Please disconnect the X5 from the computer, switch between Storage and DAC modes
before reconnecting the X5 to the computer for the switch to take effect.
