UAC1 mode for Switch, love to see it. Hope to see this on Amir's test bench soon, Fiio products can be hit or miss in getting the kind of SINAD we know is possible from the form factors they release in.

They have published measurements, including the SINAD.
Looks good to me, seems like the perfect (pricy) AIO package.

Also i'd really like FiiO to send stuff to Amir for reviewing, would add a lot more credibility.

Should have made it a bit bigger if necessary but added a battery, bluetooth, and PEQ

That would be their BTR7

I am thinking more along the lines of an upgraded Qudelix 5k. BTR7 is large enough that there's no reason it should really not be able to function as a full standalone DAP as well

I've gone ahead and ordered it, should be getting it in a week or so.
FiiO provided measurements look good enough, and there's a low chance someone else will actually measure it in a review i guess.

Hi there,
I have a KA5.
Unfortunately I experience a tiny clicking noise every 20 seconds when I use it with a Samsung S21 Ultra and iem's.
Has anyone made the same experience?
Glad for any help.
