## Description

Fiio K5 PRO Desktop Headphone Amplifier & DAC

Review: Estaba escéptico respecto al uso de un DAC externo, pero viví años en el error. Definitivamente este dispositivo mejora notablemente la reproducción de mis CD, su desempeño fue igual de bueno utilizando como transporte de CD un reproductor BluRay Sony, lo utilicé también con un dvd player marca Harman kardon, y tres diferentes C D player (Yamaha y Onkyo).
Review: I recommend it for just about anyone that is looking for a solid midrange budget dac/amp. Build quality feels good. The knob has a really good feel to it. You know that nice level of resistance so it doesn't get accidently spun but not to spungy to annoy you. The switches have a nice tactile feel to them so it's easy to tell which setting they are on and when they click between positions. Comes with all the cables (power and usb) you need along with headphone connector adaptor So you should be set if your 2.5 or 3.5. It also looks pretty clean. Easy to tuck away but not an eyesore on your desk if it's in the open. It also pushes my 150 ohm cans to perfection so I believe them when they say it can drive up to 300s. I have been fooled by other dac/amps in the past but that is not the case here. It drives what it says. Very clean sound. I do recommend getting the actually drivers from FiiO's website to get the best out of them on your PC though. It won't be as clean without them. So remember to do that if that is important to you. But if you just plug it in windows will detect it and you will have sound if you don't feel like messing with it (cannot confirm with an apple). But really does it all pretty well. Music, movies, and gaming are all satisfied to level you expect for the product. I know you will see a few cheaper ones and I would recommend you pass them up for this one. Its great. I believe to really get better you are going to have to almost double your budget and start to enter the realm of entry professional level equipment.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Would this would be an upgrade from the creative sound blasterx g6?**
A: That depends, the G6 is a clean sounding dac/amp, surprisingly good for a "gamer" oriented device, people think creative, gamer type device and think its junk without trying it, its actually very good. Its has a high quality dac and amp. If you're using the k5 pro or g6 for gaming, the g6 wins. The k5 has no mic input so that is a major issue especially on console, pain on PC. Also the G6 can easily drive headphones up to 300 ohm, i mean really push em hard. For music both are good, the k5 pro has more power so if youre only using it for music and you have 600 ohm headphones Then k5 pro all the way. I have both. I was using my k5 daily until I got my schiit hel, now i use the hel as its much simpler to keep it hooked to my PC for gaming and music. My G6 is hooked to my ps4. The difference in sound quality isnt big at all, and software for the g6 is really good, you can do so much with it and tweak the sound to your liking. With the k5 you're stuck with no software, you cant save different sound profiles to it. Even if creative SB stops support for G6, we still have the current software which is good and theres been zero need to update it. Unless you have high ohm cans, you will likely be disappointed going G6 to k5. If its just music or you don't need a mic, k5 pro is very good

**Q: What cables doni need to connect this to my PC?**
A: To connect to your PC you only need the included USB-B cable (looks like a printer cable). You will also obviously need a power cable (also included).

**Q: Will this improve the quality of music streamed from Spotify? I currently have my sound card setting to 24bit 192khz**
A: No.  Music streamed from Spotify will always be compressed.  To really notice this Fiio DAC you will need a FLAC audio file and a good pair of headphones.

**Q: Do I need drivers for this to work properly?**
A: If you have Windows 10, your computer will automatically download and install driver once you plug in the K5 Pro (and turn it on).  However, I think this will limit to 24 bit and 192K.  To get 32 bit and 768K, you will need to down load Fiio's own driver.  Google "Fiio's Support" to find the driver.

Pour ce prix là, j'espérais bien un produit de qualité. Résultat : pas déçu, au contraire. Le produit est bien fini, semble solide tout en étant assez léger, ne glisse pas sur des surfaces en bois, le contour qui change de couleur en fonction de la source d'entrée est bienvenue ! Niveau connectique, on peut se régaler : il y a de tout ! En plus, beaucoup de câbles sont livrés avec : un USB B - USB A, pour connecter aux PC compatibles, et profiter ainsi du DSD. Aussi compris : un jack 3.5 vers 6.35, alimentation aux normes européennes, d'autres patins anti-glisse, c'est très sympa de leur part. Maintenant on approche du plus important, la qualité sonore et l'amplification. J'utilise cet AMP de deux manières différentes : avec un DAP, le shanling m2s branché avec un câble USB C vers USB B, ou avec le PC. - Résultat : avec mon DAP pas vraiment de différence de qualité d'écoute, mais la partie ampli fait très bien le job (je vais revenir dessus), et sur le PC, ça change la vie lors de visionnage de films ou d'animés de qualités. - J'utilise pour l'instant cet ampli avec un unique casque : le beyer DT 880 Edition (ver. 600 ohms), assez difficile à driver en temps normal, mais ici rien qu'avec le réglage d'ampli le plus bas et la molette à fond, le niveau sonore est très raisonnable, et si je monte au niveau 2, c'est largement assez fort pour quasiment toutes les écoutes, et au 3ème niveau seulement sur les rares morceaux qui sont pas assez forts de base, ça reste peu fréquent de monter jusque là. Et malgré ça je ne rencontre pas ou très très peu de distorsion (ça dépend du fichier sonore, en mp3 ça va forcément grésiller atteint un niveau sonore, dès le flac 16 bits, ça devient plus dur de rencontrer de la distorsion, et à partir du flac 24 bits et DSD impossible à moins de mettre un niveau sonore pas supportable par nos oreilles si sensibles. Donc pour résumer le produit fait totalement le job ! Je connaissais déjà la marque Fiio mais ce produit rst digne de confiance en tout cas pour l'instant. Soyez sûr que j'éditerai ce commentaire si jamais il arrivait un quelconque soucis !
