Review: Best DAC/Amp for the price range! - 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.
Review: Best Dac/Amp Combo under 150$ - I was quite surprised that the sound reproduced through this unit was very clean and had such clarities. Sound signature is very neutral and transparent with good sound stage. This unit also has a respectable and powerful amp section too. Maybe on par with Schiit Magni or JDS Atom in terms of power. You could crank up the volume all the way and no audible hiss was present. This can drive pretty much any headphones out there with ease maybe except for a couple very hard to drive planar headphones. This is absolutely a bang for the buck and in my opinion better than Topping dx3 or Aune XS1 as a Dac/Amp combo. One thing I did not like about this unit was the volume control. Depends on songs I listened to, I could hear a very little static sound when adjusting the volume. I don't hear it when there is no music in the background, but especially when there is a quiet song playing, the static sound was audible. If you are looking for the one solution desktop Dac/Amp combo with outstanding performance that does not hurt your wallet, this is it. I highly recommend this.

## 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.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Suits my needs well
*by A***R on February 1, 2020*

I consider myself a beginner audiophile. I just started getting into high-end audio equipment. This is my first purchase of a DAC/AMP. I do not do any professional audio work so I didn't really need anything too fancy. I mainly bought this to use for casual music listening with my high-end 80-ohm Beyerdynamic headphones. I currently have this hooked up to my desktop computer using an optical SPDIF cable. I do notice an improvement in sound quality with this amp compared to just having the headphones plugged directly into my PC. With the headphones connected directly connected to my PC they sounded somewhat muffled, but not with this amp. - The separation is better (sounds "wider") - It brings out more detail (I am able to hear sounds in the music that I never heard before). - The sound seems crisper and cleaner and there is noticeably less distortion - Better bass, more punch - headphones sound more equalized and better balanced. - louder sound The only thing is that this does not seem to make much of a difference in sound when using the analog line in ports. Although I do love the flexibility of having all of the options available. It seems like the best way to benefit from this device is to use the SPDIF or USB input since they are digital (although I have not tested using USB yet). The only thing is that it cannot be powered from USB without using the AC power supply like other DACs, but that is not really that big of a deal to me since I will not be using this on the go. I will have it sitting on top of my PC tower all the time. This DAC isn't really made for portable use anyway due to its size. I would say I made a good choice with this purchase as it seems to suit my needs.
