Q:Why is the X5 sometimes sluggish in responding?
A:
1.High bitrate lossless tracks, particularly 192k/24bit APEs, take more system
resources to decode, possibly causing slowdowns in the player UI. You may
convert such APEs to FLACs or uncompressed WAVs using programs such as
foobar2000 on the computer first to make it easier on the player. The sound
quality will be the same.
2.Placing too many songs on the X5 may also contribute to slowdowns. Please
limit the number of songs on the X5’s TF cards where possible.
3.Placing non-music related files on X5’s TF cards, such as videos and pictures,
may cause the X5 to slow down while sifting through them looking for music
files. It is recommended to dedicate TF cards on the X5 to music.
4.Playing high bitrate files from slow TF cards may cause stuttering. Class 6 or
above genuine microSD cards are recommended.
5.Unpredictable ordering of files, such as placing several .ape and .cue files in the
same directory. The following directory structure is recommended: create
separate folders for albums by the same artist, and open subfolders within each
artist folder to hold single albums in separate subfolders.
6.A mixture of music files of several different codecs and sample rates may also
slow down the player. It is recommended to place files of different codecs and
sample rates into separate folders and to play files of the same type in sequence
from these folders, to prevent the X5 from having to switch between different
decoders frequently.
Q:Why does the X5 get a bit hot in operation?
A:The X5 utilizes an SoC with dual cores and high clock speed, a separate DAC,
and (also separately) a high power headphone amplifier, 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; this does not endanger the X5 or the listener in
any way.
