Darn, just got this delivered from China 4 days ago. I should have waited and saved $20. Oh well. But I get to let those interested know how good this is. My FiiO Q1 Mark2 is no longer being used. It’s in its box and it‘s going to be sold. The Topping NX4 DSD runs circles around it even with it only being single ended. The NX4 has extremely good output, enough to drive my HD650’s and HE4xx’s to ear bleeding levels. For general listening no gain increase is needed, but when you want to Rock just flick the switch and it kicks butt. Supposedly in high gain it starts to have higher distortion levels above 80% volume, but even if that is so at 80% it pushes both headphones to serious levels. Bass boost is nice, not overwhelming at all. I use it about 90% of the time. As for form factor it’s a little thicker than the FiiO Q1 mk2 but length and width wise it sits nicely behind my FiiO X7 Mk2 DAP. the NX4 also works well with my pc Where the Q1 didn’t. So what are you waiting for just pull the trigger.

hsdrggrHi, I see you are using fiio X7 mk2, how you make it work with NX4DSD ?? I have X5 3rd gen. It seems not working when I plug to NX4DSD... It works great connect to Note 8, Win 10 HE or even iOS (with aftermarket cable)...

foktaThe cable in the photo that I use is an OFC HI Speed Data DAC Cable specifically made to connect Android phones to FiiO Q1, Q1 Mark2 and Q5. It works perfectly on my FiiO X7 Mk2. I’m not sure if it’s different than a normal microusb to microusb DAC cable. I sell custom headphone cables and DAC cables for FIIO, Sony WM, & Chord Mojo. If you want to buy this cable from me it’s $15.00 shipped to anywhere in USA. Just email me at hsdrggr@gmail.com and I can get with you. Just FYI, There is one issue with the FiiO X7 Mk2, which may be the same with yours, is that any app that streams music like Tidal or Spotify will not output digitally through the microusb. Tidal and Spotify will only output analog through line out. It’s really one thing that bugs me about that DAP. So I have switched to using my HiBy R3 for portable use. I now only use the FiiO to feed my Bottlehead Crack Tube Amp At home.

hsdrggrThank you for the reply and the information... Can't be used with Spotify?!!! that's a major bummer... I used X5iii for streaming... no wonder there no articel or thread in the google mention about this... its a very good information...

foktaSpotify works with my X7 Mk2. it just won’t output through the microusb. It outputs through the line out jack, the 2.5mm and 3.5mm headphone jacks only.

foktaYes, I agree with you, bummer. FiiO really screwed up by not letting steamed music be output through the digital output microUSB port. If I would have known I would have never purchased the X7 Mk2.
