[United Test] Fiiro X3 II lossless music player experience

Thanks to IT168's test guest & Yi Xun, to give this flying proud new X3 lossless music player experience!

Experienced for some time, some experience, and report to you.

Fiio X3 II Advantages:

1 Feature-rich, with asynchronous USB DAC function, the interface includes headphone output, but also includes coaxial / line output interface.

2 The overall sound quality is good, the low frequency is full, the IF is full, and the high frequency is not sharp. After the sound is rendered and optimized by the player, ordinary headphones can be used to obtain a better listening effect, which is suitable for more ordinary consumers.

3 All-metal body, more detailed workmanship.

4 more abundant accessories. Including extra foils and extra personality protection.

Fiio X3 Second Generation Disadvantages:

1 Appearance is better compared to the X3 generation. However, with the highly homogenized appearance of X1, people feel nothing new.

2 The display screen resolution is low, the display effect is general, and the viewing angle is general.

3 "Portable" can only be said to be relative to "national brick".

Fiio X3 II General Review:

The brand-new X3 has completely changed compared to the first-generation X3, and has undergone major changes in appearance and interior. The new X3 is feature-rich and supports native DSD, asynchronous USB DAC, etc. It also supports coaxial/line output, and is highly playable. The new X3 sound quality is good, the operation is easy to use, and the endurance performance makes me satisfied.

Suggest:

It is recommended that Feiao be equipped with ear plugs on the player. For example, you can carry a new flat earbud EM3. Of course, don't increase!

The product experience includes product unpacking experience, product design, UI operation, actual listening, and coaxial/line output experience.

First, the product is out of the box

Feiao X3's box design is generous, red and black color is full of dynamic. Only the eye-catching X3 on the box, unlike the previous packaging is X3K. At the same time, X3 and X1 are highly similar in terms of product packaging renderings. However, this mold is much better than a generation of X3.

The back of the box is the main product features and functions, as well as company information and so on. It seems that the new X3 has good playability. It uses the CS4398 DAC chip, supports asynchronous USB DACs, and supports hard-to-get native DSDs. All the information on the box is printed in Chinese and English. At the same time, there are Facebook's QR code. . It seems that flying proud of the emphasis on foreign markets. The specific model of this player is: FX3221.

There is a black box inside the outer box. The English logo of "FIIO" is printed on the top. In-stream ads: Thanks again @it168 tester.

The top cover of the box is equipped with a soft sponge. A small card, which is a detailed manual, shows the functions of each button in a graphical manner. Similarly, all the instructions are in Chinese and English.

The real machine is protected by a plastic bag.

There are also some accessories placed under the player.

Includes additional display film, coaxial adapter cable, 1m data cable/charging cable, and product description.

There are also three personalized stickers.

The all-new X3 uses a full-metal body with a good texture. The buttons look jerky, but the actual feel is much better than expected. The operating wheel of the dial knob has a sense of passage and good damping. It looks like a vinyl record.

The MICRO USB interface is set at the bottom and no dust cap is configured. And, two small visible screws fix the body. The brushed metal shell has a strong texture and a good touch.

The top is a 3.5mm standard headphone jack, and the other is a line/coaxial output interface for easy access to other external devices.

The upper left part is the power button and the volume plus/minus button. Press the key to achieve blind operation, suitable for night operation.

The bottom right corner of the fuselage is equipped with a TF card slot. The new X3 needs to play music by reading the TF card. It seems to support the 128G TF card, it is still necessary to meet DSD tracks with more than 100 M at a time. The expansion of the OTG method seems to be protracted. Obvious restrictions are imposed on mobile devices. It is still possible to use the device in still and indoor conditions.

The back laser marks the English LOGO with flying proud, as well as product models, manufacturers and other information. Made in China! ! ! Domestic products should be self-reliant and we hope FIIO will continue to improve.

The boot animation, first of all wellcome, then FIIO X3.

The X3 supports multiple languages. Such as Simplified, Traditional Chinese, English, Japanese, Korean and other languages. It can be seen from many details that Feiao is taking the international route.

The proud system UI, this UI is not beautiful, but it is simple and practical, easy to use, only the icon to identify, without unnecessary redundant statements.

The FiiO X3 II uses a combination of iconic turntables and physical buttons for operation, and the operating experience has improved significantly compared to the previous generation X3. Through actual experience, this circular motion is full of passages and is easier to grasp.

Second, listening experience

Listening to music is a very subjective experience. Everyone often jokingly calls it "metology."

Here, I have selected a number of songs that I am familiar with, including Zhao Peng’s Evening in the Outskirts of Moscow, Tsai Chin’s Ferry, Huang Wei’s “Cry Sand,” and Wang Luobin. “I don’t want to wipe off the mud on my shoes. 》, Eight Eyes, The Girl of Dabancheng, Sun Lu, The Red Tears, etc. Briefly report to you about your sense of hearing.

(Limited to conditions) The selected earbud is a hundred-dollar ordinary earphone. This is also the level of consumption of most ordinary consumers.

Track 1: Zhao Peng, "The Evening on the Outskirts of Moscow"

Zhao Peng’s interpretation of the evening “The evening outside Moscow” was very artistic under the performance of X3. Bass and instruments have a sense of strength in the low-frequency part, and they have a deep dive and a sense of quantity.

Track 2: Tsai Chin "The Ferry"

Tsai Chin is a singer who plays time. In the song “Riverside”, under the interpretation of Tsai Chin and X3, the opening drums were flexible and flexible. They were able to walk and play freely. The sound of the instrument played later was very real. The vocals are so delicate that they linger around.

Track 3: Huang Xi "Cry Sand"

The song "Crying Sand" was performed by many singers. The only thing that I feel is the best taste of Huang Qi. The opening girl's voice was exquisite and real in the interpretation of the Flying Pride X3, and her presence was very good. The singer's teeth crashed and his mouth water stirred up to make it happen.

Track 4: The Eight Eyes of the Girl in Daban City

The performance of the song “ The Girl in Dabancheng ” under the X3's performance has a strong sense of three-dimensionality, a clear sense of place, a clear hierarchy, and a clear interpretation of the harmony part, full of emotions. Full of vocals.

Track 5: Wang Luobing "I don't want to wipe off the mud on my shoes"

This is a pure music. The whole song is ethereal and beautiful, and the high-frequency part is compact and soft. It also feels like the X3 can live in a large volume.

Listening summary: The flying proud X3 can play a large number of audio formats, powerful analytical power, heavy bass, volume sense, full IF, high-frequency clarity, not harsh.


Third, coaxial / line output experience

The FiiO X3 is equipped with a coaxial/line output interface that can be connected to external devices for high playability.

I connected to an Edifier's Bookshelf 2.0 speaker and still played several familiar tunes. The moment the sound was released from the speaker unit, it was captured by the flying A-X3's sound performance. The low-frequency sound was full, and the medium and high frequencies were full and real. The FiiO X3 can be used as a nice front end to experience great music.

Experience summary:

Flying proud new X3 is a good quality comprehensive lossless player, its workmanship is good, detail processing is in place, sound performance is more flattering, consumers use ordinary earbuds, you can experience good music effects. Moreover, its relatively compact design, acceptable weight, and portable features. The only drawback is the screen display in general. I don't worry about it. Overall, this is a more cost-effective lossless music player.
