SD, dual DACs, and balanced audio in your pocket

The xDuoo X5 is built for audiophiles who want flexibility without compromising sound quality. Whether you’re streaming DSD256 files, fine-tuning your sound with a 10-band EQ, or using it as a USB DAC, this player delivers at every turn. Dual Cirrus DAC chips provide a fully-balanced audio architecture, reducing noise and improving dynamics, while support for microSD cards up to 1TB ensures your entire library is always within reach. From wired to wireless, desktop to on-the-go, the X5 adapts to how you listen. 

Supports HD lossless songs

Native DSD256, PCM up to 32-bit/384kHz—the xDuoo X5 delivers uncompromising fidelity. Its dual CS43131 DACs deliver the nuance of your favorite tracks, preserving microdynamics and spatial accuracy with an impressively low noise floor.

Dial in your sound with a 10-band EQ

Not every song is mastered the same way. Not every headphone sounds the same. The X5’s 10-band EQ lets you fine-tune your music with a gain control range of ±12dB. 

Dual DAC chips with balanced architecture

The X5 is built around two CS43131 DAC chips in a fully-balanced configuration. This means lower distortion, better dynamics, and a cleaner, more detailed signal. It’s an audiophile-grade approach that ensures your music sounds its best.

Balanced and unbalanced headphone outputs

Whether you’re using standard 3.5mm headphones or running balanced via the 4.4mm output, the X5 delivers. The 4.4mm balanced output offers higher signal-to-noise ratio, better dynamic range, and an output power of 270mW—enough to drive a variety of headphones with ease.

Two-way Bluetooth 4.2

Stream music from your phone to the X5, or use it as a Bluetooth decoder to send high-quality LDAC audio to your headphones or speakers

USB DAC function

Connect the X5 to your computer via USB, and it instantly becomes a high-fidelity DAC. Whether you’re listening to music, gaming, or watching movies, it upgrades your computer’s audio output for a cleaner, richer sound.

Car-play mode

Designed for effortless integration with your car’s audio system, the X5 powers on the moment you plug it into your car’s USB port and shuts down automatically when you turn off the ignition. 

Voice-activated song search

Hunting through your music library is a thing of the past. Connect the X5 to WiFi, and you can search for songs using voice commands. 

Touchscreen interface

A 3.5-inch IPS touchscreen makes navigation simple and intuitive. Tap, swipe, and scroll through your library with ease—no tiny buttons or clunky menus.
