Just received my fiio and the improvements that are going to be implemented on the E5 are EXACTLY the ones i'd hope they introduced, thumbs up for them!! They'll have a buyer on me.

I am looking forward to the '5' big time. It supposedly works well with Sansa players.

Last I heard (rumor), FiiO has almost finish the primary design and now in hardware development. Through I doubt we will see the E5 anytime soon (soon as in next few weeks), I do hope they can keep the new amp as affordable as the E3.

I'd be interested in one as well... I mailed FiiO about my E3 review, but never got a response.

I am sure FiiO already takes notice since I saw they linked your review in their forum as well.

A bit of news update for the E5.

James of FiiO told me they have plan for inviting 5~10 head-fi'ers for an early review of E5, No specific detail yet but those who had reviewed the E3 on earlier time will be on their preference list. This will most likely happen after FiiO becomes a MOT in the forum.

Now about the E5: The release date is scheduled to be before Christmas, still no specific time yet. The demo set is currently being tested, and is claimed to have 'overall improved SQ, especially on soundstage and clarity. Original bass enhancement has been kept, but is optional to accommodate different headphone'

My already-depleted wallet will be ready for the release of the E5, and so will my MDR-NC60's, the same noise-canceling cans I currently use with my E3.

Any ideas on what price range we should be expecting? I take it that the E5 will be several times the price of the E3.

I'd love to see some concept drawings of the E5. Should look beautiful with its small size and slimness.

No idea on the price yet since the hardware has not been finalized.

Too bad this isn't being released sooner. My Guard unit leaves next Friday for mobilization. Guess I'll have to wait.
