You won't be disappointed. What cans are you going to try with the E9 first (I am assuming from 3,000 posts you have more than one set.)?

On my Fiio e9 I can hear very quiet noise when adjustment volume and music is not playing. With music turn on volume adjustment is nice and smooth, no noise.

 

Nice work with e9 Fiio! I'm writing this becous  before buying fiio e9 I was worried about quality, consider comments other posts.

On Fiio e9i you can dock ipod but not e7. Fiio e7 dock is in Fiio e9. I hope it make sense.

From what I read FiiO does make these. They were also making kits that let you convert the e9 to a e9i but stopped because of how complicated the job was.

 

I am not saying that these are the real deal, but FiiO does make the e9i.

I really like the way my KeeS/Markl modded PRO900's sound and I want some buds/iem's that will sound like them...

 

Any suggestions?

The pro 900 I will be "getting" will not be modded.  However I did the kees mod on the Pro 750 and enjoyed it.  As for bud recommendations...I have multiple threads here on head fi for earbud reviews, you are bound to see them if you do an earbud search

Hi all! I currently have B&W mm-1 speakers and Denon D2000, I was planning to add an E9 amp into the setup. How would I connect everything together? Should I use the "headphone out" on the speaker to the "line in" on the E9?

The E9 should be plugged directly to your source. Putting speakers in the mix ends up double-amping the signal, thus degrading sound quality consequently.

So I've been trying to calculate the power output from the E9 into my LCD-2 and I'm getting two different numbers, depending on if I use the 1 W into 16 Ohm spec or the 80 mW into 600 Ohm spec.  Don't feel like typing out the formulas again so I'll link to where I asked feiao in their sponser thread: http://www.head-fi.org/forum/thread/518817/introduction-of-e9/60#post_7531330

 

He says to take into account a 10 Ohm resistor in the headphone out, but not being an engineer, not too sure how to do this and no response so far from feiao.  So can anyone else clue me in?  Also, does this mean that E9 has an output impedance of at least 10 Ohms?  Would be pretty high, no?

 

I asked nwavguy who says 320 mW into 50 Ohms is closer, but factoring in the 10 Ohm resistor explanation was either not mentioned or went over my head.  He said his measurements will be posted soon, so maybe I'll just wait till then.
