Between that and my having the extra battery and external charger from Micca Store, I won't have to worry about running out of juice now....lol. And for that matter, I do still have the E6....although I usually only pair that with the Clip Zip. It looks silly next to the Classic.

It was the first thing I checked on arrival. Have a play around with it, you can notice a difference, mostly in how much volume you use. I used low power full time, mostly because the IEM's really didn't need it. It might suit those JVC better though.
It's all trial and error. For example ...on high power mode you may be able to get away with low gain, and visa versa. There's a graph somewhere that explains how many mW each settings puts out. Low power / high gain etc etc...
I can't find it though.post #936 of 104910/14/12 at 4:36am- 5,358 Posts. Joined 5/2010

I can't find it though.I've always used the low gain, and even now with the low voltage setting, I still can. I'm actually wondering how much of a difference there really is between the low and high voltage settings, because right now, low voltage/low gain, in a quiet room, the E11 volume is on an indicated 2....and I think that's pretty much where I always was. Granted, these JVC's are very efficient....32 ohm, 106db/1mW.

It's a very subtle difference.
Total win if you can live on low power!

Does anyone know if the Miles Davis Tribute IEMs have good synergy with the Fiio E11? Or perhaps JDS Labs cMoyBB v2.03

Hi guys,
Just wanted to add my experience with E11 and AKG K701

Lots of ppl says that K701s are for classical music and they do not rock, well they do not rock alone, but with E11 Bass Boost and EQ - 2 they got great bass. It's like completely different headphones, music stays clear and just basses&guitars comes alive.
Definitely can recommend this amp. I can finally enjoy music like Dope, Five Finger Death Punch, In Flames and so on, on these headphones
