Just ordered the FiiO E7 and having second thoughts

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 

As the title says im having second thought on my choice of protable amp/DAC. First of all im using HD-25 but am upgrading to HD650 at some point so need a fairly capable amp. The problem is after ordering them i found that FiiO is releasing the E17 next year and wondered is it worth the wait? also i was looking for the ibasso D-zero but cant find it anywhere to order ( in the UK ). So anyone have any thoughts whether i should wait or cancel the order?

My audio quality is usually FLAC. 
portable source is iphone 4.

I know that my iphone doesnt need it. But its my computer that suffers, especially that even with the HD-25s on full volume i can barely distinguish and everything sounds faint. 

 

Thank you.

The e17 will be quite a bit more expensive than the e7, but it will have a better dac and a better amp.

Well it sounds like you need an amp now, so why not enjoy the E7 for the moment and worry about upgrading when the E17, or something else, is released in the future? It's not as if the E7 is terribly expensive.

I heard E17 will be double the price of E7.

From what I was told it would be the price of the e7 plus the e11. As far as quality I was told it would have a better dad than the e10 with amp about like the e11
