That was a good new. I just ordered the E07K.

 

Thank you

hmm so the consensus is that the E07K is worth the 30USD over the E7?

Must be a US thing. Same price as the E7 in the UK.

Good question. Clieos would know as he has those two. It supports E09K in paper

Uk may soon follow. Final price is up to seller. This is good as people with a small budget can get E7 now.

The main difference are that the E17 still have S/PDIF input and AD8397 (E07k use a different opamp). My early RMAA test shows E07k to be quite excellent and worthy as an upgrade over the original E7.


Hi ClieOS, nice to see you here. IMO, E07K is really a nice product. Could you give a few comments on its amp performance?

 

I am wondering if this unit is capable of driving DT1350. UHA-4 is good driving IEM, but kinda weak when it comes to DT1350. So I am thinking of getting another amp for DT1350.

 

Thanks!

nice.

 

hmm. considering how the E17 was once on sale at 99. i'm thinking twice forking out 89 for E07K.

 

I suppose E07K < E17?

Fiio intends it to be that way. E17 recommended at $150 and E07K recommended at $100 or $90 so that users have choice

As far as I can remember, DT1350 isn't that difficult to drive that UHA-4 can't drive it. Plus, going from UHA-4 to E07k will be a downgrade in SQ.

Thank you. That's very helpful information. Could it be UHA-4's signature that the soundstage is confined?

That depends on what opamp is in the UHA-4 - I would expect OPA209 to have smaller soundstage than AD8610. Then again, I don't remember DT1350 to be particular specious sounding.
