Is there a significant difference with an easy to drive IEM? If u use the E07K from a pc and a 16ohm iem like RHA Ma750 or Re-400 is it an upgrade over the iPhone4? Is the Fiio much better (mainly as a dac)? Worth to buy for home use? /pls dont describe the difference between a phone and a...

Hey guys,   Really new to this kinda stuff and I've been searching for days with no success. I have an iMac that I run all my music off of and I wanted a desktop amp, so I bought a Fiio e09k. I'm running Sennheiser HD598's. My question is; Is there anyway to run the e09k through the iMac...

Hello, new Head-fier here and just getting into all these audio info. So I recently bought Sennheiser HD518s and a Fiio E07K amp and I LOVE the music coming out of it. However, I do want more bass. I've searched through the forums + google and everyone says the HD558s and HD598s has a lot...

based on my limited budget ive come up with the m50 + e07k or the dj1 pro + e11.... what would you choose? or do you have a better suggestion??

First, I apologize for being extremely new to the audiophile world.  I own a pair of Audiotechnica ATH-A900 and looking to get a nice open back set.  After reading many reviews and what I'm looking at in price, the HE-400 seems like the ideal candidate.  Having said that, will I need an external...

Just wondering what peoples opinions on this are, especially in cases where higher gain isn't needed ie. low impedance cans. The conventional wisdom seems to say that it is better to use  as little gain as possible, stick to the volume controls, and keeping your source/s high (example: Foobar at...

What is the smallest most effective portable amp for under or around 80 bucks, gonna be using it with the ue 6000 and a rockboxed ipod 5.5 30gb

Hi   I got $90 refund from amazon because of a FiiO E7 with defective OLED. And now that prices lowered I was going to buy a FiiO E7K. But I found out that there are some USB DACs with microphone in. And since I just use my E7 with my laptop, which also has a crappy microphone, I'm...

So as the title said, i would like a good amp that very boost the bass and all those things (but mainly the bass, very important, i want a lot of bass... a lot) but whos cheap (like under 70$, yeah 70$ max) and that i can use it like many hours before charging it up.   Thank you very much...

 Forgive me for being new at this. I was wondering if the Fiios E11 would do a good job powering my UE TripleFi 10's and my Hippo VB's? I also wondered if they would power my Beyer DT-880 (250ohm). I understand that the Beyers require a lot of power. I did not know this when I purchased them but...

Hello,   After spending a month on head-fi i finally ordered a IEM (GR07 BE). It is currently used with 2 players:   -The first one is my macbook pro: The signal to hum ratio on this is lower then the chance of winning the lotery, so i want to buy a amp + dac. -I also use them with my...

Ok so I just purchased the Ultrasone HFI 2400 for my in home and on the road/travel use. I haven't gotten a chance to use them as I am currently waiting for them to be shipped. 99% of my music is EDM. house, electro, minimal, and mostly uplifting/vocal trance. I believe I have made the right...

So my E7 came in today. I excitedly connected it with the ipod dock cable to my Iphone 3gs and began to turn it up, and up and up and at 60 it stopped and was no louder than my Iphone itself. I plugged back and forth between amp and Iphone and if there was any difference in volume it was slight...

My question is this: can you connect an iPhone 4 to an external DAC like the E07K where the DAC of the unit will actually be doing the converting from digital to analog? I get the idea of an LOD to an external amp like an E6 as it is doing amp only. But if you can only get analog out of an LOD...

So my friend has been using his FiiO E07K for 4 days and now it wont turn on.   Here's what happened:   He put his PC to sleep then proceeded to turn off the DAC.   When he turned his computer back on, and tried to turn on the DAC it wouldn't work.   He looked around for a while...

I am looking for suggestions on a pair of headphones in the $100 - $200 range approximately.  I have a pair of Klipsch Image One headphones that sound great, but aren't that comfortable for long periods of time.  I generally listen to music or watch movies on my computer or iPad.  At times I...

I just listened to Radiohead's Kid A over these without even breaking them in using my Native Instruments sound card. Boy was that a pleasure.   I used to have a crappy headphone amp I'd route out of an iPod Classic (using the iPod's DAC) to some Denon AH-D2000s. This sounded pretty bad...
