Hi guys! I posted a little while back and I came to the conclusion that I would buy the A700 as a headphone for my laptop. I didn't end up buying it and now can spend a little more money. ($200 tops). I was hoping you guys could help me pick, this is what I'm looking for in one:   -Great...

Hi. I'm new 'round these parts. I currently have a Sennhesier HD 555 and a Fiio E7 DAC/amp. My general impression of the HD 555 is good, although I have a nagging suspicion that it cost more than it is worth. As for the Fiio E7, I am wholeheartedly pleased with the purchase. It alone has...

Were you once audio ignorant? Did you buy headphones such as Skullcandys or Beats? Would you settle for ibuds? Are you now into good quality brands discussed on this very website? If you answered yes to some of these questions then this is the topic for you! What did you have before you...

Hello all. I decided to buy a decent pair of headphones but i am a newbie when it comes to the world of hi-fi audio. I set my eyes on a pair of AKG 272 after some intensive research on forums...I do not have the opportunity to test them and hear how they sound, but from what i saw on the web...

First off, I want to say that I've found this forum and all its members to be a great help with modding, reviews, recommendations, etc, and I want to thank you guys for that!   Now, here's the deal - Many years ago I acquired my very first "audiophile" grade headphone, the Grado SR-80.  I...

Hi, I was wondering if the FiiO e7 will power the 250ohm DT 770 off of my laptop. I'm sorry if this has already been discussed but I'm kind of new at this.

Hi all, pardon me if i should have posted this in the amp section. I got the grado 225i recently and have been listening to mp3/flac straight out of the headphone jack of my '09 macbook pro. it sounds great to me but i seriously can't hear any difference when playing 128/192kbs mp3 and flac...

  Hey all,   I'm new to the world of "audiophilia" and I was wondering what you guys thought would be a good portable amp to use with my HD-598s? I don't really know anything in terms of power and the science/physics behind the generation of sound that I am looking for so I was wondering...

Hello fellow Head-Fiers. I'm after a bit if advice as my 2 week old Fiio E7 seems to be broken/breaking already. I have my iPod connected to the Fiio via a LOD which in turn feeds my headphones. Music plays fine except when my headphone connector turns in the headphone out of the Fiio i get a...

Let's talk about the outlook of E11 first, Fiio E11 is consistent special and beautiful  with  wi        with past model E7 which is a lightweight design and give up a dac function and display from E7. The body of E11 is casted by brushed aluminum to achieve lighter weight , only 65g, and the...

Hello,   I'm very new to quality audio, especially in the headphone market.  I've been reading a bit the last couple weeks trying to find the right setup to improve my listening experience without breaking the bank.   What confuses me is the use of a DAC/AMP with devices such as the...

Hey guys. I kept reading that for high end headphones, you would want an amp. Problem is I only listen to music when I'm on the go. Do they have portable amps for the K702? Why do I need an amp? It is a 62ohm headphone. Would it not sound good if I didn't use an amp? Just out of curiousity, are...

Hey all   Got a new Fiio E7 today and ran it through its paces. The DAC is very clean sounding, but unfortunately, I get the feeling that my unit is faulty. Mainly, the bass boost is totally whack and I get distortion even at level 1, similar to what this person...

Which amp is better for Denon adh2000? The d-zero is around 109$ and the fiio e7 93$. thanks!

Hello peeps I have 2 high-end headphones, the Sennheiser HD 598s which I've had for about a month and the Shure SRH 940s which I just got a couple of days ago. My music collection is mostly mp3s encoded in 192 - 320 kbps and 256kbps purchased AACs from the iTunes store, but I think I'm going...

I'm interested in buying headphone amplifier in Dubai. Have you got any infomation? Please, share your thoughts. Thanks.

I am totally green for Hifi listening, just got a Q701 and my main listening source is macbook pro, also have a ipod classic (160G), but mainly I use IE6 for my ipod, which i think it is fine even without dac/amp. Hence I want to ask you guys which amp/dac (portable first, desktop is fine) you...

I currently have the E7 and am planning to use it as a DAC... The most common upgrade FWIR will be the E9, however my friend is selling a Meixing mc66 AE for ~170   I have not heard of the E9 but the Meixing sounds very good (compared to the only amp I have, the E7). The noise is quite loud...

So it's all set up and docked - E7 on it's own sounds great, E9 on it's own sounds great, but when I dock the E7 and hook up the USB cable for it to my source with audio still coming in via the line in on the E9, the Fiio logo lights up red indicating power - Fiio is docked and switched on - yet...
