Thanks Jack!  I guess that I did not even realize that you were an amazon retailer. I will picking one of these up in the next few days then.    -Chris

I am interested to know what the status is of this also.  I keep checking Micca Store, mp4nation and ebay and have yet to see an L7 become available for purchase and I really need a stand alone DAC.   -Chris 

Just as a thought on this, Fiio does offer an L7 LOD that will plug into the E7 and will allow the DAC to be used with an external amp. This would mean that the E7 could be used with the E9 without using the built in dock and thus allowing you to keep the case on.  Just a thought anyways.  ...

Quote: I would have to say that this comment seems to fly in the face of most of the comments that I have heard about the DT990s.  They are very well know as being huge treble and bass monsters that are akin to "wearing a rave on your head".    I just saw that comment and it really...

Quote: It would be awsome if the E17 allowed you to use the bass boast!!    Ultimately what I would like to see is 1 integrated box with dac and amp combined, with the digital display on the front, with the bass boast feature, and with fully rollable opamps simular to what iBasso...

I have the DT880/600's but have heard the DT990/600's several times on my little dot mkiv.  It is a great combo indeed!  you get the bass but the tubes warm the sound up just a little bit. The DT990 are always going to be a bright can but the little dot just take a little bit of the edge off and...

check out miccastore.com  they were running a deal where you could get a discount for ordering them together.  Plus their customer service is top notch. I have ordered from them multiple times and have never been dissapointed.   -Chris

Unfortunately the DT990s are considered to be one of the brightest cans around.  There is not much that you are going to be able to do to tame them.  The only hope to bring them down some would be to pair them with a tube amp and add the warmest tubes that you could find.  However even then they...

Subscribed, this will be an automatic purchase for me as well the day that it is released. 

Has their been any updates on the development of this? I have been settled on buying a dedicated DAC for my ld mkiv and just stumbled on this.  If this were true then I would not need to drop money on a second DAC and could instead add another set of cans to the collection. muuhahahah

X3   In fact the K240 would probably be the last set of cans that I would reach for when listening to hip hop or rock, instead it would be my DT770/80s and MS1i (modded of course  ) respectively.  For Clapton or something like Elton John though the K240 may be the first.     Quote:

Subscribing to this.  I really think this could be a fun can to add to the collection.  

Having both of these units I will also attest to the fact that the E9 has absolutely no issues in regards to power for the 880/600s.  On high gain 12 o'clock is only tolerable for short periods and I am a person used to running sound for live rock shows using a minimum of 4 - 5kwrms of power...

The HD555 really would be a great option.  impedance is not the only factor and the difference between 50 and 32 ohm is negligible.  The HD555 has a rather high sensitivity and should not have any problem being driven by your sound card.  I know I can great very good volume out of mine when I...
