    [FiiO KA17] Mini desktop-class amp, flagship dongle is officially released!

    That is a nice concept. In the meantime, I am using these two small gadgets. They are functional and cheap

    xDSD Gryphon: birth of a ‘head-fi’ legend

    In my case, it probably was a batch issue. First one charged very quickly and drained quickly. The second one charged at normal speed. But the battery drained when it was switched off within a few days.

    xDSD Gryphon: birth of a ‘head-fi’ legend

    Got my 3rd replacement Gryphon a few days ago. No battery issue for now. It is from a new batch. (-:

    xDSD Gryphon: birth of a ‘head-fi’ legend

    I bought the Gryphon for its portability and versatility. iDSD is a marvelous unit but it does not have 4.4 mm out. I think the Signature has such an option. I do not see it as a portable unit. Rather transportable. On paper, Gryphon should take 5 to 6 hours the charge with a suitable charger...

    The support team wants me to return the unit for the second time. It should not be losing charge whilst it is being powered down. :cry::cry:

    Green Mitter case is very pretty with some vintage look. Such a nice device and IE600 is complementing its glory very well. I hope I could solve the battery issue. Simply the best portable device I had for long time provided it solves its power management issue.

    xDSD Gryphon: birth of a ‘head-fi’ legend

    Looks a bad batch? The first unit had serial xxxxxx0387 and the second xxxxxx0361. However, it looks like I am not going to get any solution or help from either the seller or iFi support. On the previous occasion too, the iFi support; while admitting the battery fault, advised me to get the...

    xDSD Gryphon: birth of a ‘head-fi’ legend

    iFi support is silent on the battery drain issue! The seller who exchanged the first unit for the bad battery is now sending information not related to the issue. They say that unit charges only 70% when charged it's switched on. The issue is not that. When it is switched on after a while, the...

    I opened up a ticket with iFi for battery drain when switched off. No response yet! :sob: If there is a battery issue in the replacement unit (1st had a bad battery) I must be very unfortunate.

    Oh no! This is the second unit after the first one having battery issues! But there are other few members who reported battery drain after switching it off. @iFi audio can you clarify this? Do I have to open a ticket again? :cry::cry::cry:

    xDSD Gryphon: birth of a ‘head-fi’ legend

    I wish I could use it more often but I am a busy Physician. I have so many other battery-operated devices but the rate of idle discharge is a bit rapid, I would say. I also agree iFi has to relook at the power management of this wonderful device. I bought a pair of Sennheiser IE600 to pair with...

    xDSD Gryphon: birth of a ‘head-fi’ legend

    There is a definitive idle current working inside Gryphon when it goes to a SOFT power off! After keeping the replacement unit for 3 days almost 25% of the charged capacity is gone due to idle drain. Is this normal? I guess there is a way to keep it with HARD power off as the normal way of...

    Thank you! I was having those setting on. I upgraded the firmware and did a factory reset. Now it works with UAPP.
