    New Dragonfly Black and Red Discussion

    What are other's experience with using this on the new iPad Pro? I have the 11" and just got the official Apple USB-C to USB adapter and plugged my Dragonfly Red into it and it's not working as expected with the Onkyo HiRes player. It keeps downsampling to 44.1khz. I once had it at 48khz, but...

    Audio Technica ATH-E70, ATH-E50, ATH-E40 IEMs announced at NAMM 2016

    I want to know this as well. I've loved my IM03 for a few years now and seen two rounds of upgrades. Is the current gen or next gen worth looking into? Is the quad a significant upgrade?

    iPhone 6s Sound Quality

    Just bought a 6s yesterday.  I put iOS 9.1 beta on it and am not hearing any electronic noise.  I am using Audio Technica ATH-CK10's (107dB/mW) and I have the IM02 at home. I tried to replicate what OP was doing in the video and could not reproduce it.     Maybe they fixed this in 9.1?

    [Poor Man Reviews] Audio Technica ATH-IM02

    Hands down the IM02's are superior to the SE315's.  I ended up giving my SE315's away to a friend.  The IM02's are just much more clear sounding than the SE315's.  I would go so far as to say that the 315's just sound a bit congested in direct A:B comparison, but this is likely due to the fact...

    iPhone 6 & 6 Plus Audio Quality

    Hehe.  Took me a sec, but I see what you did there. You mean for both the 6 & 6+, not implying there's a difference between them right?  Hardware-wise, there really is no difference between the two.   Same chips, same amps, same components other than the battery, screen & some camera parts...

    [Poor Man Reviews] Audio Technica ATH-IM02

    Just got the IM02's today.  So far I'm very impressed with them.   I mainly got them because, while I love my CK10's, I'm getting a little tired of needing an amp to get their full potential out of my iPhone.  Even something as basic as a FiiO E6 can be annoying to deal with at times.    ...

    Has anyone been able to measure the output impedance on the iPhone 6 yet?

    ios7, iPhone and Apple CCK

      It may only be an issue with the E17, but a charging option may or may not fix your problem.  The E17 won't work without the hub no matter if I have usb charging set to on or off.

    ios7, iPhone and Apple CCK

      This one from Amazon, works great so far, though listening through the CCK does seem to drain my battery rather quickly and I'm not sure why.  I'll have to experiment more.

    FiiO E6 - story of the tiny amp continues... (w/ review on 1st page)

    Do NOT follow his advice, it is incorrect for batteries in lithium ion devices. The E6 has a lithium battery and as such has no "battery memory." Repeated full discharges of this type of battery will actually damage it and reduce it's lifespan. What Shawn is suggesting here applies to older...

    ios7, iPhone and Apple CCK

    Here is my iPhone 5 running through my FiiO E17 amping my CK10s. I'm using the smallest passive USB hub I could find but so far no "too much power" errors. So much better than the line out + dock adapter I was using before.

    New Comply™ Foam Tips Compatibility Update!

    Sorry to bump an old thread but I just want to add info for any Audio Technica ATH-CK10 owners like me who want the isolation of foam tips.   Despite what Comply Foam says, the T-200's fit my CK10's perfectly.  The barrel size of them is perfect for the CK10 and doesn't fall off.  The T-400's...

    FiiO warranty service through re-sellers stinks - dead E9 dock port

    Sorry I'm venting a bit because I'm frustrated.  About 11 months ago I purchased an E9 amp through eMusic Enterprise (feiao says they're a re-seller).  The dock port on the first one I received was dead on arrival.  I figured it was just a fluke, so I returned it through Amazon and got another...

    E17 won't turn on

    Hi Feiao,   I sent you a PM.  My E17 won't charge anymore and I can't figure out why.  It won't charge with the USB cable and it won't charge while docked in my E9.  Battery is almost dead.  Any suggestion?

    The FiiO X3 Thread UPDATE: Project Back On! Read the First Post for Information.

    Except there would be some significant lag in menus and such, at least if it had an elaborate color LCD display like we've all come to expect.
