    [FiiO K5Pro/K5Pro ESS]Desktop DAC and Amplifier+768K/32Bit and DSD512 decoding+3 gain levels (K5 Pro ESS (Red Version) Is Available Now)

    I Thanks for the info. I'm not using a separate amp with my computer and K5. Someone suggested turning the computer volume all the way up, and control the volume with the K5. Does that sound like the right thing to do with the setup I have?

    I received my K5Pro yesterday and to see how headphones sound and make sure the input works I hooked up my Ultimate Ears TripleFi 10 earbuds. The input works and they sound pretty good. Kind of hard to remember how they sounded with the E17 I replaced since as I don't listen to music that...

    Just to see how headphones sound and make sure the input works I hooked up my Ultimate Ears TripleFi 10 earbuds. The input works and they sound pretty good. Kind of hard to remember how they sounded with the E17 since as I said don't listen to music that often anymore. The Altec speakers have...

    Thanks for trying to point me in the right direction. I sent an e-mail to FiiO to ask if I have it set up right and why the computer lists it as speakers. Main thing is the computer has sound. I don't listen to music as much as I used to do, but since the E17 was getting a bit old I figured...

    Looked at the FAQs and answered a couple questions. 7.Why do we see different colors when we look at the indicator light carefully? Because the K5 Pro uses two RGB lamps, and the yellow color is a mixture of red and green. Due to the difference in the material of the RGB lamps, it is normal...

    I have it connect by the USB cable that came with it. I have the speakers connected to the line out in the back. So you think using the head phone jack for the speakers is better than using the line out in the back?

    Yeah, it's Sounds, but as I was saying it is listed as That's the file I downloaded and installed. Just wondering why it's calling it Speakers.

    FiiO E17 "ALPEN" - First Impression + Final Thought

    It's listed as FiiO Q series and calls it Speakers. There is no Supported Formats tab. Could that be because I'm using the line out for my powered speakers? Is that something to be concerned about?

    It's listed as FiiO Q series and calls it Speakers. There is no Supported Formats tab. Could that be because I'm using the line out for my powered speakers? There was no other 32bit setting so I selected 24bit 96000. Where the blue light was a solid blue now light is a yellow green color...

    The K5Pro came from Amazon today. The E17 I reset it, but screen is still dead. However, I hooked it up to my phone through the AUX and I was able to switch the input so that I could hear music through headphones and the volume controls worked. Not sure what I'll do with it, but at least I...

    Well I thought the E17 was working fine. Since I never mess with it, and leave it on all the time I just noticed the volume controls aren't working and the screen is dead. So I ordered from Amazon the K5 Pro.

    Been connected like that since the E17 came out. Thanks for the info. Still seems to be working fine. Just wanted to have some options for when it dies.

    I don't need portable. The E17 stays connected to my desktop computer all the time. I attached a screen shot that shows how the E17 is recognized by my computer. Will both of these do the same?

    I'm using an E17 Alpen on my desktop computer as I guess for my sound card. It's working fine, but I have had it for a while. In the event it goes down what was the FiiO replacement/upgrade for the E17? I e-mailed them and they said the K3 or Q5. Would those replace the E17 for what I'm...

    Is anyone that has the E17and isn't going to use the little rubber feet; wouldn't mind parting with them?  I'll send you an envelope with my address and a stamp.  Please PM me if you wouldn't mind doing it.  Mine didn't have them.  The Micca Store said they don't have any extra and I wasn't...

    What is a good battery replacement for the stock battery in Fiio E11?

    I bought this battery:   http://www.ebay.com/itm/260796737435   And this Charger:   http://www.ebay.com/itm/140674698715   I like this charger over the type the Micca Store sells because it has a LED window to show the battery is charging, and fully charged not just a light that...

    After having used mine for a couple days I have to say over all I happy with it.  I can't say it improved anything, since it's hooked up to my desktop computer and I normally used my MP3 player if I wanted to listen to music while on the computer.  The only minor problem I'm having is that...

    Review of Fiio E11

    I tried to post this in the buy and sell forum, but it said I wasn't allowed.  I guess I haven't been a member long enough?  I just bought off Ebay two new E11s for $60 each with free shipping.  The person has 8 more for sale.     http://tinyurl.com/6u8lha6

    Don't be dumb like me.   I received my E17 yesterday, so I decided to hook it up before I went to bed last night.  I hooked up the USB cable and it turned Red for a few seconds and went out.  I figured it needed to be charged, so I went to bed.   When I got up this morning I pressed the...

    OK I ordered the L7 from the Micca Store.  Figured I would throw them some business for getting the E17 to me.

    Quote: I know that it connects similar to how an iPod would connect, but if I do connect the L-7 to my E17 can I still use the E17 as a headphone amp, or is it just a DAC with the L7 connected.  If I can do both fine.  If not I'll do a splitter off the headphone jack, since the...
