Do the RCA ports on the back support pre-out or only line out?

I want to connect two sets of speakers to both RCA and XRL as pre-out.

HI, it supports pre-out. There is a knob in the front panel and you can set it to Preout or LO.

Will the current version of the iOS Fiio Control app work with the K17 (before or after the firmware update)?

BT pairing NOT working again.

I did a "Reset All" after doing the firmware update. Went to Bluetooth working mode - it doesn't go to pairing mode. Tried "Reset BT" - still didn't go to pairing mode.

BUT Then I noticed my unit is again frozen in PO+PRE and UH!

@FiiO @FiiO-Yellow @FiiO Willson

FIX THIS!

The same freezing and wifi password issues (already previously reported) were NOT addressed.

@FiiO Updated to the latest V183 firmware. But still can't update MCU firmware just like last time via MacOS. The firmware update says it would work but it still doesn't. PLEASE help with the MCU update. Thank you!

I took the wording that after this update, it will work on Mac. ("Subsequent")

Hi, need to upgrade the fiio control app in your iOS devices

Hi, sorry, it will take effect in subsequent firmware versions.

Hi, We fixed two special characters(&,^) issue in last firmware. May i ask what is the special character you mean?

Hi, need to upgrade the fiio control app in your iOS devices

Thank you for your reply. I deleted the Fiio Control app from my iPhone (iOS 18.4) and reinstalled it fresh from the Apple app store. My iPhone and my K17 are on the same network - iPhone connected to router WiFi, K17 connected to router ethernet. I have also tried both connected and disconnected Bluetooth. I also updated to firmware V183 and MCU firmware V87 (which went well)

The K17 is not listed as a "compatible device" and the Fiio Control app is unable to find the K17. Any suggestions?

Yes, I saw that you ONLY included & and ^ - BUT my special character is neither of these 2.

Why don't you include the whole keyboard special character list??? Why just address 2 special characters?

`~!@#$%^&*()_+-={}[]|\:";'<>,.?/

It's a shame - my el cheapo Hiby R1 connects to my wifi with no issues - but your K17 can't do this?

Come on FiiO!!! Don't try to do shortcuts.

Dear friend,

Hi, sorry we checked again with the engineer and they told us that the iOS version FiiO Control does not support K17 yet. But the engineers are doing the last testing. When it is available, we will release. If you have the Android mobile phone, you could use the latest version FiiO Control app for try.

Best regards

Dear friend,

Hi, we have reported to the engineer again for assessing about that. Thanks for your kind feedback.

Best regards
