Hi All,
 
I just ordered myself an E11 from Micca Store. They're having a nice promo ATM, with a bundle of E11, second battery and charger. I also bundled the SoundMAGIC PL-50's ($40.00 in the bundle, ~$15.00 off MSRP) since I was curious about them, and I needed something to run around with.
 
I'm hoping the E11 lives up to the praise it's enjoying. Sure is an attractive design.

These are excellent..I have had mine two days and using it constantly, makes those IEM's you love but that lack a little bass, it makes them PERFECT!!!!!!  Grandslam I believe!!!!!
Is anybody else having trouble posting pictures!!!!! This is so frustrating

ahh... well i found th name of it.

PA2V2(lol close) how does that compare with the fiio e11? i have people tell me that the e11 beats it on bass and is equal if not better in mid and treble. but the PA2V2 does make a rig look more proffessional.

I just got the E11 4 days ago and It's the first portable amp that I have tried. I paired it up with an Iphone and Klipsch X10i and have to say the sound quality has increased. Bass became so much smoother and treble is now much more pronounced. 
 
The following settings works for me EQ0, Volume 4, Gain Low and Voltage High. Setting the EQ to 1 or 2 seemed to distort the bass prolly from all that power driving an IEM.
 
I also let my friend test it on his Sennheiser 238 and he was so impressed he bought one the next day.
 
Now I was wondering if the sound quality of my current setup would improve if I tried it on a none IEM. I was thinking a Sennheser HD 25-II or a HD650. Anyone here who owns a X10 and a Sennheiser HD650 or HD 25-II? Would there be a huge improvement?
 
Thanks in advance.

there is quite a noticable improvement with the HD 25-1-II's it amps up the bass quite the bit and spreads open treble, leaves mid range alone completly for me. Its a great improvement upon the stock HD25 sound, i garuntee it.

I am loving the E11 bass boost, firstly the E11 powers the Ultrasone Pro 900 very well even without high power active... add some EQ2 and you have some seriously sexy portable bass.

I'm a happy owner of an E7 currently. I love how the +1 bass boost on it adds to my Ad900. I've heard the E11 is naturally more "dark" than the E7. Can someone who has both comment?



I have both.  The E11 is warmer.  The E7 is more 'sterile' / slightly colder.  It's the best way I can describe it.  I don't use the word 'dark' - because I don't believe that term really describes my impresssion of them.  I see others describing the E11 as dark - but IMO the term "warm" suits it better.
 
Here was my comparison - hope it helps:

I think it's warmer still in high voltage mode that neither of us use but most here do.

I found not that much difference between the two - so I chose low power mode to conserve battery life.  If I was using something with higher impedance / harder to drive, I'd switch - but none of my current IEM's / cans need that much juice.  And the E11 is warm enough to me without switching.
