Any news about Q7, is there a parameter sheet available? or it is still under development?

Portable desktop DAC/Amp Q7: expected to be released in October; see picture:

The Q7 is actually a simplified version of the M17. Since the M17 was released, it has been adored by consumers for its powerful functions and huge output power, which far exceeded our expectations. However, the price of the M17 is indeed too high due to the cost limit, making many people feel discouraged.
Therefore, we have turned it into a pure DAC/Amp by canceling the high-cost display screen and SoC module on the M17. But the desktop mode, DC power supply, and THX788+ amp technology will be retained. In addition, in order to control the cost, the ES9038Pro chip will be changed from 2 to 1.

thank you, but this is not news, it is repost.
I suppose that you have finalized the spec, for one thing I wonder, whats its size.

Dear Nealz,

The M11S will be released at about August. And I am sorry I could not provide more information currently.

Question on the ka2 dongle -

Without hardware volume control, is the the volume set at 100% all the time?

Does this mean a higher likelihood of distortion or noise?

Does this cause a lack of dynamics or other negative impacts in sound by controlling the input volume to dac (as opposed to the old rule of thumb of setting input to 100%)?

Which Bluetooth chipset will it use?

BT is included with the Qualcomm chip so you can find the exact ref

Dear brazy001,

You could adjust the volume of the mobile phone/computer for help. And in the Android FiiO Control app, the volume of KA2 could be adjusted.

Dear bemeurer,

We need to wait for its release in order to get more information.
