Hi.
I'm having a LOW VOLUME problem.
Was got a FiiO E07K from buddy who was changing to a different DAC.
Have read lots of great things about this device, so was really excited to try it out.
Some background:
Source:
I have tried it with PC computers at home and at work, but get very low volume from each.
Headphone:
B&W P5 (1st gen, ~27ohm, I think), Grado SR80 (32ohm) and a pair of quite decent but cheap earbuds.
Settings:
I have set output on "Playback Devices" on computer to "SPDIF Interface, 3- FiiO USB DAC-E07K"
Have tried computer volume at varied levels, right up to maximum volume output, which yields audible but quiet output from E07K.
E07K is set to max volume (60) and gain at +12dB
Have also tried E07K with USB CHG in both "on" and "off" positions, but no effect
Buddy was using this same unit with his Mac computer, and both Shure in-ears and pair of ATH50.
Says it sounded great.
I am definitely not trying to blow my ears out.
The volume levels when using this are on the edge of barely audible, even when all pieces in the chain are connected at Max volumes.
I'm at a loss.
Can someone help?
Thanks,
Greg
