What are you using as your DAP source? Running from LO or HO?
I can't compare my E11K to E11 since I don't have one, but I honestly didn't find low gain setting on E11k to yield low volume using it from LO of X5 and AP100 and testing it with IM03, IM50, W40, HP150, KC06A, VSD3S, and even Havi B3 Pro I. In every case sound improvement was very noticeable, comparing to DAPs built-in amp and also to E18 used as an amp. And I was even pleased with Havi which is known to require amping where low gain setting worked quite well. I was testing it with 320kbps mp3s and FLACs. Plus, Dsnuts and ClieOS confirmation of E11k improvement over E11 is a very reputable confirmation
Sansa Clip+ Rockboxed and that goes louder then gain on low haha...if on high it boosts the volume spectacular!!! sound quality is not very far off with the E11,but that is my opinion....

Do you mean they modded it or "MOD" as in module? Just curious since the cover is off.

On the WS99 probably not so much in fact the older E11 would probably give some extra bass for basshead performace more so than the E11K. Sensitive iems and something like a Philips L2 and you will be able to clearly tell a difference.

What did they mod?
Battery mod? I don't trust most battery mods. As most batteries you can buy that are hi-cap are actually worse.

He just adds a few "Not So Boutique" capacitors and charges too much money for what is changed... The same as his E12 mod... xD

Yea, I got mine from b&h.
I have the opposite problem as dailysmoker, where when I use iem's, even at low gain and low volume settings, it's pretty loud. I'm using a dac that outputs 2vrms, so I kinda suspected going in that this was gonna be an issue.

Won't be the last time this kind of thing happens over the internet
When will someone add Sugar, Spice, and Everything Nice into an amp?
