am i the only one that get interference with the E17 if i were to place a cellphone near it or the headphone wires? Enabling airplane mode helps decrease the chance, but it doesn't get rid of it completely

Strange! Most of the times I use it with my phone, keep them both in the small bag, even with the wires wrapped around when I don't need all the length. Never had interference, not even when receiving calls..

The E17 works properly with the iPhone 6+ and a passive hub with camera connection kit! With my 5s I got clicking and static noise in the background and this noise no longer exists on the 6+

The portable FiiO E17 DAC/Amp setup with iPhone 6+ and JRemote (playing back from MC20 on HTPC)

 
 

 

24bit 96K playback through JRemote

 
 
The desktop setup I use at work and at my PC with the E09K/E17 DAC/Amp.
 
 

 
 
5S vs 6+ (The 5S feels like a toy now after having the 6+ for a few days.)

Quick question... how easy is it to adjust left/right balance on the E17?  Is convenient enough that it's not a hassle if you feel like you have to adjust the balance fairly frequently?  ie, everytime you change albums, for example?

 

[TrollDragon]

Just select it from the menu and change it, 3 or 4 button clicks.

You do this why???

My hearing is ever so slightly worse with right ear, like 1-2 dB but it seems to vary with frequency somewhat.  Then I have allergies that screw up my sinuses and that messes up left/right hearing balance as well (iono if it's sinuses, like how hearing goes weird when ascending/descending in airplanes, but doesn't affect both ears equally).  Basically, everytime I sneeze/blow nose/swallow, my left/right hearing balance may get tweaked.  The 2 issues kinda feed into each other and exacerbate my obsession with getting vocals or whatever properly centered.

Wow.
Sorry to hear that, I feel for you not being able to just hit play and enjoy.
 
The balance would be easy enough to adjust on an album basis, per song it would get a little annoying though.

Just to clarify how the menu works. Once you've selected and changed balance in the menu it will go back to volume after 10secs, but it's only 2 menu clicks to go back into balance so it's pretty quick.

Don't worry I have plenty of metal too. There's just not much metal in hi-res audio to test 96/24 playback. only have 3 or 4 hi-res metal albums. Joe satch, Uriah Heap, Stained and maybe one more.

Would you recommend this amp for AK120? 
 
Is it safe to assume that i won't be messing the SQ as i'll be using the E17 for amp only? 
 
Ak120 headphone out -> Fiio E17 AUX -> Fiio E17 headphone out -> beyer DT1350
