Hello,
I'm a new guy here. I'm a bit new to the world of mid-fi / hi-fi, but not new to the world of audio processing, and audio formats.
My question is in regards to the FiiO E7; Does the FiiO E7 (with the camera adapter kit for the iPad) truly bypass the iPad's Cirrus DAC? My concern is that it simply would process as a line out instead of actually passing the processing to the Wolfson DAC inside the E7.
Currently I listen to lossless files from an iPad as my main source of music. Generally, I rip my music down from original CD's into lossless format using DBpoweramp (accurip). I think the iPad does a good job for what it is . . . a portable media device. I couple this with Bowers and Wilkins C5's (I know . . i know . . .they aren't the most popular IEM's around here, but I personally like them after a slight EQ tweak through EQu)
Any info, or first hand experience would be great - thanks!
