K7 is all about power and sound quality. You simply can't ask for better at its price range. My review on the K7. This thing made me dislike Fiio. Find out why toward end of the read. https://www.head-fi.org/showcase/fiio-k7.26183/review/29593/

Excellent review @Dsnuts there is a very nice synergy between the two products in your photo namely the K7 and FH7S, Im not sure why there hasn't been more love for the later :thinking: FH7S is an excellent IEM.
Oh yea that combo is insanely great. Big bold sound synergy from both IEM and K7. To be honest I haven't heard an IEM that don't like the K7 sound tuning. Everything you see in my photos and a dozen more I didn't post about. It has become my test bed for IEMs.

Great review! I am getting more excited to get my hands on the K7!
Going to use it with my SA6 Ultra and Effect Gaea.
Placed an order on the 13th but still no shipping information.

I have mixed feelings about my Hook X with the K7. The K7 puts too much slam in the low end of the already bloomy Hook X, kick drum sounds undeniably like a cracked boom box, not clean at all. There's an emphasis in the air region above 10K that makes the Hook X sounds unnaturally splashy. On the other hand, the K7 gives the Hook X a taller height, of which the IEM is a bit lack. Soundstage is extra gigantic with the Hook X on K7, this pairing is best with classical, industrial, ambient/field recording music.

Is there the standby mode/no signal (auto standby) on the Fiio K7?

basically do i need to turn on/off the unit all the time when i turn on/off my pc or it goes in standby itself after awhile?
Thank you.

i see pre amp output, so we can use it with speaker too right?

also is there any planning for k7 pro in future? i see even k5 have pro in the end of its name, while this one no
Yes can be used with speakers using pre out :relaxed: I doubt there will be a K7 Pro the only reason the K5 Pro ESS exists is due to the factory fire at AKM which forced FiiO amongst others to use ESS DAC's instead.
