Hey what does the red color?
It looks red!

Is that why they call it red?

Black and Blue and Red all over is the guy whose wife found out how much he's spent on headphones, Amps and DACs.

Hi first post here! I think my Fiio e12 volume is not working the amp is not very loud at max volume 0 gain, about as loud as an ipod or zune. From what I've been reading It should be plenty loud at 11o'clock - 12o'clock. I'm using martin logan m90 (26 Ohms)

Make sure the source's volume is set to max...

 

[badbat]

Thanks for the fast reply. I should of stated that the source volume is at max. Everything sounds great. I thought it was going to be louder. I think the volume nob might not be working right

 

[badbat]

I guess I just need To know if playing this amp at max volume is normal or not. If it is not working properly I'll return it

For your head phone, it's not

Have you checked the gain switch?

Have you checked the gain switch?

 
Helpful info, please, guys! Thoroughly read his posts before jumping the gun. He should not have to put it on high gain for the Mikros M90s!

Get a replacement, my friend. Something isn't right if you say your source is at max volume, and the E12 is at max volume with the Mikros....

Have you checked the gain switch?

In his post he said it was set for 0 gain (line level). It's POSSIBLE the switch could be stuck inbetween or something, but FWIR when that happens you get BOTH line level and high gain circuits going, so it still shouldn't be too quiet.

I don't know what sensitivity the Martin Logan M90 rates, in fact I don't know much about the ML M90s at all (ML makes headphones too?), but my E12 can drive everything from my EarPods to my K712 Pros to deafening levels (literally). That said, my 5th gen iPod can drive my 50 Ohm Koss KSC75s louder than I'm comfortable listening to.

Everything means other phones from your collection? Did you/do yiu hear any static while turning the pot/knob? Do you hear the difference when you use gain,BB CF switches though low volume? Did you notice this issue all of a sudden while active listening or the other way? Hope you didnt drop it facing volume knob hittin the floor?
finally, hows the charging and discharging status of the Amp,normal?

To add,check the volume limit under Settings as well. Just............somebody would've tweaked accidentally,w/o your knowledge.
