As the most representative portable headphone amplifier, the E06 (or its predecessors E5/E6) was one of the most popular models among FiiO products in terms of sales quantity. Indeed, a portable amp at this price determines its high market demands. After the E06 served for so long time, it’s time for us to greet its new born successor the brand new A1.

 

FiiO A1 is on the way to our worldwide sales agents! details please view here.

I have always been intrigued by compact and micro sized amplifiers, and I would love to see FiiO's take on this form factor! Especially in light of how well the E06 was received, it would be awesome to see what improvements have been made.
 
Keeping my fingers crossed!

Congrats for the new baby!
 
About the BASS3 curve on product page, is it correct?
In my reading its not an attenuated bass, all the range is about -5db lower - its like the BASS off at lower volume, right?

Wow!
What a tiny little beauty it is. I am always fascinated by the performance of these little things. Here's hoping I get a chance to find out all about this one!!

I was just about to pull the trigger on the E06. I am interested in comparisons between the 06 and A1.

 

[speakerphone]

Looks great. I'm also looking forward to trying the Fiio EM3.

 

[AC1]

Will be interested to see how it compares to other mini/micro amps as well.

 

[FlyingFungus]

I'm potentially in the market for a small amp...small look, big sound am I right?

 

[HiFiChris]

What are the exact differences between A1's two direct predecessors, the E6 and E06 Fujiyama if I might ask, except for the different naming and labeling on the outside? Any internal changes?

The E6 was a good amp for getting 'round high impedance source devices without having to spend much. Bit plasticky but hey, low output impedance and two included cables. It was always a model I recommended to newer users in Germany when they wanted to try out how their multi-driver in-ears sound correctly but didn't want to or couldn't spend much on a more expensive portable low-impedance headphone amplifier.

Would be awesome if there was another version/model of A1 that featured BT receiver w/aptX so I can clip to my collar for wireless use with headphones. Majority of current aptX receivers lack an amp and the Audio Technica ones are not local models so no warranty.
 
EDIT: Good luck with the product launch and thanks for this contest!

Remind a lot the E6... Great small piece of AMP !

Billyk, you will have chance to try this little beauty, it is shipped all over the world now, but i do wish you will be the lucky one to win one A1 here.
