Hi all,

Here's a FiiO launch that might arouse the community's interest. We’re ecstatic about the new FiiO Q7 Portable Desktop-Class DAC/Amp. While it’s only 6” on its longest side, it boasts desktop-level power, a THX amplifier, and an ESS SABRE DAC chip, making it an undeniable solution for digital nomads, frequent travelers, or anyone who simply needs to save space.

$750.

oh man, more than the ifi gryphon? ill go on record here lol, id be stunned if it out performed the ifi, just from my own use with it and from hearing fiio amps..... just a guess though anything is possible. The gryphon is noticeable better than my SH9 THX ( better in real usage to me anyway )

Calling it a Q7 is a bit weird, isn't it more like a BTR cause it has Bluetooth while the Q series doesn't?

Q5S has Bluetooth. Q7 has Bluetooth. The future Q9 will probably also have Bluetooth

Outside being louder, I bet its tonality doesn't beat the IFi...

Topping G5 is better than gryphon imho and definitely more powerful at half the price.

I'm nit to impressed with q7 because like m17, it has to be plugged in for the best sound. Might as well get a desktop if you have to be plugged in imho.

 

[Onik]

portable dacs are dying, and this one is useless if you have m17 LOL

 

[DarginMahkum]

this one is useless if you have m17

Exactly, it is useless if you have the M17 that costs more than double.
