Dear Respected Customers,
 
 
FiiO has strived to constantly progress and innovate with fresh ideas in the portable amplifier market since its own entry. With the A5, we continue this tradition by striving to significantly improve over our previous products. 
 
Beyond just getting output power near that of the E12 of 800mW at 32 Ω, you also get the E12A’s exquisite abilities in reproducing music. All of the details mean that the A5 combines the best of both the E12 and the E12A.
 
Check the introduction of A5 by below pictures or >> Click Here
 
The delivery of A5 to our worldwide agents starts this week. If you are interested in this lovely product, please kindly check with local agents (>>Where to Buy) for its availability soon.
 
 
Best regards,
FiiO Electronics Technology Co., Ltd.

Any impressions guys?

 
Its a really light and airy sounding amp that really takes my E17K to the next level. It is quite a bit better than the stock X7 amp module as well. 
 
In fact it is so transparent and detailed that it makes the E17K sound quite a bit better compared to its headphone out. Like night and day difference (darker vs lighter sound). It has enough power to drive my HD600 and sounds good with all my sources, and it strikes the right balance in sound, not boosting any particular frequency.
 
I am not a fan of the bass boost though, its a ?5dB boost and feels a bit too midbassy, but then again I am comparing it to the bass boost of the amp section of the ifi iDSD Micro, which does it more tastefully. 
 
Thats my only nitpick, its an amazing sounding portable amplifier otherwise. I rubber banded it to my E17K and that has been my go to stack the last few days.
