I have a question for the Group Mind. 
 
I'm thinking of buying an NFB 11 headphone amp/DAC. Can my X7 plug directly into the 11 via USB port or do I need to use the audio out and audio in on the 11?
 
 
Thanks folks!

 

[Brooko]

If you're using the X7 as transport only, you'll go coax out on the X7 to coax in on the NFB11

 

[Matthew Davies]

Great, thanks!

I no longer think that I am crazy.


Ever since i got the X7, it felt to me that sometimes it was less bass light, or, more warm sounding, than other times.
I first thought it had to do with my mood.
By now I've discarded that.

Then I thought that maybe it had to do with difference in day and night, as in the morning you have not yet been exposed to much noise, and by night time you have (which changes the way you listen to things)

Up until just now i saw this as a possibility.

But just now I rebooted the X7. and now it's clearly more bassy than it was before i rebooted.

same volume.

same tracks.

same earphones. (FI-BA-SS. despit the 'ba-ss', they're basslight.)


I wish i had some scientific data to prove it all.

That's pretty interesting! 

If we can track when this happens, it might help us understand why it happens !

let me start by first posting this graph, to clear myself from any responsibility of looking like a complete idiot:



i'm probably at the top. FYI.

I've removed the wifi/bluetooth module from my unit, i wonder if that's somehow the cause.

Anyone know if the ViperEffect's Gain feature is the only ReplayGain we are going to get?

 

[jynxed]

So I wonder could someone give me a little advice please.

I have a Fiio X7 with an AM1 attached and recently purchased the DK1 charging dock. I am trying to hook my X7 up to my HDVD800 to act as a source, with the DK1 acting as a charger and so the X7 is not just dumpped on top of my amp.

Usually I use the little lineout to coax adaptor that comes with the X7 to plug a coax right in to the back of the amp.

So I thought it would just be the case of plugging that same little adaptor in to the back of the DK1 with tge coax in to the amp and we would be sorted.

However, there is no sound at all, the X7 seems to change to usb dac mode, so I switch that off. I have also tried changing the multifunctional output setting from SPDIF to Lo and back but nothing.

Couple of notes: I have the DK1 attacked to a power socket via a usb cable and the firmware has been updated to 2.0.

If anyone can help with were I am going wrong it would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Oh yeah is the 50% amp module offer still about? And if so is it still 1 per X7 that was bought with an AM1?

Thanks in advance.

has anyone listened to the Fiio x7 with headphones of ue900?

Dear jynxed,
 
What's the input port of your AMP? It seems that you are using the lineout port of the DK1 to collect the coaxial port of your AMP? It may not be available.
The 50% modules offer is still about, you may read: http://www.head-fi.org/t/809982/get-50-off-of-fiio-x7-modules
 
Best regards

Can anyone explain or give instructions on the various Viper effects - i contacted the Viper company but have had no response yet (some weeks ago).
 
For example the Gain effect has several settings which is strange as i thought replay gain is either on or off?
 
thanks

Yes, those were my previous headphones, but I only listened them with AM1 amp module.
I think AM2 will match UE900 better, warmer and more control on mids/highs that were a bit "harsh" with AM1.
 
At the price you can get them now, an excellent value for the money.
My 2 cents

Hi, thanks for getting back to me. The input on the hdvd800 I am trying to use is coax. I am plugging the other end in to the lineout to coax adapter that came with the x7, then attaching this to the lineout of the DK1.

Before I bought the dk1 I would put 1 end of the coax in to the amp the other in to the fiio supplied lineout/coax adaptor and that in to the top lineout of the x7. It worked fine.

i have. i don't like the sound of the ue900, but for what they are they sound well with the X7 (and am2 module)
