Hey Matt, I've seen a few posts where you recommend using +12 gain on the Fiio E17 and now the same with the E07K. I thought it would cause distortion and should be used only when unable to reach a good listening volume, so I've kept my E17 @ 0 gain and still manage to get a very good listening volume (usually never go beyond 36).
Do you have any particular reason for turning the gain setting all the way up, maybe better detail retrieval or an improved dynamic range?
The e07k pairs well with the he400. +12 gain worked for me...
