Question for Fiio / James / Mica / Whoever
 
1. When will the E7 line-out cord be released? (I will pay for an engineering sample or something, I really want this feature)
2. Will the E7 line-out allow the E7's "bass boost" to be used with the E9?
 
Thanks!

I'm pretty sure 2 is a no. Considering the reason we don't get the bass boost with the E9 line it is because it's part of the amp circuit and not the DAC. Thus, any line out would bypass it completely.

So sad, I think you're right. Can anyone confirm
I miss the bass boost on the E9

Yea it powers them to a decent volume level.
Theres a difference for bass for harder to drive headphones. I'd reccomend getting an E9 too for harder to drive phones

Already ordered the E9 along with the E7 and DT770 600ohm from Micca on Amazon. The ability to run the headphones with the E7 alone is just a bonus since i will mostly be using it as a desktop headphone.

Does macs have an EQ? - As equalizing goes, I mean...

I don't know but you can also use the EQ from your player... I'm running Windows 7 here, I installed Foobar (a program to play audio files) and whenever I need EQ, I use Foobar's EQ settings..
 
However, I'm not sure about the audio file player available for MAC..

Can anyone confirm if the bass boost will be retained through the line out audio cable for E7?
 
Yes, I know I can software Eq, but it does not sound as good

Oddworld!
 
I am very sorry, the line out kits of E7 will not support the bass boost! unless we change the deign of E7, but we will consider it in our future products!

When plugging E7 into E9, what volume will cause volume to not distort?
56?
(I have the most current E7, with the fiio red LED for charging)

 

[loganirado]

I don't know if my E7 is different from yours but once it is docked to the E9, the volume is only controllable with the E9 control, so it doesn't matter which volume the E7 is set to.

[Oddworld]

I'm talking about plugging it into the back so that I can use the bass boost. Not the dock on top

Oddworld,
 
This would depend on how hot your source volume is. Ideally, you would set your source volume to about 80-90% of max, and then adjust the E7 volume to as high as it will go without distorting with the bass boost on.

For purely portable purposes, what's the comparison between the E5 and E7? Obviously the E7 is a DAC, but in terms of amplifying and getting better quality sounds out of my portable audio player, can I save a few bucks and get the E5 without sacrificing too much sound quality? It'll be powering some AKG 142's
