I would like to try these if possible. I wonder.
It will take longer for the RHA official tour.
I was impressed by fiio amps at headphone connect. So decided to pick a fiio e09k from headphonezone on ebay. I preffered old fiio sound, and these may be last few as new e9 seems to be in works. So, pleased with purchase. Lets see how their desktop component sounds.
That's great Vaibhav, I'd like to try out my E07k, currently lying unused, decked onto the E09k. Headfonia had posted a very positive review indeed on the pairing:

Sure. I am pretty sure it will be improvement over internal amp ok e07k as well as my audinst.
That's what I'm hoping for, and that means we're in for a really wonderful sounding setup.
i am wondering how close will it get to deckard in terms of detail. if it falls way short, it will be disappointing.
Whoa, I don't really think we should expect Deckard-level performance from the humble FiiO combo, my friend!
I seriously doubt it. But I do believe our setup should come close to the performance of a potent mid tier desktop setup, both in terms of power and quality.
And I shouldn't comment much further, as I'm yet to listen to a top end desktop setup.
Now I'm sure that I'll book a demo listening session with Headphone Zone if I'm anywhere in their vicinity, and compare the Deckard at peace. Only then can one truly gauge the potential of these top tier devices, IMO.
Vandal,
does the Audio GD DAC you have have the Sabre chip?
damn. headphone zone does not have e09k in stock.
i wonder why it is listed on ebay. hope i get refund. had bad experiences on previous purchases on ebay.
