I've had my eye on this DAC/amp combo for while and now it seems like its disappearing of amazon and every other seller. Anyone know if its gonna be discontinued??

 

[abdias286]

Disregard! I emailed FiiO they said they're making an E10k that's supposed to come out mid 2014.

Thanks for finding out about that, I was curious too. I wonder if the components will be upgraded? If so I'll definitely buy one assuming it's not priced higher than the E10 was

 

[abdias286]

You're welcome. I asked them those same questions and they couldn't answer me all they said was:

"Thanks for your mail and support to FiiO!

Kindly inform you that, the E10K still in developing phase, the detailed function can't be confirmed yet now. But we can confirm it is more reliable than E10."

I hope its the same price or even lower. Even more bang for your buck!

 

[Gregory_WE]

Yes definitely, that's their key point in the market -- that it's good performance wise for the cost. If the price goes up it's not such an easy choice.

Sucks I own 2 E10s, One with a mild issue and one with a larger issue...   Wonder if I can send both back and get one E10K when they come out?

 

[abdias286]

Maybe.. Try emailing them and tell them your situation. Quick question though, why didn't you request an RMA or whatever when you got your e10s?

 

[Gregory_WE]

The store I bought it from (BuyDig) said they don't have any sort of RMA agreement set up w/ Fiio. It's strange because they're listed as an authorized reseller. So anyways after talking with both them and Fiio, the only way I could get it repaired under warranty was to ship it to China

Thanks for the info. I've been looking for the E10 as well and can't find it anywhere. I still haven't heard anything about the E10K either. Hopefully soon.
