Review on FiiO E10K USB DAC and Headphone Amplifier - Superior Black Audio Enhancement by Anastazja Simiska ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Everything in the purchase suits, a very necessary product.

It radically changes the sound of all audio devices, there is a feeling that you put on other headphones. I tested the amplifier with Audio-Technica ATH AVC500, Bowers & Wilkins C5 S2 and Marshall Mode EQ. All devices played in a completely new way, with the exception of the "Tse Fifths" - the sound obviously improved, but there was no such wow effect as with the other two devices, but here, I think, we must pay tribute to Bowers & Wilkins engineers. In general, I am satisfied with the device, I advise you to buy it.

Pros
  • Small size, portability, quality materials, reasonable price for the present functionality.
Cons
  • 1. There are no fasteners or holes for mounting the amp to anything (for example, to the bottom of the table). Thus, you will either have to collectively farm the mount or simply put it on a flat surface on which it will not be fixed in any way, which is very inconvenient for me personally. By the way, my device is attached to the table leg with Velcro strips for cable management. 2. There is no official software from the manufacturer (except, of course, drivers), which is somehow completely unacceptable in our time - even the Chinese DEXP has some kind of program. So equalizer programs, filters and the like will have to be searched and downloaded by yourself. Probably, the manufacturer implies that the buyers of such devices are familiar with the sound and already have a pre-installed pool of such software.

Little bomb. I have a monoblock Lenovo c320 i3, so the built-in sound is nothing compared to it. I use with AT ath-avc 500 at 40 ohms.
