What customers say about "Key Specs"

Fiio E7 USB DAC and Portable Headphone Amplifier

Its serves well as on outboard DAC for computers and other sources able to output digital stream to the FiiO.
For the most part, this amp does what it says it does. It does sound very good!
As for the actual sound quality, using it as a DAC from my Macbook Pro and hooking a pair of AKG K240 and I was really pleased with the outcome.
Worried wouldn't be loud enough but it's great. Highly recommend.
The FiiO E7 is a vast improvement over my ThinkPad's internal sound card. The sound has more texture, more detail, better bass and greater openness.

Fiio E07K Andes USB DAC and Portable Headphone Amplifier Black

Note one side of this is an amp and the other a DAC. The DAC translated your music to your headphones. Amp this side just make big sound. Perfect.
Great portable DAC that will work with your smartphone and sound great with a pair of nice headphones, you can't beat this thing for the price.
LOVE THIS AMP! This is seriously a great piece of kit for the money. I use it as a desktop unit at work.
This DAC is worth every penny. It is a serious upgrade to your computers sound card and opens up a whole new world of music.
However there is a big really annoying problem with it. It make a really irritating hissing sound.

What customers say about "Size & Weight"

Fiio E7 USB DAC and Portable Headphone Amplifier

Compact, stylish & functional is what the FiiO E7 is all about.
Fit and sizes of the unit itself is fantastic. The presentation was also awesome. It comes in a small white box, clearly styled after the iPhone packaging.
This is a great little device. For the money, FiiO seems to treat you very well.
Size wise, it's about the size of a portable mp3 player. Pretty compact and comfortable in use.
It's made for the total product quality, but the size is little bit larger than the X series of Sony Walkman.

Fiio E07K Andes USB DAC and Portable Headphone Amplifier Black

The Fiio is small and lite, the size of let's say a bit smaller that a box playing cards.
Good sound ,very flexible in its uses. Battery last forever. Perect size for LG phones with power and volume buttons on the back.
The portability is good cause its small and very light weight but I'm not fan of the rubber bands they give you to keep the amp.
This small, portable USB DAC provides a great improvement in sound over the sound card in the computers I use, and for my HTC phone.
The size, although still somewhat small, is larger than I would have liked.

What customers say about "Features"

Fiio E7 USB DAC and Portable Headphone Amplifier

The E7 also has a line level input. The main reason for most people to use the E7 as a headphone amp.
I would also like to talk about the OLED display. It is real functional and looks great.
There's only 4 buttons, and it's easy to navigate the menus. I do like the OLED display a lot.
There's no way to shut off the display when it's not in use. This unnecessary battery drain problem though.
The specs say that the internal lithium ion battery will provide 80 hours of use. I get about 5 hours at an average volume of only about half of max volume.

Fiio E07K Andes USB DAC and Portable Headphone Amplifier Black

I first listened to Jewel, her new greatest hits in FLAC. The bass was not overwhelming or distorted the highs were crisp not tinny. Beautiful sound.
Movies come to life as this DAC works its magic to make me believe what is happening on screen, magic features.
Works great as a portable DAC on my Macbook Pro. It also works very well with my phone and iPod (yes I still use an iPod).
I have also used the FiiO EO7K via USB on my Windows laptop and with the headphone jack of my iPhone and android tablet. I recommend!
At home I use the Fiio on the PS3 via RCA. On the PS3 it does not send the music or background audio through the USB.
