@E1-AKG, the pre-order how long does it take usually to arrive? i might grab one

thanks 4 that info, will pm him shortly. daym, the size really identical to fuze

design wise, the input/output is placed inline with volume controller which, for me, is pocket/pouch friendly not to mention LOD friendly also

nghhh....

received oso

gonna post pic later

the performance out of the box WOWOWOW. lul. sorri ClieOS steal ur line.

its been 3 days, my 20+ hours impression:

test rig: sansa Fuze v2 + upocc silver LOD by i_djoel2000 + fiio E11

I have 3 iems and 1 headphones at disposal (+1 at my gf):
IEM: UE TF10vi, Hippo VB, Meelectonic M11p+
Headphone: senn HD555.

Songs used:
as i'm a metal songs fan, this impression maybe bias on others:
Agahodaimon - Winterchild (Main)
Children of bodom - trashed lost and strungout (highs/speed attack)
Epica - Fools of damnation (harmony/soundstage)
Lenka - Everything at once (vocal) <-- this is pop song, metal song usually lacks of vocal clarity

SQ:
The gain is and the EQ switch is fun to play with. generally most phones got wider soundstage on gain and extra bass punch added. mids & highs are notably improved on iems but not much on HD555 maybe due to the low current mode.

i cannot agree less with ClieOS for the nature of the amp; quite neutral, unless the EQ switch is turned up to level 2.


Vocal:
crispy clear and seems tad a little brighter for my TF10, but i enjoy that. not that it matters much in metal songs.

Sibilant:
nothing to note on this. my phones are not naturally reeks of sibilance. hissing? barely noticeable, even on stop playing + 30% volume

Well, this oughta stop me from upgrading for the time being, next stop maybe 2050mah batt used by sifu ClieOS
i got a D10 cobra but comparison with E11 seems unjust, sorry for a nooby impression

Nah



From Top: My phone (HTC TP2), FiiO E11 & Sansa Fuze V2

Dont they look alike with the same color theme?



portable listening rig in action

u still want the mic function?

i cant imagine how you utilize the mic while hooking it up to any amp bigger than fiio E3/E5

i also agree with bro calmshot. get urself an audiophile iem before thinking of amping it

doing a personal favor for bro E1-AKG. impression using AIAIAI TMA-1:

this can was utilized by my gf (around 50+ hours of usage)

EQ:
the gain was spectacular! these cans can cope the speed of tiny double pedal beat with good precision and details. highs improved well on first EQ, soundstage widen more and piercing highs on second stage of eq. the brightness of second eq flip might irritates those loving trance and disco beat.

mids are not the strength of dj monitoring headphones, but the amp does squeeze enough mids for bassheads. for me? no. no no no no noooooooo . dont hate me for thr honest opinion

vocal:
vocals are clear, vocal-music separation also improve maybe due to soundstage widening. this makes pop song more attractive

sibilant:
too little too notice. hissings also same

note: the second eq makes tma-1 shining so bright that i can only bear 2 songs before needing a break. first EQ is fine. below is the setup picture:
