D series: Consumer series
E series: Audiophile series

D3: DAC only. (Input: Coaxial/Optical; Output: Analog via RCA)

D5: DAC and a relatively low-powered@quality amp; though in a way this is already an entry lvl sound card since it has a mic-in as well. Reportedly to be more or less the same as regular on-board. (Input: USB, mic; Output: 3.5mm headphone-out & line-out, coaxial)

E10: DAC/AMP combo. (Input: USB; Output: 3.5mm headphone-out & line-out, coaxial)
The thing that *you should buy if SQ is your main concern.

consider my govibe usb dac

did i heard "my"?


but yeah, E series or t-Muso anytime

someone taking a liking on E10 eh, i see~

you'll wake up in the evening, and a postman came handing you a parcel, while you already got scissors in your hand ready to open it

not even arrive yet my e10

Tomorrow will arrive

Chillax bro

so should i get the fiio e10 or the asus xonar dg? dfi onboard sound is really2 bad.

How's the SQ and the signature

hello guys long time never popped up here

anyhows any of guys can comment on any standalone dac or portable amp/dac package. id have a figaro dy just wan a dac.

anywan tried corda 2MOVE?? or ibasso d4

whats your budget?

less rm 600-700 nw, considering cn get either a d4 $150usd or ones lesser than 200$

frankly, since you have no amp right now, get TTD. a good 24/96 dac with a very nice tube amp. then next time when you get your amp back, you can use TTD as a DAC and pre-amp.

but otherwise, get a basic DAC from go-vibe / hippo / ordanance / fiio. they will be an improvement over your soundcard and later on then upgrade to a desktop DAC like stageDAC / DACmagic / NFB series from Audio Gd.

Hey, I have an Audio Technica AD500. Can u guys pls reco me a good amp below RM200? Preferably can use USB as power supply, and its portable. I love listening to pop music (some bass) and vocals.

oops sry. my source is pc, laptop... or ipad (is this possible)?

Added on November 28, 2011, 1:51 pmwill e10 be too "underpowered" for AD500?

FiiO E10 but you will have to get inline for December's shipment



What is your source



Not at all. If portability is a concern with your iPad, the FiiO E7 is the way to go.

PC > USB > FiiO E7 > AD500
iPad > FiiO L3 or L9 LOD > FiiO E7 > AD500

i think i'll stick with E10, since it's the latest product and i heard many good reviews abt it.

im jz afraid it will distort the soundstage capability of my AD500. any ideas, apart from significant boost to the Bass, is there any drawbacks plugging AD500 into E10?

You can actually try out a good range of FiiO product at Tong Lee Co., located on the ground floor of Low Yat Plaza. Just lag your lappy along

Guys, which USB DAC is better? The GoVibe Mini USB DAC or T-Muso USB DAC? Want to use to replace my laptop soundcard..

^ nah. just want to know which is better if i want to buy it one day..

its hard for me to say "better", how much do you got in hands?

tested the goVibe dac and own a t-muso (OScon caps)

i could say, i prefer the goVibe dac by a slight margin,
but not soo sure since i just test the goVibe for a few minutes, couldnt say that for sure

don't go GoVibe Mini, go for my Govibe USB DAC, I'm selling cheap cheap

cn try audio-gd dac19 , or wut was it the name, hmmm, else cn try hmmm
