Those who have been following the X7 thread on Head-fi may have noticed my rather strongly opinionated first impressions of the device, so this time round I will attempt to exercise more, umm, diplomacy. They want users to give their honest opinions, and I respect that greatly. What I particularly like about taking part in these world tours with Fiio is the fact that they don’t try to sensor the reviews. I think it’s a great concept to allow people to review upcoming products and it is indeed quite exciting to take part in. This is the second time I’m takin part in a Fiio world tour, the first having been with the X3 Gen 2.
Again, to each their own and there’s no right or wrong way. Unless I can hear a clear difference between different setups, I see no point in spending extra cash on something which is “technically better”, but doesn’t add to my experience in reality. Some people will get that and some won’t, but nobody is right or wrong either way it’s all a matter of taste.īut, I’m also on a sensible budget. I want to hear what the artist wanted to portray, not to do their job for them and try to make the music better. I wouldn’t go out and buy a painting, and then decide “you know what this needs? More blue”.and then proceed to make my own adjustments. This means that my setup needs to be as neutral as possible, to not emphasize or depreciate, to not add nor take away any of the sounds. Whilst I fully understand some (perhaps most) people generally only listen to one or a few genres, it makes sense for them to get an audio setup which complements the music the listen to.īut when you’re looking to get the purest sound, it’s a whole other ball-game. My taste reaches far and wide, everything from jazz to classical, hip-hip to rock, acoustic to RnB. By that I mean my aim is to listen to the music the way it was intended pure and unadulterated. If I had to describe my taste in music, I guess I’d say that I’m an audio purist. So, before I dive into the review, let me give you a little background info on myself as to better understand what it is that I look for and what my position on the X7 is. And this is where I feel the amp modules will be of the greatest interest…the ability to cater to your specific sound signature requirements whether this be to offset the signature of your cans, or to simply get a specific type of sound which complements the listener’s taste in music. Often I see people on forums asking about this or that amp, and it would seem that most of the time the recommendations tends to focus on the power output often forgotten is the impact that an amp will have on the sound signature.
You see, in a perfect world an amp would only be there to provide varying levels of power output…but this is the real world, where few things are quite so black and white. Here Fiio has tried something different, allowing users to swap out amp modules in order to drive more power-hungry cans, and, of course, make some adjustments to the sound signature. This is not your usual run-of-the-mill DAC chip, this thing is desktop grade hardware, and is well revered for its audio quality.īut perhaps the most interesting concept is the amp-module.

This beauty runs Android (a first for Fiio) and is equipped with some very interesting features.įirst there is the ESS9019 DAC chip made by Sabre.
This is now their flagship device and a whole new beast at that.

Following on from quite a line of portable and desktop audio devices, Fiio has now released the X7.
