Just got mine, I have 30 minutes of testing it with the TRN Conch, in a Redmi Note 9 & MSI GF75 Thin 9SC laptop, bought it for 7 dollars, is my first Dongle Dac, sounds great for a 30 mW... Im looking forword for the Fiio KA13 (550mW)
Just a heads up if anyone reads this: DO NOT UPDATE TO VERSION 1.9 IN THE FIIO CONTROL APP!! It will brick your JA11 dongle. I tried updating in the app, and it didn't work. I cancelled the update, but it bricked the dongle and now it isn't recognized by my phone nor PC anymore.
@@PortaFiI am considering to buy a dongle for my moondrop chu ii and kz zsn pro 2! I already have one apple lightning connector! But I was looking for a type c one! Shall i go with the fiio one or apple one
Hello, can you review audiocular d07 ? Its seems it is another decent dac+amp with 65mW output at 32ohm ? It will help people starting out (like me ). Thanks
Any idea which chip is inside this DAC is it Conexant or something else? and does it support TRRS ? meaning earphones with microphone integrated to take skype or zoom calls?
The name of the chip isn't mentioned it's just written integrated chip in the specs. For all we know is its frequency response range which is 20Hz~50,000Hz and its output Power.
I have one it is comparable to the Sound Blaster Play 3 these two are the best of the inexpensive dongles I've tried. I happen to prefer the Sound Blaster which doesn't get any love not sure why.
привіт, чудовий огляд! Чи працює він із айфоном якщо використати через lightning-usb-c перехідник? В теорії можна було б на андроїді налаштувати peq разово і використовувати із цими налаштуваннями на айфоні. Дякую
@@PortaFi I actually conacted fiio on this one and they told me that it's 20Hz~50,000Hz. They officialy sell this on AliExpress and it was mentioned there as well
@@gurniwazsingh2434hello bro, how is the experience with this one! M looking for something to use both on my android and ios! Shall i go with this one?
Pavo, thank you for reviewing accessories, and not only major items like ear/headphones, digital audio players and amplifiers!
My pleasure!

Us the PEQ setting saved on the dongle itself? Meaning i can set with the app and uninstall forever?
yes, it's saved on the dongle. not sure about "forever", but at least when I plug-unplug them for tests :)
@@PortaFiso can i plug them to my android save the eq and then plug to my ios and will the eq be saved on the dongle?
@@vibewithankit yes

thank you for sharing, we'll wait for FiiO's answer
update 2.0 has already been released fixing the problem. It has to be done on the computer
@@gabrielgrdamascohow do you do it on the pc?
nice my apple dongle is starting to wear so this seems like a great replacement
It really is!

@@vibewithankit I'd get this one, as it supports eq which is a nice feature to have

Hello, I'll try to get it for review, but I'm not sure if I'll manage to get it
It didn't come with usb adapter?
no, at least mine came without it
Any idea which chip is inside this DAC is it Conexant or something else? and does it support TRRS ? meaning earphones with microphone integrated to take skype or zoom calls?
No, I don't know what chip is used here. As for inline microphone, specs say it's supported, so yes, it should work
The name of the chip isn't mentioned it's just written integrated chip in the specs. For all we know is its frequency response range which is 20Hz~50,000Hz and its output Power.
does it work with Samsung phones ? specifically the S24
I didn't have any Samsung phone, so I don't know
which 1 better? this fio or jcally jm6 pro, they got same price? noob here never bought any of this before, anyone can help?
Haven't test JCally, sorry
@@PortaFi alright, thx bro
Maybe we'll hear something soon about the Fiio K11 *R2R* 🤗
I hope so… Official announce should be soon, and it looks quite exciting
i heard the venture audio odo is the best for the price can you review it plz
I've ordered it once, but post lost it :) Maybe I'll order it once again
The most interesting Dongle DAC from FiiO over the past years considering the price
Parametric EQ is a hot topic )))
What's the output voltage? Does this have more than Apple dongle (1V)?
Don't know, I don't think it has much more then 1V, but it's just my assumption
I have one it is comparable to the Sound Blaster Play 3 these two are the best of the inexpensive dongles I've tried. I happen to prefer the Sound Blaster which doesn't get any love not sure why.
Never had a chance to try SoundBlaster device (except of SB Live! I owned long time ago), but SB Play 4 with USB C looks interesting

не знаю, не перевіряв.
How much bitrate(kbps) does it support??
official specs says 32BIT/384kHz
What is the frequency response range of this dac?
Spec-wise it's 20Hz - 20 000Hz
@@PortaFi I actually conacted fiio on this one and they told me that it's 20Hz~50,000Hz. They officialy sell this on AliExpress and it was mentioned there as well
@@PortaFiActually i emailed and asked straight away from fiio about this, the actual frequency response range is 20Hz~50,000Hz
Vs the VE Odo?
never tested it
Hows the mic control
Supported
Does it sound better too you then the Apple dongle?
yes, a bit better, but this thing's main feature is PEQ
@@PortaFi Then I am definitely going to check that thing out, Thanks and wish you have a great day!
@@rickelijah4270 thank you! Have a good day too!
Caps out at 24bit 48khz?
Spec-wise it supports signal up to DSD128 and 32/384, but it's making zero sense here
What is that gigantic player you are using?
It's FiiO M17, it's huge, it's expensive, but it's one of the best sounding (relatively) portable devices that exists
@@PortaFi Amazing, I'm in love with it
I got noise when used it on my iphone
It is a common problem and was fixed in an update
@@gurniwazsingh2434hello bro, how is the experience with this one! M looking for something to use both on my android and ios! Shall i go with this one?
Doesn't work with OnePlus 11.
Or Samsung S22 Ultra.
Works with my s22, try turning on usb debugging in developer settings
thx man
which chip inside?
I don't know, probably some not widely known chip
Vs KA11?
Haven't test KA11
KA11 is much much powerful and more detailed
@@malfuaditya but also much more power hungry and warms up much more
