FULL PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

FiiO E5 Description

FiiO E5 Portable Headphone Amplifier in Black. The World's smallest metal case headphone amplifier improves sound quality and volume of your mobile digital audio equipment.  Most commonly, headphone amplifiers are found embedded in electronic devices such as integrated amplifiers, portable music players and televisions. These amplifier outputs can lack power and result in loss of sound quality.  Now FiiO introduces the E5 headphone amplifier as a pocket sized remedy designed to enhance your sound experience on-the-go.  With the FiiO E5 you can ensure you are getting the best out of your portable audio setup.  

The most practical and portable headphone amp around

TrustedReviews.com

FiiO E5's sound signature adds depth to the bass and enhances detail of trebles; it boosts the volume and makes it even clearer, making the E5 a worthy upgrade to your mobile audio system.

Improved in many aspects, the E5 follows the worldwide success of the innovative E3 budget headphone amp. Upgraded in all the key areas to guarantee a brilliant audio signal and with a new sleek design to suit the latest mobile audio players.

Simply connect the FiiO E5 between your portable audio device and headphones for the ultimate mobile listening experience. With the integrated volume and bass boost buttons you will have full control of your sound and the built-in metal clip allows you to attach the E5 to anything. What's more, the FiiO E5 also reduces battery drain on portable devices, which means you can enjoy your music for longer.

FiiO E5 is a power amplifier and goes by many names such as mini amplifier, headphone booster, headphone amplifier or speaker amplifier.

Whatever you want to call it, let FiiO enhance your sound, your music, your soul.

FiiO E5 Reviews

TrustedReviews.com - Awarded 'TrustedReviews Recommended' Seal

 TrustedReviews.com Recommends FiiO E5

"The output seems cleaner and brighter, with a pleasant, rich tone in the mid and upper range. Sound is much richer and more lively than it was, and the results with classical music are nigh on dazzling."

"Solid audio output for such a ludicrously cheap headphone amp. While your mileage will vary depending on your 'phones, its well worth giving the E5 a try if you find your existing setup lacks power."

TechPowerUp Review of FiiO E5 - 9.5/10

TechPowerUp Review of FiiO E5 – 9.5/10

"If you are looking for a warm and cozy sounding amplifier you should definitely consider the E5; add the fact that it has an integrated Li-ion battery that can be charged through a mini-USB cable and you have quite a nice package."

GoodGearGuide FiiO E5 Review - 4.5/5

 GoodGearGuide FiiO E5 Review – 4.5/5

"For the price, there is nothing that can beat the E5's sound-boosting capabilities. For such a small device to add a significant amount of bass and have such a long battery life is very impressive indeed."

Good but didn't survive

I bought this good amp together with an AKG K-171 MKII Headphone to use with my ipod touch. You notice an increase in volume and better bass and treble but it seems like it wasn't powerful enough to drive those headphones. The increase in volume was a noticeable 15%, none the less, i kept on using it for about 2-3months, then came the tears, IT DIED. For some reason it wouldn't power up unless i plug it into a USB port on my Mac, and when it powers up, it would not power off. I would have to leave it on till it runs down, and in a week or so it gave up completely. I wonder if the AKG headphones killed it or it wasn't durable enough, i wonder this because when i plug in the AKG directly into my ipod touch they work, then after a week to two weeks, the headphone socket of the ipod breaks and i would have to get apple to replace it, i replaced about 5 ipod touch, however the ipod touch alway work fine except the headphone socket which start get touchy. Apple tells me that the AKG's socket is too fat and the ipod touch is too slim so any slight bump causes it to break. Possible that this might be what killed this cute little amp. I want to buy another one now but i am wondering if it will survive the AKG... yes i know i am stubborn...lol... but i love those headphones... so clean and neat.

GOLD 5 STAR AMP

This little, & I mean tiny, Headphone amp is a revelation. The sound quality is so good it is well worth the money. It sounds as good as amps costing 5 times its price. The nearest is the ibasso T4 costing nearly £100. I have done away with the 3.5-3.5mm cables that came with the E5 and have replaced then with one 0.5 m Atlas 3.5-3.5mm interconnect cable & the result is 5 star portable audio sound quality from my ipod classic. The build quality is also very good. The amp is housed in a metal case with a clip on the back so you can just clip it onto pretty much anything you like. Superb! just buy one you can't go wrong!!
