FiiO Shows Off Potential K7 DAC/AMP Render

Up to this point, FiiO have produced numerous portable and desktop audio products. However, as this is an expanding market, the sheer performance and quality of products being produced by competing manufacturers is ever on the rise. For a while now, FiiO have been rumoured to be working on a new desktop audio solution for some time, but now were are finally getting to see a few potential glimpses of what might be the resultant product – the K7.

In FiiO’s Head-Fi post they’ve stated “After the K3 and K5Pro went on the market, we received a lot of planning consultations about more advanced desktop DAC&AMP K7. Some people care about the performance of the amp, and others care about the extended capabilities of the product. Indeed, in these two aspects, there are still many improvements when upgrade K5Pro to K7.
In order to make products that better meet your needs , we open the plan and look forward to your feedback.

Note:This picture is onlya layout of K7 interface, not the ID concept. They’ve also gone on to describe a few possible key details about the K7:
1,K7 is not necessarily a flagship model
2,Built-in dual THX AAA AMP architecture and balanced headphone interface. Higher power output than K5 Pro
3,Xmos core, support 768k&DSD512 USB DAC and SPDIF input
4,LDAC Bluetooth receiver&BLE app control for more audio settings
5,AKM or ESS high performance audio DAC chip(TBD)

It will be interesting to see if FiiO can manage to cram so many features and functionality into the K7, as that would surely make it one of the most value-packed desktop audio solutions available on the market, and hopefully one of the best performing ones too.

Since the K7 is still in the very early stages of product design, no specific indication of when it’s expected to be released has been mentioned.
