DESCRIPTION
FIIO INTRODUCES THE K9 EQUIPPED WITH A DUAL ESS SABRE CHIP FOR PRISTINE AUDIO
FiiO has recently launched its top-of-the-line desktop DAC and Amplifier, the K9, which comes packed with cutting-edge features and the finest components. The K9 houses dual ES9068AS DAC chips from ESS Sabre, which are high-performance DAC chips that excel in decoding high-resolution audio signals and support various digital filters. With this state-of-the-art DAC chipset, the K9 delivers an exceptional audio performance that is free from any distortions or noise, ensuring a clean and transparent sound output.
HIGHLY CAPABLE THX AAA 788+ AMPLIFIER CIRCUIT DELIVERING CLEAN OUTPUT POWER
The FiiO K9 is a powerful DAC and Amplifier that features the highly capable THX AAA 788+ Amplifier Circuit, delivering a clean output power. It can amplify a wide range of headphones with ease, whether low or high impedance. The K9 comes equipped with THX AAA 788+ chips that provide excellent detail and dynamics and can output up to 780mW at 300 Ohms and 2000mW at 32 Ohms. With this amplifier circuit, you can experience undistorted power output of 1%, which is remarkable.
FULLY BALANCED DESIGN WITH SIX-STAGE CIRCUITRY AND PARTITIONED LAYOUT
The K9 is designed to provide exceptional audio performance, and to achieve this, it utilises a fully balanced design. This design helps reduce interference between different components, preserving all the details and dynamic range in music for an unparalleled audio experience. Additionally, it features a six-stage audio circuitry to ensure top-quality sound performance. The digital and analogue circuits are separated by partitions, allowing clean and unobstructed audio performance. This partitioned layout also separates the power supply, audio signals and analogue signal loops, ensuring the audio output is clean and pristine.
FAST AND RELIABLE HI-RES BLUETOOTH CONNECTIVITY WITH DUAL CLOCK MANAGEMENT
The FiiO K9 features the latest Bluetooth technology to provide Hi-Res quality audio wirelessly, and the device employs the Qualcomm QCC 5124 to handle Bluetooth connectivity with various formats such as AAC, SBC, LDAC, aptX, aptX LL, aptX HD and aptX Adaptive. This chip guarantees reliable and speedy Bluetooth connections that satisfy low latency needs for games/videos and high bitrates for high-resolution audio. The K9 also incorporates a precise and stable dual-mode clock management system for playing Hi-Res audio with lifelike fidelity. The device can support high-res 32-Bit/768kHz PCM and native DSD512 decoding.
ADVANCED POWER DELIVERY SYSTEM WITH MULTIPLE LDO’S FOR LINEAR TRANSMISSION
The FiiO K9 comes with a highly regarded linear power supply that provides ample clean power to the entire system. It has a low-frequency transformer and four large 4700uF capacitors that ensure that the rest of the system gets enough power. The digital and analogue portions of the K9 receive power separately to prevent audio interference between the two circuits. Every stage of the audio circuitry employs ultra-low-noise LDO for voltage regulation. To ensure a clean power supply, the K9 has a total of 18 LDOs. Furthermore, the K9 features three intelligent protection systems that protect against overheating, overload, and DC.
THREE-WAY GAIN SETTINGS WITH ACCURATE VOLUME ADJUSTMENTS BASED ON ADC CURVE
The FiiO K9 allows you to adjust the gain settings to your preference, with options of high, medium, and low. The pure hardware gain circuit ensures that the audio quality remains optimal even when using high-sensitivity headphones on low-gain settings. The volume knob of the K9 utilises the ADC curve reconstruction method for precise volume adjustment, resulting in minimal noise and left-right channel volume imbalances. This feature allows for smooth and consistent changes in volume across all levels.
MULTIPLE CONNECTIVITY PORTS HOUSED IN A ELEGANT AND DURABLE ALUMINIUM CHASSIS
The FiiO K9 has a simple yet attractive black all-aluminium exterior that is strong and gives a high-end feel. The controls are well-arranged and easy to understand, ensuring easy operation of the device. The K9 also provides multiple connectivity options, making it convenient to use. The front panel includes XLR-4Pin, 4.4mm Balanced, and 6.35mm Single-Ended headphone outputs, while the rear panel features a 4.4mm Balanced Line In, Coaxial, Optical, RCA, and XLR outputs, which makes it easy to connect external amplifiers and speakers. Furthermore, the K9 supports UAC 1.0 and UAC 2.0 modes for plug-and-play connectivity.
ELEGANT USER INTERFACE WITH DEDICATED APP AND METAL SWITCHES TO CONTROL FEATURES
The FiiO K9 includes a dedicated app that lets you manage various aspects of the device. Using the app, you can adjust EQ profiles and also use the PEQ (Parametric EQ) feature. Additionally, the built-in Bluetooth technology allows you to control functions like channel balance and sleep timer using the FiiO Control App, even when not in Bluetooth mode. The volume knob features RGB indicator lights that change depending on the current playing sampling rate. Furthermore, the FiiO K9 comes bundled with a custom stand that reduces its desktop footprint while improving heat dissipation through convection, making the stand functional and visually appealing.
