Under a 32-ohm load, the K11 is capable of pushing 1400mW under balance modes. This allows it to easily drive many hi-fi earphones and headphones to fully unlock their potential.

The K11 has three separate gain levels, each with its own volume curve. This provides a better listening experience with various types of headphones, whether you are using sensitive earphones or hard-to-drive over-ear headphones.

Within the K11's slim build lies a special audio circuit designed for great sound quality. This is backed by more than 16 low-noise LDOs for precise voltage stabilization and powered by an external 12V switching power supply. All of this leads to a purer and more robust supply of power, leading to stable high-quality audio and truly enjoyable music, all of the time.

The slim aluminum alloy body allows you to easily place the K11 anywhere, making it easier to complement the rest of your desk. Thanks to the silicone antislip pad, the K11 rests stably and firmly on your table.

A custom, high-contrast display and durable VA display allows you to easily see the sampling rate, volume, gain, or output mode with just a glance.

FiiO logo is illuminated with RGB lighting, giving you a quick way to identify the sampling rate of the current audio being played back. Six LED strips work in conjunction with a carefully placed reflective film and parts of the body designed to reflect light to make the light show uniform and elegant.

  • In the K11's minimalist design, the volume knob acts as a crucial source of total control. The K11's multifunction volume knob is used to power the device on and off, accessing menu operations, making volume adjustment, and other functions.
  • The knob is designed so that you can quickly execute various complex actions by simply pressing and turning the knob. You can also quickly switch between LO/PO modes by double-pressing the knob, making it easier for you to appropriately connect to different headphones or audio setups.

The K11 used in USB DAC mode does not require a driver on Widows 10 and above and can also be used with video game consoles such as PS5 and the Switch. Simply plug and play for worry-free usage, whether you are enjoying music or being immersed in games.

[1x USB-C ] This device is a great first step into audio for anyone looking to move beyond just plugging headphones directly into a computer. Being a combination DAC and AMP, it makes it easy, just plug it in and it works. It solved lots of the sound issues that my laptop previously had, and can drive my new headphones as well.

[384 kHz (PCM) ] I have owned the BTR5 for two years and continue to enjoy it. However, the BTR7 is an improvement in every way. It is bigger, but that is the only downside. The improved screen is very welcome because it can display the bitrate in a readable format. It is more stable when used in DAC mode. The 4.4mm Pentacon connector for balanced cables is much better than the old 2.5mm standard. Most importantly, it can drive full sized headphones properly, and it sounds great.

[9.6 x 8 x 2.4"] There are still more options with wired IEMs or headphones compared to TWS or Bluetooth headphones. Most wireless devices follow a V shaped sound signature. With more bass treated as an improvement. I like a more neutral sound signature as it works with wider range of uses, not just music that benefits from more bass. BTR15 lets me choose from a wider selection of options.

[2.065 lb] Small, yet powerful. Bass boost and gain work as advertised. Doesn't heat up. Comfortably drives my headphones between 11 and 1.

On some Rock/Metal songs with boost and gain, some vocals and distorted guitars will become indistinguishable.

With boost and gain nearly all EDM and Pop are sublime.

All of this is through Hifiman Edition XS.
I own and have compared this to both the Fiio BTR 7 and Shanling H2.

Having purchased this i see no need to purchase any other Ifi product

[1x USB-C ] Supports my wired cans on my next phone. Sometimes the software pairing fails and it almost seems that the direction of the usb plug matters (how can this be). But software is nice and sounds great.

[Single Channel] I replaced a FiiO K5 model with this device. Newer chip, additional services and improvements in outputs and user interface. PRE and LO options can be selected for line output when used with amplifiers. Balanced connector for an even more precise music experience. Impressive external appearance.
A higher experience and quality for listening to music.

[9.6 x 8 x 2.4"] The iFi hip-dac 3 is an exceptional portable DAC/amp that delivers a warm, rich sound profile perfect for audiophiles on the go. Its ability to produce a full-bodied sound with deep, impactful bass and smooth mids makes it a standout choice for those who appreciate a lush, immersive listening experience. The warm tonal quality enhances vocals and instruments, giving them a natural and engaging presence that draws you into the music.

One of the hip-dac 3's most impressive features is its powerful amplification. Despite its compact size, this device can drive demanding headphones with ease, delivering loud, distortion-free audio that remains clear and dynamic even at higher volumes. Whether you're using high-impedance headphones or sensitive in-ear monitors, the hip-dac 3 ensures you get the best possible performance.

[Single Channel] This is the first DAC I have ever owned and used. I regularly pair it up with my Sennheiser 560s and Sony XM5s and there is definitely a huge difference with and without it. The Q3s give off a clearer sound. I notice a lot when it comes to songs with a lot of bass where previously they sounded a bit muddy but with the Q3 there was a texture to it.
My only complaint I have is the USBC cable being one direction. It is a little bit of a nitpick but I always plug in to charge it into my computer and I spend the next 10 minutes trying to figure out why it isn’t working only to realise I plugged the cable in the wrong way. Honestly, I just found a short usbc cable on best buy and use that instead.
Overall, it’s a great product. The price in my opinion is worth it because there really is a big difference.

[9.6 x 8 x 2.4"] Bought to replace an older, cheaper DAC/AMP I'd gotten for around $40. The K11 works wonderfully for all the headphones I've got (Takstar Pro 82, Hifiman HE4xx, Phillips SHP 9500S mainly), and has a wide array of features as well. Getting to updating the firmware is a must however, as there are some quirks that the K11 has on its stock firmware that disrupt the listening experience. Thankfully firmware updates aren't terribly painful, though it took some digging to find proper instructions. Once that was settled, it worked beautifully though! Great looking, well functioning buy for those who are looking around this price point.
