5 out of 5 stars   E6 FiiO Headphone Amp.

Review submitted for FiiO E6 Portable Headphone Amplifier (FIIOE6)
Pros: I love it, light weight, you can carry around a power bank to keep it charged. It allows you to use cleaner power at higher volumes than a phone or MP3 player puts out. When you crank them up, they are probably putting out a good deal of distortion, which raises havoc with speakers. Now you can keep the phone volume down some and compensate with the amp. I have also used it as a pre-amp for a tablet to a unit that only had RCA jack inputs. Say a MP3 player, Tablet, phone to a older Receiver that has no inputs for these newer gadgets. Get a 1/8 stereo mini plug that Y's out into a Left and Right RCA plug, plug those into the CD inputs on the back of the receiver (never use the phono RCA inputs!!!!!!!) Turn the volume up part way on the MP3 player, Turn on and up the E6 volume (which is acting as a preamp of sorts) and Turn on and up the volume a little while on the CD button picked and you should be able to hear your devices and then get a little more volume out of them on that lovable old receiver, when before you couldn't. It may not be perfect, but it works, and with 3 older non digital amps in the house I'm glad I was able to find a way to make a connection and play my tunes on house speakers. It also helps with the high fidelity Headphones that have high impedence, you can get a little more clean sound and volume with the E^
Cons: None, other than I heard they stopped making them, but I can't swear to it and I really wonder why, unless it's to market their more robust headphone amps.

Pros: Small! Easy to hide away with earbuds in case you forget your good headphones and other stuff!
Cons: It is what it is for the price, but it does improve quality!

4 out of 5 stars   Fixes the cell phone problem
By Da Yooper on July 12, 2015
Review submitted for FiiO E6 Portable Headphone Amplifier (FIIOE6)
Pros: I hate cell phones. Yah, I'm getting to be an old fart. OK - They interrupt you when you are busy and they have no signal when you need them. So - what's this got to do with the product. Well, I've loaded many gigabytes of old Rock'n'Roll tunes on my phone. I like to listen to it on my headphones and in the car. My cell phone (Moto G) does not have enough output (gain) to play the tunes without problems. This little amp solves that problem. It's pretty easy to use, easy to charge and easy to carry. It is not a great encumbrance to the portability of the phone. (Oh yeh - that's another thing I hate about cell phones, they don't fit in my pants pockets with keys and change) The battery seems to go at least 4 hours on a full charge and it lets me play my tunes. I've only had it for a month so I can not speak to the longevity of the product. To use Frank Lloyd Wright's cliche, "Form follows function." It does the specified job to which it is intended. - Have a Nice Day-
Cons: It's small, light so easy to lose and maybe step on. I've been trying to think of a way to attach this to my cell phone, maybe velcro so that I don't have to keep track of it.
Other Comments: This is an example of a niche market. I looked for a product that did this in Best Buy, Thrifty Acres and Radio Shack with no luck. I thought of building one with Op Amps. Makes me wonder what other niche markets there are out there for cell phones.

Review submitted for FiiO E6 Portable Headphone Amplifier (FIIOE6)
Pros: inexpensive, compaact
Cons: layout of controls, no indication of volume level

5 out of 5 stars   Fiio E-06
By Red Drew on May 08, 2015
Review submitted for FiiO E6 Portable Headphone Amplifier (FIIOE6)
Pros: Good sound and excellent volume range. I use this small amplifier to be ableto hear music or videos on airplanes, where louder volume is necessry to drown out the jet engine noise. Also very good battery life.
Cons: N O N E

4 out of 5 stars   portability vs. power
March 01, 2015
Review submitted for FiiO E6 Portable Headphone Amplifier (FIIOE6)
Pros: small form factor, portable.
Cons: power is obviously not the greatest, but it does amplify sufficiently as long as your source isn't too soft.
Other Comments: I decided to purchase the E12 as well for the extra power.

5 out of 5 stars   Great little lightweight amp...
By DaveI on December 15, 2014
Review submitted for FiiO E6 Portable Headphone Amplifier (FIIOE6)
Pros: Adds power, increased bass and impact. Easy to use, multiple sound settings. Lightweight. Perfect complement to an Ipod Nano.
Cons: Really for the price there's not much to knock...I would have like to have seen a simple removable battery that could be changed easily. [...]
Other Comments: If you want a small and compact amp for your MP3 player you can't do much better than this...You can get higher quality more power amps but this will do the job for most and it's tiny and inexpensive.

4 out of 5 stars   Not the typical user
By Mike on November 18, 2014
Review submitted for FiiO E6 Portable Headphone Amplifier (FIIOE6)
Pros: Small size, good sound reproductions (I like the middle setting the best) and so far seems reliable (in use for about 1 week).
Cons: Doesn't seem to hold the volume from one day to the next but it is not a big issue since I adjust the setting two or three times per night depending on the show.
Other Comments: I purchased this amplifier to attach to my new Panasonic TV to power headphones. My new TV only has a digital audio output and it was expensive to connect to headphones. Also many of the reviewers using the digital output commented that there was a time delay between the audio and the video (like a old Kung Fu movie was one reviewers comment). I decided to go with a wired headset connected to the RCA output jacks on my cable box. I had to have an amplifier to increase the volume. After looking at reviews and options the FiiO E6 was my best choice. I connected the amplifier to my cable box audio output RCA jacks with a converter cable and connected the amplifier to a USB port on the cable box and leave it plugged in all the time. I turn the amplifier off when I am not using it. I used an extension 3.5 mm cable to connect to the headphones. It was easy to set up, the controls are intuitive and although they are labeled the buttons are very small (after all the unit itself is very small).

Review submitted for FiiO E6 Portable Headphone Amplifier (FIIOE6)
Pros: Tiny, Works as stated
Cons: None so far
Other Comments: I found this on sale and based on the reviews, took a chance. I'm no audiophile but this amp does what it needs to do. The sound is amplified with not much loss in quality. It also looks pretty cook and will fit in the palm of your hand.

4 out of 5 stars   Fios E6 Small in size large in sound
By Amplover on September 19, 2013
Verified Purchase
Review submitted for FiiO E6 Portable Headphone Amplifier (FIIOE6)
Pros: Battery lasts a long time, Product works well, Easy to operate
Cons: Instructions terrible
Other Comments: I use the amplifier on my Nexus 7 (2013). The speakers are too low. The Fios really boosts the volume and the sound quality is clean and crisp. I use it mainly for audio books and podcasts. One caution: the instruction manual is terrible. I had to go on line and read reviews to learn how to turn it on and use the various equalizers.

5 out of 5 stars   Video camera headphone booster
By Charles Cheesman on September 19, 2013
Verified Purchase
Review submitted for FiiO E6 Portable Headphone Amplifier (FIIOE6)
Pros: Small, Low Cost
Cons: Manual
Other Comments: The primary use was to be able to use headphones to monitor audio input of a video camera - Camera output was too low to be useful and it worked perfect for that. Documentation is poor. Would be nice to know a little more about the equalizer function.

4 out of 5 stars   great product at great price
By boris the blade on September 17, 2013
Verified Purchase
Review submitted for FiiO E6 Portable Headphone Amplifier (FIIOE6)
Pros: Works Great With 50 Ohm, Charge While Playing
Cons: Confusing Settings, Mini Usb Charger
Other Comments: Sounds great, I use it at my desk at work while listening to my Sennheiser 558 or 518s - both 50 ohm. You can charge this while you use it, which is fantastic. It is a little disappointing that it uses mini usb instead of the new cell-phone standard micro usb, so I'll have to bring an extra cable with me when I travel with it. Has 4 settings as well, but no real indication of which setting does what, although the light shines a different color for each setting. I probably just haven't learned them yet. The size of this is great too, it's tiny and comes with a few belt clips.
