Ah. I probably just wasn’t looking hard enough. Sorry.

Hmm. Was having a look at the Fiio website. The KA11 seems to have disappeared. It’s also gone from the UK Amazon website. Anyone else noticed this or am I just not seeing it?

If they’ve posted this on their website but are actually making them in China then this is potentially a serious violation of EU law.

Umm, these are made in France, at least according to the Focal website.

Mine was doing the same thing. It was also getting VERY hot, almost uncomfortable to touch. It would then make a pop noise and stop working. I suspect it was shutting itself down due to overheating. I reached out to Fiio customer service and they were initially quite receptive but after asking...

I’ve been looking more closely at Apollo chassis from the photo you posted. I now believe it may be a Bang & Olufsen frame. I suppose we’ll find out in due course.

Alba is also the name for Scotland in Scottish Gaelic. Am I wrong, or is the Noble Apollo on a Bowers & Wilkins chassis? It looks a lot like a B&W PX7 SE or PX8.

No changes made to my unit. As I mentioned I have an iPhone 15 Pro so the Fiio app for iOS doesn’t work with the KA11. I’ll keep an eye on it for a few days then contact Fiio.

Ok. I’ve had my KA11 for about a month now, and in the last 2 days I’ve started to have issues. It has started becoming extremely hot, almost uncomfortable to touch, and it’s having connection issues. When it heats up and the slightest touch is applied to it there is a “click/pop” noise through...

Hello to all you founts of wisdom. I am looking for a solution to a dilemma. I purchased two sets of Azla ear tips for my AirPods Pro 2s, Crystals and Xelastecs, and I love them both. I think I prefer the Crystals as they seem a bit less sticky and more comfortable, but both eartips have an...

Just managed to snag a pair of Huawei Freebuds Pro 2 on eBay for £30. I’m surprised how similar they are to the APP2. Sound signature is very close, although the dynamic range is a bit larger, especially in the high end, probably due to the planar driver tuning. NC is very good quality wise, but...

I’ve been an Anker fan for some time now. Mainly their USB-C chargers, as I am a flight attendant and I really like their compact form factor. I have been using a pair of APP for the last 2 1/2 years but the batteries in the buds and case are done. I didn’t relish forking out £190+ for a new...

My car has corded CarPlay (Mercedes A200d) and it’s never really worked properly anyway. Android Auto however is wireless and it works great with my wife’s Samsung.

Dont quite get what you mean by passing data through uncompressed. If you mean ALAC it is compressed. Almost all codecs are compressed as otherwise the data files are generally very large. Only a few codecs, like WAV and AIFF are uncompressed.

This sounds similar to the shop in Singapore I heard the Meze Empyreans in. It’s simply called Stereo and specialises in headphones. You can sit at the listening bar and listen to any of dozens of high-end headphones. stereo.com.sg.
