The Fiio R7 headphone amp is a true all-in-one model that acts as a network player, audio DAC, headphone amp and hi-fi pre-amp all in one. This Fiio R7 amplifier is easily controlled by a large touch screen, an Android operating system and a mobile application. It can access streaming services, music shared on the local network (DLNA and Roon Ready), tracks stored on a USB stick or micro SD card and link to your digital sources. The ESS DAC ensures the playback of all your Hi-Res music, while the triple headphone output coupled with high power amplification allows you to make the most of any headphone or pair of headphones. Finally, bi-directional Bluetooth makes it easy to stream music and listen with wireless headphones.

The Fiio R7 headphone amplifier offers an ultra-complete solution that takes advantage of the latest advances used on the brand's audiophile players. It is one of the few headphone amplifiers in the world to use the Android operating system. It offers access to a vast catalog of applications, for maximum compatibility with streaming services. The Android system offers more intuitive navigation through the various menus and applications. To do this, the Fiio R7 headphone amplifier has a large color touch screen. Navigating the menus and music library is always intuitive and fast. The Fiio R7 can also be controlled remotely from the FiiO mobile application.

Thanks to its dual WiFi and Ethernet network controller, as well as Android integration, the Fiio R7 connected headphone amp is able to play all your shared music on the local network, whether from a NAS server or a computer. It also allows you to access many online music services such as Spotify, Tidal, Deezer or Qobuz and much more thanks to the integrated Play Store. Of course, HD streaming support is included for compatible services.

To ensure optimal conversion of music and digital sources, the Fiio R7 connected headphone amplifier is equipped with an ESS Sabre ES9068AS DAC, one of the most powerful models of the moment. It supports PCM streams up to 32 bits / 768 kHz, as well as DSD512 files. To make the most of these files, the Fiio R7's DAC is associated with an in-house clock with an FPGA controller that allows the correct timing of the data to limit jitter. The result is a smoother and purer listening experience.

In addition to streaming, the Fiio R7 headphone amp and network player benefits from a complete connectivity. In particular, it has an optical and a coaxial input allowing you to connect a TV or a CD player, for example. Thanks to its USB-C port, the Fiio R7 headphone amplifier can also be used as a USB DAC with a Windows or Mac computer. The reading of dematerialized files stored on a USB key, a hard disk is possible from the USB-A port, but also from a micro SD card thanks to the integrated reader.

On the output side, the Fiio R7 offers in addition to its headphone outputs a coaxial and optical output to bypass the internal DAC. Finally, a balanced XLR output and two unbalanced RCA outputs allow the Fiio R7 to be associated with a hi-fi amplifier or a power amplifier thanks to their fixed or variable level. The Fiio R7 network player can thus be used as a simple source or directly as a hi-fi pre-amp.

The headphone amplifier stage of the Fiio R7 is based on a fully balanced dual-mono architecture. It consists of two THX AAA-788+ modules. These modules offer high amplification power and sound close to the best class A amplifiers, without consuming more power than conventional class D amplifiers. The THX AAA technology of these amplifier modules also ensures surgically precise reproduction and a zero noise level. It has an extremely low distortion rate and a wide frequency response. These are essential features for enjoying all the details offered by HD recordings. The Fiio R7 is naturally Hi-Res Audio certified.

On the output side, the Fiio R7 headphone amp offers an unbalanced 6.35 mm headphone output, as well as two balanced outputs: one 4.4 mm jack and one XLR. Its power is 1850 mW under 16 ohms for the unbalanced output and 3650 mW under 32 ohms for the balanced outputs. Thanks to this design, the Fiio R7 headphone amp is able to efficiently power any headphone or pair of headphones, even those with high impedance. To ensure perfect compatibility, five gain settings are available.
