Well, the man with contacts in high places has once again got first play with another excellent device from masters of affordable audio equipment,  FiiO.

The E7 USB DAC headphone AMP is nearing production (waiting for parts) but samples have been sent out and ClieOS from www.inearmatters.net (and our own forums) has received his sample, with customized printing to boot - lucky devil.

The whole device looks typically well made, sleek, well packaged and rugged. Not sure on the final pricing yet but knowing FiiO it will be a good price and high quality.

Accessories wise, you have the soft pouch for storage, a silicone band in case you want to warp it with a DAP, a heavy duty USB cable, for a size comparison, ClieOS has taken some shots next to some more popular players.
