The FiiO JA11 is a DAC and headphone amplifier that offers many remarkable functions. The device supports high-resolution audio formats such as PCM up to 384 kHz/32 bit and DSD128. Thanks to an aluminium-magnesium alloy and a secondary anodising process, the JA11 is not only durable but also looks good. The cable used is made of high-purity, oxygen-free, palladium-coated copper and is coated with a double layer of silicone and braiding, which ensures a long service life and low interference.

The JA11 is characterised by its compact and lightweight design and weighs only 5 grams. With an output power of 30 mW at 32 ohms, the DAC is particularly suitable for use with in-ear headphones. One of the outstanding functions is the integrated professional DSP. The sound can be customised via the FiiO Control app. This parametric equalisation (PEQ) allows the user to shape the sound according to their preferences. The JA11 is compatible with Android, iOS, Windows and Mac and also offers support for microphone inputs and CTIA/OMTP inline controls, enabling functions such as phone calls and audio recording.

The JA11 impresses with its robust design and customisable sound options. The DAC produces no annoying noise or electromagnetic interference (EMI) and stays cool even during extended use, making it a reliable choice for music lovers. The FiiO JA11 is therefore a compact, affordable DAC and headphone amplifier that offers high sound quality and extensive customisation options. It is ideal for music lovers who want to improve their audio experience without having to dig deep into their pockets.
