FiiO has introduced the QX11, a headphone amplifier featuring dual ESS ES9069Q DACs. It boasts an output power of up to 800 + 800 mW in desktop mode, though an authorized German FiiO resource lists it at 780 + 780 mW.
The QX11 amplifier offers Hi-Fi, Gaming, and Driverless modes, plus AI microphone noise cancellation. Its aluminum alloy body comes in dark green and retro gold, and it sports a 1.14-inch color LCD screen. You get a 3.5mm unbalanced and a 4.4mm balanced output, controlled by a pressable rotary knob and customizable buttons. It measures 64 × 28.8 × 13 mm and weighs about 29 g according to the German listing, though the publication states 36 g. The Gaming mode includes profiles for FPS, ACT, MOBA, and MUG. FiiO doesn’t yet have a dedicated QX11 page with full specs, so this part of the information isn’t officially confirmed.
The FiiO QX11 is already available on Aliexpress for $159.

I’m keen to check if the FiiO QX11 actually hits its claimed 800 + 800 mW output power in desktop mode and how much of a difference that power makes with various headphones. Since I’ve reviewed FiiO players before, like the FiiO X1 II, I’ll have something to compare this new model against. For now, this is just an announcement based on a publication’s report; I’m waiting for the official page to confirm the specs.
