I could use some help understanding the interface. Does the e17 function as a stand alone system. Or, does it need to be paired with e9 or11?

It works perfectly as a stand alone system. I found this review helpful: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2bj_-bYA53E

It is a stand alone unit but can be paired. I am not really up on amplifier technology. I was just looking for an amp that would give more punch than my iPhone could deliver. I have some akg 701 headphones that I love but they require power. I am very happy with the e17. It looks great, is small but is powerful. I would recommend this amp for anyone looking for solid sound under $150.

Yes, the E17 function as a stand alone system, and paired with The E11 for computer-use (headphones). The FiiO E11 is not compatible with the E9.

As stand alone system pairing whith iPhone in analog way, but the E17 does not receive audio signal digitally from 30-pin conector Apple devices.i would like it was compatible with this like other similar products.

It may be used either stand alone or in the E09/E09K dock/amplifier. I mostly use it docked as a DAC for the E09. I used Optical (mini-TOSLINK) from a MacBook Pro and USB from a Windows desktop. I have used it stand alone several times and it works well.

I'm using it as stand alone. Good amp, makes the sound a bit more natural, but don't look for something incredible. A bit stiff on the price, product design isn't great and reminds of 1990s digital recorders - they provide a couple of rubber bands to attach it to an iPhone or other digital player, it's not what I could call good UX. I wish something more organic was created, like a Mophie type of enclosure really fitting the digital player: I'd use it more often and wouldn't be scared of scratches to my iPhone which is also made of aluminum / metal.

The FiiO e17 works as a stand alone unit. If you're planning on using it with your iPod/iPhone, I would suggest buying the FiiO L9 cable (not really necessary if you're satisfied with the sound quality from the included cable)

It's totally stand alone. USB rechargeable battery powered DAC/amp all in one. Takes input via USB, spdif coax or optical, and aux line 3.5mm.

It can be used as a stand alone or paired with e9 or e11. Right now I'm using it as a stand alone. Works great! Love it

You will need an available USB port and Windows 7 or greater. There are drivers for all windows versions on the website. It also will need a program that accepts GPS user interface. I bought it to use with Jeppesen Flightdeck Pro and was attempting to use it on a Windows RT platform. I have not been able to get the drivers to work and the device is useless. There are several Bluetooth devices that work flawlessly without the hassle of downloading drivers, etc. Dual XGPS or Bad Elf Pro both come to mind. The DUAL XGPS does not work with the Windows RT platform and the Bad Elf has issues flipping to the southern hemisphere. You will need an available USB port and Windows 7 or greater.

I don't know my E92 has the 2010+ updated iDrive system. If your car has an AUX and USB port then it should work, however I'm not familiar with E53 setup. Sorry, try asking the BMW dealership they might be more help than me.

Yes. And I'm sure there are better ones out there, but my E07 works just fine.

Update: I bought this remote and it does work on the e390i-a1. Thanks everyone for the responses! Much appreciated!

The E17 has three inputs, USB, a special 18-pin Docking Interface and a 3.5mm aux input. You could connect the FiiO E17 to your headphone jack on your receiver and then connect your headphones to the E17. I am not sure how much this would improve the sound since the real use of the E17 is to convert digital audio to analogue audio. It does this very well and greatly improves the sound from a PC.

So the E07K has ..... 2 headphone ports vs just one on the E17..... the specs on the screenshots are very similar ..... sooooo save some money and get the E07K over the E17? Anyone?

Hi sijia, my issue was with the drivers/software not playing nice with my computer. I had an alien ware m17x at the time. I never pin pointed the problem but I was able to get them to work by installing the updated software from the website. However I was getting crazy errors. But I noticeed after running the installer you will have like 6 new programs under add/remove programs. So I started uninstalling one at a time and seeing when the errors stopped and when the lights would still turn on. Unfortunately I feel like everyone will have a different problem, but it's a place to start. Good luck! Hi sijia, my issue was with the drivers/software not playing nice with my computer.

You should be able to. From your CD analog out, you can connect to the E17's aux (amp only). From your CD optical out, you can connect to the E17 optical in which will utilize both the E17's DAC and amp. I don't know which will sound better.

I extracted all the drivers from my eee to keep as backup, using "DriverMax". Let me know if you want me to give you a copy of my backup, so I can upload it to the web. It's for 900HA model.

Here is some info on the E18 problem and how to fix it. http://www.e18error.com/. I was getting ready to buy a sx10is but now I think I will wait until I find out more information on how wide spread this problem is.

My unit never worked properly so don't really know. I continually get E4 error and unit shuts down

Not sure. Sorry, no better answer. What you probably need to do is query remotes for that particular model; that's how I found this remote for mine. Only two remotes were available for me E500i-A1 model.

When the e17 is docked in the e09k the only input that is selectable is "dock-in". To select any other input it can't be in the dock. I ended up using an optical cable for input into the e17 and my headphones plugged into the front of e09k. The instructions that came with the e09k were a little difficult to follow. Hopefully my answer helped.

I have an E6520 and my laptop wouldn't recognize it. I tried all kinds of solutions that I read about but in the end I sent it back. Not sure what the problem was.

I have used it with the with the E5510. That is the previous generation of your laptop. It will work with any E-Series port.
