Source difference

Hi, I have two Fiio hi-res players and cd player (sony not hi-tec player). I connect them amplifier, Fiio's flac performance not good as cd player. Perhaps, it's empedance problem. I don't know. Do you have any idea about the problem? Do you advice any solution?

Which FiiO player and what is your method of connecting it to your amp?

 

[mdardeniz]

Fiio M6&M9, direct connection with cable.

Did you upgrade the FiiO firmware? Link

Are you connecting from a headphone output or a line output?

Line output should give the best result.

 

[Galu]

I believe you have to switch from headphone out function to line out function.

"1 x 3.5mm headphone/line output. A single-ended output that suits all basic needs, it can be switched to line-out function in case you want to connect an external amp to the M6."

I reset the fiio. Now, it's better.
