Is this the kind of desktop DAC/amp setup you’ve been waiting for at a sensible used price? At £200, this sits well below the £272 25th percentile and comfortably under the £306 median, so it reads as a strong deal rather than merely fair.
That makes it an easy pick if you want a compact R2R-flavoured amp for a serious nearfield or headphone rig without paying new-money premiums. FiiO’s desktop pieces usually stand out for clean build, tidy ergonomics, and a smooth, engaging presentation that suits a wide range of headphones. “Box opened” is exactly the sort of condition note that can work in your favour here, especially if the accessories are complete and the unit is genuinely lightly used.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Fiio, founded in 2007 in Guangzhou, China, emerged as a specialist in portable audio gear, initially crafting components like speakers for brands such as Meizu before launching its own lineup. The name blends "Fi" from hi-fi fidelity with "iO" symbolizing digital one's and zeros, evoking authentic sound and modern convenience, while its Chinese rendering "飞傲" conveys innovative vitality. From modest beginnings, the company expanded into a 15,000-square-meter industrial complex by 2022, solidifying its role as a prolific developer of music-centric electronics.
The brand excels across a broad spectrum of portable and desktop audio categories, with flagship strengths in high-resolution digital audio players (DAPs), USB DACs, portable headphone amplifiers, and in-ear monitors. Its portfolio also encompasses cables, desktop amps, and select speakers, prioritizing versatile, high-performance solutions for on-the-go and home listening without venturing into turntables or large-scale hi-fi systems.
Fiio occupies a commanding mid-tier position in the global audiophile market, renowned for delivering premium sound quality at accessible prices that punch above their weight. Praised by enthusiasts for reliability and value, it appeals to discerning buyers seeking refined portable setups over luxury excess, backed by worldwide distribution and a track record of user-acclaimed innovations.
