Are you looking for a bargain, or simply a sensible desktop DAC/amp? At £89, this is a fair-to-slightly-strong price: it sits just above the £78 median and only £1 above the £88 75th percentile from 56 comparable listings. It is not a bargain, but it is hardly overreaching if the unit is clean and complete.
The K11 remains a very capable little box, combining USB, optical and coaxial inputs with 6.35mm and balanced 4.4mm headphone outputs, RCA line-out, three gain levels and plenty of power for most headphones. Its neutral, clean presentation and useful connectivity make it a particularly practical all-rounder, while balanced output offers meaningful headroom. At this price, confirm the 12V power supply is included and test the display, volume control and both headphone outputs; with those checks passed, it is a solid buy rather than a listing to dismiss.

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.
