FiiO QX11 Headphone Set – A Planar Rig That Starts at a USB-C Port

The Starter Set plus headphones that use what the QX11 can do. The FT1 Pro is an open-back planar that comes with a 4.4 mm balanced cable, so it plugs into the stronger QX11 output, and the power bank or a desk charger switches on Desktop Mode when you want more headroom.

In This Setup

• FiiO QX11 – pocket USB DAC and headphone amp with dual ES9069Q DACs, 4.4 mm balanced and 3.5 mm outputs, up to 360 mW per channel at 32 Ω in standard mode and up to 800 mW in Desktop Mode, 36 g; USB-C data cable and protective case included. Available in Dark Green or Vintage Gold.
• FiiO FT1 Pro – open-back headphones with a 95 × 86 mm planar magnetic driver, 7 Hz-40 kHz, 20 Ω and 374 g; 4.4 mm balanced and 3.5 mm cables included.
• Anker Nano Power Bank (10K) – 10,000 mAh power bank with a built-in USB-C cable and up to 20 W output, about 195 g.
• Anker USB-C Cable (1.8 m) – USB-C to USB-C cable, long enough to reach a computer under the desk.

Why This Combination

• Balanced out of the box: the FT1 Pro 4.4 mm cable fits the QX11 balanced output.
• A real match: 20 Ω planars sit well inside the 8-350 Ω range the QX11 recommends.
• One source for everything: phone, laptop or tablet, for music and for games.

Set price includes the DAC/amp, headphones, power bank and USB-C cable.
