FiiO QX13 Zlatý Titan — Pocket-Sized Desktop DAC and Headphone Amplifier

FiiO QX13 Zlatý Titan is a portable headphone DAC and amplifier built around the 8-channel ESS ES9027 Pro chip and the XMOS XU316 USB processor. In a 39 g Titanium Gold aluminum chassis, it delivers up to 900 mW per channel through its balanced 4.4 mm output. This model is the right choice for listeners who want high power from a portable device.

What Sets the QX13 Apart

Two USB-C ports separate data and power, unlocking the full "desktop power" output without taxing the host device's battery. An immersive 1.99" IPS panel behind Corning glass offers 120 volume steps and a 10-band PEQ via the FiiO Control app. Separate boards plus femtosecond oscillators keep the signal quiet.

DAC Architecture and Decoding

The ESS ES9027 Pro handles PCM up to 32-bit/768 kHz and native DSD512 with THD+N below 0.0004% and SNR ≥ 124 dB. The XMOS XU316 bridge supports UAC 1.0 and 2.0.

• DAC: ESS ES9027 Pro (8 channels) — vanishingly low distortion
• The XMOS XU316 (UAC 1.0 / 2.0) interface ensures bit-perfect data transmission.

Headphone Output Power and Connectivity

Two OPA1692 pre-amp chips and four INA1620 output stages from Texas Instruments produce up to 900 mW per channel into the balanced 4.4 mm jack in desktop mode. A 3.5 mm jack sits alongside.

• Output power: 900 mW/ch (4.4 mm balanced) — drives full-size headphones
• Users can choose between 4.4 mm balanced and 3.5 mm SE jacks for cable compatibility.
