Packaging and Accessories

The FiiO K7 comes in a thick cardboard box with a black base and glossy iridescent printing that changes color depending on the angle of viewing and incident light. On the front is the company logo and product name along with an outline of the product and its salient marketing features. Some basic specifications are on the back accompanied by contact information for the company and an interesting note about the product likely going to be upgraded—this is a generic note found on basically all such FiiO products so don't worry about it. A double flap on the side can be unfurled to access the contents inside which come in the form of two separate compartments, including a whole new cardboard box for the various accessories.


FiiO also includes a handy quick start guide, (online copy here), which is worth going over to better understand the various inputs and outputs as well as setting up the K7 for use. A warranty card completes the paperwork and then we get to the more relevant accessories in the form of a 3.5 mm to 6.35 mm (1/4") adapter, a 3' long USB Type-A to type-B cable, and a two-piece AC mains power adapter cable—I have the UK version here—and power supply that accepts 100–240 V and up to 1.2 A while providing up to 24 W on the 12 VDC rail. This is how you know for sure the FiiO K7 is a desktop source and the smaller size of the unit results in an external power supply. The K7 itself comes safely packed between two thick foam pieces to minimize any mishaps on its way to you.
