I think AIYIMA A07 Pro is a renewed version of the model that has been sold before. ( Photos 1-4 )
There is no model number for this product, but I bought two of this product and used them together with the A07. The sound quality was almost the same as the A07. However, when using it at night with the volume lowered, it was convenient to have a tone control for easy correction.
This A07 Pro has the latest Qualcomm BT module. However, I am a little dissatisfied with the performance of BT because it is not a high-ranking module that is used.
In addition, all 4 op amps are socket type, aiming to attract DIY fans.
Also, some of the parts used have been changed, but I think the circuit itself is not much different from the old model.
One disappointment with the A07 Pro is that the volume pot used to control the volume has the wrong characteristics. ( Photo 5 )
It is common knowledge for audio engineers to use a volume pot with a logarithmic curve of taper A for adjusting the volume of audio equipment, but the A07 Pro uses a taper B with a straight curve.
In this case, the gang error of the R/L-ch is greatly amplified, and even if the volume knob is turned slightly, the volume increases, resulting in unnatural behavior. This is a big degradation point from the old model.
