FiiO LEVEL 1 – De kleine versterker die eigenlijk nergens logisch is

Soms komt er een product voorbij waarvan je direct denkt: dit kan niet kloppen. Zo'n apparaat dat eruitziet alsof het thuishoort naast een laptop op een bureau, maar ondertussen meer vermogen levert dan veel traditionele hifi-versterkers die drie keer zo groot zijn.

Dat is precies wat de FiiO LEVEL 1 doet.

Deze compacte geïntegreerde versterker levert tot 2x 300 watt aan vermogen en combineert een DAC, voorversterker, Bluetooth-ontvanger en eindversterker in één verrassend kleine behuizing. Zet hem naast een paar goede boekenplankspeakers en je hebt een complete hifi-installatie die nauwelijks ruimte inneemt, maar klinkt alsof er ergens een veel grotere versterker verstopt staat. De LEVEL 1 is ontwikkeld voor muziekliefhebbers die geen enorme stapel apparatuur willen, maar wel serieus willen genieten van muziek.

Belachelijk veel vermogen in een compact formaat

De eerste reactie van vrijwel iedereen die de LEVEL 1 ziet is hetzelfde:

"Dat kleine ding levert hoeveel watt?"

Met een opgegeven vermogen van 2x 300 watt aan 4 ohm beschikt de LEVEL 1 over meer dan genoeg reserves voor vrijwel iedere boekenplankspeaker en een groot deel van de vloerstaande luidsprekers op de markt. Daardoor klinkt muziek ontspannen, dynamisch en gecontroleerd, ook wanneer je het volume eens wat verder opendraait.

Of je nu luistert naar jazz op de achtergrond, elektronische muziek tijdens het werken of een complete concertregistratie op hoog volume, de LEVEL 1 houdt altijd controle over de luidsprekers. Dat maakt hem verrassend volwassen voor zijn formaat.

De ideale partner voor een desktop hifi-opstelling

Waar veel versterkers eigenlijk te groot zijn voor een bureau, voelt de LEVEL 1 zich hier juist thuis.

Combineer hem met een set compacte boekenplankspeakers zoals de Q Acoustics 3020c, KEF Q1 Meta, JBL L52 Classic of FiiO's eigen speakers en je creëert een desktop-opstelling die ver boven een traditionele pc-speaker set uitstijgt.

Je sluit eenvoudig een laptop aan via USB-C, streamt draadloos vanaf je smartphone via Bluetooth of gebruikt hem als centrale hub voor al je dagelijkse muziekbronnen. Zo ontstaat een systeem dat zowel praktisch als serieus muzikaal is.

Voor thuiswerkers, gamers, content creators en muziekliefhebbers die hun bureau willen upgraden is dit misschien wel één van de interessantste versterkers van dit moment.

High-Res Bluetooth zonder gedoe

Veel mensen luisteren tegenwoordig voornamelijk via streamingdiensten. Daarom heeft FiiO de LEVEL 1 uitgerust met Bluetooth 6.0 inclusief LDAC-ondersteuning.

Dat betekent dat je eenvoudig muziek kunt streamen vanaf je smartphone, tablet of laptop, zonder direct kabels te hoeven aansluiten. Dankzij LDAC blijft daarbij veel meer detail behouden dan bij standaard Bluetooth-codecs.

Even Spotify, Apple Music, Tidal of Qobuz opstarten en binnen enkele seconden speelt je complete speakersysteem draadloos muziek af.

Meer aansluitingen dan je verwacht

Ondanks zijn compacte formaat is de LEVEL 1 verrassend compleet uitgerust.

Je beschikt onder andere over:

  • USB-C ingang voor pc en laptop
  • RCA Line-in voor analoge bronnen
  • Coaxiale digitale ingang
  • Bluetooth 6.0 met LDAC
  • Speakeruitgangen
  • Subwoofer-uitgang
  • Pre-out uitgang

Daardoor groeit de LEVEL 1 moeiteloos mee met je systeem. Begin met een eenvoudige stereoset en voeg later bijvoorbeeld een subwoofer toe voor meer laagweergave. Of gebruik de pre-out om later een uitgebreider systeem op te bouwen.

Bass en treble gewoon met een draaiknop

Soms wil je muziek gewoon iets warmer laten klinken. Of juist wat meer helderheid toevoegen.

In plaats van ingewikkelde apps of digitale menu's heeft FiiO gekozen voor iets veel logischers: echte draaiknoppen.

De LEVEL 1 beschikt over afzonderlijke regelaars voor bass en treble, zodat je het geluid direct kunt afstemmen op jouw luidsprekers, luisterruimte of persoonlijke smaak. Gewoon draaien, luisteren en genieten.

Precies zoals hifi vroeger bedoeld was.

Retro uitstraling met moderne technologie

Waar veel moderne versterkers eruitzien als anonieme zwarte dozen, heeft de LEVEL 1 juist karakter.

De combinatie van aluminium en echte houten zijpanelen geeft hem een warme, bijna vintage uitstraling die perfect past bij een bureau, boekenkast of woonkamer. Het ontwerp doet denken aan klassieke versterkers uit de gouden jaren van de hifi, maar dan gecombineerd met moderne technologie zoals Bluetooth 6.0, USB-audio en High-Res ondersteuning.

Het resultaat is een versterker die net zo leuk is om naar te kijken als om naar te luisteren.

Voor wie is de FiiO LEVEL 1?

De LEVEL 1 is gemaakt voor iedereen die:

  • Een compacte maar krachtige versterker zoekt
  • Passieve boekenplankspeakers wil aansturen
  • Een desktop hifi-opstelling wil bouwen
  • Draadloos muziek wil streamen via Bluetooth
  • Veel aansluitmogelijkheden belangrijk vindt
  • Een versterker zoekt met karakter en uitstraling
  • Zo veel mogelijk prestaties wil voor een beperkt budget

Design & afwerking

De FiiO LEVEL 1 ziet eruit zoals hij klinkt: compact, krachtig en met precies genoeg retro-charme. De combinatie van aluminium en houten zijpanelen geeft hem een warme, klassieke uitstraling, terwijl de strakke knoppen en compacte behuizing juist heel modern aanvoelen. Dit is geen anonieme zwarte doos die je wilt verstoppen, maar een versterker die juist mooi staat op een bureau, dressoir of boekenplank. De fysieke bediening maakt hem bovendien heerlijk tastbaar: aanzetten, bron kiezen, bass of treble iets bijdraaien en spelen maar.

Good For Living On The Edge
Size: 9-Piece, Style: Traditional Handle Design
It was past time to replace my dollar store chef knife with a decent set with a bread knife and no steak knives. I first looked at Wüsthof as I always liked that brand, but never owned any. I used a borrowed paring knife for a while and was impressed with the quality. My line cooking time is over and though I would have liked to have a set of forged Wüsthofs, the price was too much for occasional use. My favorite chef knife was a 10" wide Victorinox/Forschner until it got stolen. I replaced it with an 8" version, but it was not wide and felt very different. Still my first choice for stamped high-carbon stainless steel blades. Again, the price for a set was a bit high for use once in a while. I spotted the Amazon Basics 9-Piece Premium Kitchen Knife Block Set. Wait. A forged high carbon stainless steel knife set for that price? I read through all the reviews even the one with the picture of the broken knife, the set seems to be a good buy. Certainly better than a dollar-store knife and a few dollars more than an empty knife block. While I haven't given them a good workout on food yet, I can tell they are very good given the price. I would have liked the chef's knife to be a bit wider, but I can live with it as is. I tried the index finger and thumb holding test on the chef knife and it was comfortable, but not so much on the Santoku knife. I am new to the Santoku Knife. I guess I would hold and use it more like a cleaver. The knives all feel pretty sharp out of the box, though like nearly all new knives, they need some fine-tuning to be really sharp. Sure they are not a top-name branded knife set and if I was still a working line cook I would choose a different set, but as a casual home cook, I like these very much.

Great set of knives balanced between cost and quality
Size: 9-Piece, Style: Traditional Handle Design
I was in the market for a new set of knives because my old set, a long ago gift from my well intentioned parents, was serrated. I have also had some "fancier" knives over time as well including a Wushtof chef's knife and a Shun santoku knife. So when I started looking to replace my knife set, I started looking at various different brands. My main goal was to find a balance between the quality of the knives and the cost, as in many cases, knives can get expensive pretty quickly. I also knew that I didn't really need the steak knives that often come with these sets because we hardly entertain, which means not a significant need for steak knives. When I saw these, I thought "This can't be for real for this price..." The knives work well, offering all the sizes and types I need for basic cooking. They are balanced fairly well, and while I could see some people not liking the plastic handles rather than wood, it doesn't really bother me. They are comfortable both in my grip and also in my wife's, who has smaller hand than I do. We find them easy to work with, from meats to fruits and veggies. They feel pretty solid, and appear to be full tang knives (all one piece of metal down through the handle, not welded together). I am pretty confident they will hold up for years with regular care, all at a price that is at or below many other introductory sets of knives. The block is a basic block of solid wood, as you would expect with most knife sets. The holes for the knives aren't cut exactly to the blade sizes, but honestly it doesn't really matter that it's not exact, as all the knives are able to fit in the slots. The rubber feet keep it in place on the counter, and the block is sealed/laminated to stand up to standard kitchen wear and exposure. I would recommend this set to anyone who is looking for a good balance between quality and cost, who needs a good set of knives to get them going in the kitchen and be functional, without breaking the bank.

Excellent set at an affordable price
Size: 18-Piece, Style: Traditional Handle Design
I'm not a chef, nor a knife aficionado. My wife and I both enjoy cooking and prepare our meals at least 5 days a week. We had a medium quality knife set that was around 13 years old. Due to improper cleaning (placed in the dishwasher most of the time) the blades dulled and rust spots appeared. We decided that a high end set might be a nice gift to ourselves, and looked at the premium brands available. Being non-professionals I started to feel uncomfortable spending upwards of $300 on a knife set. I have been watching these knives for a while now, and have read countless reviews, both good and bad to help me decide if these are worth getting. Having purchased other Amazon Basic items I felt that these were a safe bet, and if I were unhappy I could easily return them. Upon arrival the knifes looked fantastic. They were very nicely packaged and easy to safely unpack. The block was in perfect condition (some reported cracks upon arrival). I inspected the knives and all appeared to be in perfect condition showing no dings, burrs or warping. After a quick hand wash and dry I placed them all in the block. I did have a slight issue with one of the steak knife slots not fully cleared and preventing the knife from sliding all the way down. I was easily able to clear it using an old steak knife as there was only a wood chip stuck in the slot. I have used the knives about every day for the past 2 weeks and so far the are great to use. Very comfortable, super sharp and they clean up well. The only issue I have had is the Scissors come apart very easily, I've had them fall apart while using them twice already. I will see about adjusting the tension on the connection, but honestly the scissor is not very important to me and I don't mind replacing them with higher quality kitchen scissors if need be. Overall we are very happy with this purchase and I expect that with proper cleaning these knives will last a very long time.

Forged Knives at a Stamped-Knife Price
Size: 18-Piece, Style: Traditional Handle Design
Purchased as a gift for a friend suffering with an old, rusted, chipped set of cheap big-box knives. As far as I can tell, these are one-piece forged/milled knives with a full tang... no idea how Amazon gets them so cheap. I have a set of J.A. Henckels Four-Star that were 5x the price, and these knives are almost as nice in fitment and quality. Some of the grinds at the bolster aren't quite symmetrical, but nothing that functionally affects the knife. Not show-dogs, just old reliable mutts that get you where you need to be. Knives have a good weight and balance, not too heavy but sit well in the hand and have a nice action. The edge out of the box is only average, and the chef's knife had a decent roll to the edge out of the box. However, they sharpen easily and can take a fine edge with a little work with the steel (no word on edge longevity yet, they don't cook that often). The shears come apart for cleaning (which is nice), although I found it a little too unstable when opening them wide, the rivet is at 90* so when taking a big bite they have a tendency to come apart rather than scissor. Changing to a design that doesn't separate until they're fully open would make them much better. The woodblock is pine, and had a distinct pine scent out of the box (I suppose this is an area where they saved money, I would pay a premium to get a bamboo block instead). The exterior was well-finished, but the interiors of the knife slots did have some rough spots and/or splinters from the milling. Nothing that stops it from working as intended, a little back and forth solved the majority of problems. Friend hand washed them after receiving them, but left them damp. Water spots, but no rust on any of the blades, the steel had light surface rust that came off with a scrubby sponge and soap. Overall I remain optimistic they will stand up to the abuse of a forgetful cook. Having bought expensive German steel, and now these, I daresay I would probably be unable to tell the difference between the two in the kitchen.

This is an inexpensive quality knife set!
Size: 18-Piece, Style: Traditional Handle Design, Size: 18-Piece, Style: Traditional Handle Design
I have been a Chef for 17 yrs. and from experience know you don't get quality in an inexpensive knife set. This AmazonBasics Premium set really impressed me. The knives I use and have at home are mixed matched because I like good hefty knives. My wife always rags on me that the knives look crappy, so I got on here and started reading reviews. I was not gonna spend alot of money on a set knowing that I have good knives already. Then I saw this set, and looked at the video. I got them in TWO days, and when I opened the package I was expecting the block to be split, chipped, or have saw marks. As you can see the one I got was flawless. I then took out the chefs knife and smiled. Easily comparable to a 8" Zwilling JA Henckels Pro Traditional Chefs Knife. It has the same quality, heft, and balance. TRUST ME I KNOW!!!! Beautiful knife. The thickness of the blade is equal to my Victorinox Fibrox Chefs Knife and I paid $45. for that knife alone!!! This here is a quality product at a good price. Treat them with respect and they will last for YEARS. If your looking for a good complete set, a nice wedding gift, of just looking to replace the "crappy" set you have look no further.
