Thanks for sharing. I know this may sound stupid, but when you say "significant improvement", how significant is that exactly? E.g. does the bass extends much deeper, is it more powerful, etc.?

Now that I received and tried a Fiio E5, I find myself struggling to find the need for an amp for my SA6, but I am sure you will correct me. These are only first impressions, but the sound became just too warm to my ears without (apparently) any additional benefit. Maybe there is a burn-in period? Maybe the Fiio does only deliver a 1/10th of the quality of your amp?

I am just starting to wonder if I should not just allocate the budget of an amp to a pair of Sleek Customs (after sale of my SA6)...
