Hi, I'm a new member on this forum, and I have a dilemma :[.

My source is an iPod touch 64 GB
IEM: Head-direct RE0.

Now, I have to choose an amp.
So would driving the RE0 with the Nuforce mobile icon be much different from driving the RE0 with the Fiio E5?

So in other words, is the 75 dollar difference really worth it?
I noticed that you have both the IEM and the amps and that you give good feedbacks on them, hence this message =P
I tried sending a private message, but it wouldn't work. So I'm asking here.

hi mark2410, i just wanna know since you got a lot of shure iem and know them.
i've got shure scl2 that has been with me a year now, how is it compared to se210?
from my opinion scl2 got warmer sound and se210 got more clarity is that true?
i got my eyes on senns cx400 and se210 because that the least budget i want to spend for a earphone.
my slight concern if i buy the cx400 is a downgrade SQ par with scl2 even if i got more bass in it.

the last i know that every person ears and taste different so just want an opinion.
