Hey ive had my se530's for about 3-4 months now and i love them to death. But i notice when i plug them into my pc i get quite a increase in bass and overall volume... i have no eq turned on its just the flat audio.... im wondering if buying a ibasso t4 would give me the same experience on my portable source? thank you.

Tomahawk and some other RSA amps are known to be well-compatible with the SE530, but they'll add bulk to your setup (whether or not that matters to you I dunno). I'd advise against buying the T4 solely for use with SE530. Some of the T4's are known to hiss like a snake with sensitive IEM's, and SE530's are exactly that. Now, T4 is a decent portable amp, and it does improve sound quality with the SE530, but not by THAT much and the hiss is very much evident on mine.

I go ampless with my 530, personally.
