I just got my ATH-M50s and they are awesome.

 

Now I would like to get an amp for them to make them even better. What amp would you suggest to buy for them around $50 range or is that to little?

 

I looked at the Fiio E5 but it looks to cheap to do something


What do you say?

 

Thanks

At $50.00 nothing comes to mind other than the filo.  

 

You may want to watch the for sale forums on Amps like a hawk, and see if you can snatch up a HeadRoom Airhead, used for around that price.

As kboe said, you're really going to have a tough time finding an amp suited for your M50s for that price. Not saying the FiiO isn't good, but it won't have much of an impact on the M50s. It really wouldn't be worth getting an amp less than $50 if you're using a PC. You have to stretch your budget a little more for a good portable amp that will put out enough power.

Using an Creative X-Fi sound card right now to power them.

 

Thanks for the suggestions. I'll hold off on the amp until I have more money .
