I'm a complete noob to all of this, I have no current knowledge of audio, but really want to enhance my listening experience. So I thought that it would be as easy as buying a nice pair of headphones. I bit the bullet and got the GMP Maestro 400 on ear headphones, a review on this forum helped me come to this decision.
Like all things one wants to do right, one continues to probe around for more info. Not so hard find, but more difficult decipher. I think I need a portable amp. to get a great experience from my ipod. Looking around I find the FiiO E5 and the FiiO E7. Are they the same except for soundcard bit for the 7?
One more question, for the cable that will connect to the player to the amp., should it be a LOD or a plain line-out jack cable?
Thank you for any info one can provide, I suppose I should also add that I'm on a about $100 budget, so if there is a superior setup than this please add your 2 cents, but not if way off my budget.
Thanks and Greetings,
Chris
