Amplifying the Klipsch S4?

So, after looking for a music player, I finally decided to get the Sansa Clip+ (2 Gb version)...why?

 

+ Good SQ

+ Line out

+ Rockbox

+ Small

+ Ugly (The ugliest the better, it won't be a thief magnet...unlike iPods)

+ Really cheap (Less than $30)

+ Micro SD cards...

 

I haven't bought it yet, I'm planning to get it from amazon and then pay extra shipping to get it to Guatemala. So, the question is this. Would it be worth to get an amp with the Clip also? For now, I own only the S4s. Would they take advantage of the amp? Or should I get just the Sansa?

 

Thanks in advance ;)

Buying a Fii0 E5 won't hurt, only $20 if you look well. Yet it won't help much, the clip pushes full sized headphones just well. My Grados blast at full volume from my clip+

 

I just like the E5 because it looks so cute with the Clip+ - I'm a guy, bite me

Nah dont really bother as you probably wont hear much of a difference with the S4 unless you turn on the bass boost on the E5.

Heeeell no! The S4s are bassy enough. I though some amp could help boosting the mids...but that's not gonna happen, is it?

@BotBite: Yeah, I was thinking about the E5 'cus...well...it's a cute amp lol. Plus, it'll give me some more coolness points when showing my portable rig to my friends "Look...I also have an amp...awesome isn't it?!" hahahaha
