Hi to all this is my first thread on Head-FI and I am so happy to join this big community

 

My setup is:

 

Players: Iphone 4, Macbook air 11,6 mid 2011

Headphones: Sennheiser HD 380 pro, Sennheiser HD 201.

 

I would like to buy my first portable amp to use it primarly with my Iphone 4 + Sennheiser HD380pro so this is the priority. But i even use my Macbook at home so please consider it.

 

The AMPs I selected and the price are: Fiio e7 DAC/AMP(Eur 80,00) Fiio e11 AMP (Eur 60,00) Ibasso D0 DAC/AMP(Eur 100,00)

 

 

My first question is: Ibasso d0 and Fiio e7 are a hybrid DAC/AMP Do I need a DAC using my Iphone 4+Sennheiser HD380? Which is the sound benefit using a DAC?

 

Second Question: Which is the best Buy for me in terms of sound quality between this three DAC/AMP  ? 

 

 

There are more amps in my price range that i can get for about 40-50 Eur: Electric Avenues PA2V2, JDSlab Cmoy, Fiio E6, please consider it too in your answers.

 

 

Thank you, Cheers!
