I have the Fiio e6 with westone 3 and I am wondering if it's worth upgrading to e11. Is there a difference? My budget is 200 and I'm wondering if the e11 will improve the sound of my w3 much more than the e6 does? Any suggestions?

Bought these on whim, for your basic train ride to work I don't mind. But its far from being the best I have own.

First, I should note that I auditioned these both straight out of the box, without any break-in time and then later after 53 hours of break-in. Recent scientific studies have shown definite...

A very all-round headphone for me. Just the right one to take on the go or on holiday. Also as a DJ, nice noice isolation. Very durable so you don't have to wonder if it will break if you throw...

This quick review is done after a few hours of listening. I bought them from B&H for the decent sum of 150$. If you've done your research you'll find out that Ultrasone HPs are known for their...

He is using the westone 3 and that is why I said that I was not sure if he could tell a difference.

Hmm, i probably agree. IEM's usually don't need that much power. If he had headphones, especially some $100+ ones, then I would ....say...yes?

I can't talk about FiiOs as I have yet to hear the later ones, but I need to address your point...I have Westone 3s and they cost 250 pounds in the UK, which is about $300, I think. It doesn't always have to be the case that more expensive headphones profit more from amping.

That is generally the case though.
