I was just wondering if getting a FiiO E6 for my Klipsch S4s would provide a improvement in sound quality? My source will be the iPhone 4s.

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...

I auditioned the SRH-1840 straight out of the box, and was unsatisfied with the sound, so I decided to give them a period of break-in. Recent scientific studies have shown definite differences...

I doubt you will get an improvement worth while. You are starting with a mediocre pair of headphones.
even most high end universal iems won't get improvement with the E6, especially when used with an already good/clean source like the 4S.

you may use the money of Fiio E6 to buy a better IEM
Monster Turbines are upgrade from S4. They are better when amped.
Hi!
I have that combo and I must say that the iPhone 4S benefits quite well from the FiiO E6 amp.
The Klipsch S4, despite its low price, is a very good pair of earbuds.
I was actually thinking though about getting a pair of headphones... Future Shop has the Shure 750 DJs on sale; I don't listen at all to hip hop music, but I came to understand that they perform quite remarkably on different styles.
I would say that if you don't want to spend to much money, stick with your S4, they'll offer you a more than decent performance! But the E6 is almost mandatory with the iPhone 4S, which has a deceiving audio quality... I went from the Cowon S9 to the iPhone 4S and came close to ask for refund... But the 4S has so much more to offer than music that I couldn't get rid of it!
That said, I was wondering if anyone could tell me more about the Shure 750 DJs... Would it be a good idea to try them with the iPhone 4S combined to the FiiO E6? Should I expect a noticeable improvement from the Klipsch S4?
I mainly listen to some good old rock (Pink Floyd, Beatles, Rolling Stones, Deep Purple), indie (Arctic Monkeys, Julian Lynch, Tame Impala, Decemberists), folk-indie (Beirut, Hawk & Hacksaw), folk (Corries, Dubliners, Barde), malian-blues (Tinariwen, Diabaté & Touré) and blues (Hugh Laurie,....)...
Any comments? Suggestions?
Thanks!!
