Need recommendation for a portable amp to be paired with Denon AH- D2000.

I'm just taking a look at some options for Denon AH- D2000. My budget would cap at 200, but I'm kind of looking for something that doesn't cost too much. Thanks.

Fiio E11.

What source(s) are you plugging into?

Probably a Cowon J3.

The impedance / sensitivity tells me there's no need. Its a very easy to drive headphone.

If anything is going to improve the sound of your Denon AH-D2000 (25-Ohm), the Fiio E11 is something to try.

Could also be that because the AH-D2000 is easy to drive and the Cowan J3 might do a decent job of driving headphones,

that there may not be a big difference in audio quality with the Fiio E11.

Get the Fiio E11 from a retailer with a good return policy.

Well the most common answer seems to be that I don't need one. I guess I'll do that and if I decide I have a bit of spare cash I'll go and try an amp. Thanks.
