Build: 10/10 Sturdiest pair of headphones I have ever bought. You would be hard pressed to find a better build despite its mostly plastic parts. They may look cheap at a glance but in person...

I'm going to keep this review brief and to the point. This amp is freakin' awesome for $250 and it has a high/low gain meaning it's capable with almost any type of headphone you can throw at it...

Great headphones, however going back as look too stupid on me to wear in public. The headphones have an angular side band which leaves a huge gap on each side my medium-narrow face (with...

Very good headphones. The sound is good. Good idea for vocal reproduction.

My take on these cans: I've had the HE-400s for about year, and am now running them through a V-Dac II into a Burson soloist. Argon 5057 Cables between the amp and dac. For...

I'm quite happy with the amp so far. It sounds very nice and has great synergy with my JH13.

I also use the JH 3A/16 for recording monitoring when the equipment can't be isolated from the performers. Last week I recorded a solo pianist in his acoustically excellent home using my usual portable setup - a pair of Schoeps cardioids, Apogee Mini-me digital output to Oade modded Marantz 661 going out to the JH3A/16. It all fits in a briefcase and the sound is great.

Very nice...
iPod Classic 4th Gen 20gb + Portapros
thats quite a retro mix imo.
Walkman or Discman + Portapros is vintage.
same would also be spoken with iPod Classic 1st Gen 5/or 10 gb

That's the reason I might not get anything else, I want something small and light so I can keep it really portable. As it is now is probably as portable as it gets, except for some smaller Sansa DAPs.
I personally own the E17 and use it with my iPod Classic. I don't mind the slight extra bulk as it's about the same size as the classic.EDIT: It's like swiss army knife - great for the desktop.
Having said that, the e17 would be the majority of the bulk if you paired it with the Nano. If budget is an issue the E6 is also pretty good value for size and cost. I also have one and use it to drive some HD215's. It goes hard :P
Otherwise maybe a Digizoid Z02 ? Similar form factor (practically the same size) and pretty decent SQ. Never tried it with IEM's though.

Elegant. Also, is that case padded on the inside? I have an otterbox 1000, but the interior is hard. I hate having my IEMs hit against the walls. What case is that?

Thanks! Yeah the case is padded on the inside. It's the case that came with the earphones, looks like the otterbox 1000 but Heir Audio must have put the padding in there themselves.
Where do you guys buy your player-to-amp cables?
