Hey all,
 
I am purchasing a new pair of decent headphones soon (sennheiser hd598s), and was looking for direction on an amp.
 
I hear the bass on the sennheisers are on the light side.
 
My current options:
 
C&C BH
 
Fiio e11
 
Fiio e6 (most portability=good)
 
Digizoid ZO 2
 
I will be using this amp with my amp, and sometimes with my computer.  I dont think i need to make the price jump to an e17 for the DAC because i wont be using it with my computer much.
 
I would appreciate whichever amp i am getting to work with both the 598s, and my current xb700s.  I would love control in the bass also, but at the same time, i want it to be fun.
 
Bonus points to anyone that compares the C&C BH to the ZO 2 and e11.
 
Thanks all!

BH is an excellent amp with nice features including an LF bass boost that works great, huge battery life, gain switch and 2 headphone outs, much better all around than the e6 (I didn't like any of the eq setting on the e6) but it is a good little amp for $25. have not heard the others.

E07K has a DAC like E17 so you may be paying for stuff you don't need again.

I know a guy on here selling an E07K in great condition. I was going to buy it but I don't have the money right now so I figured I'd pass the buck
