Hello, I'm new to the hobby. first offs! hello head fi! :) and this is my first post, hopefully im in the right forum category :D   I just bought a new White Marshall Major headphones which I'm using for music, which is great! I'm using it solely for the purpose of listening to Music...

So, I just recently purchased a pair of denons ah-d2000 from ebay, but unless i equalize the treble REALLY low, it hurts my ears A LOT when they sing anything with ''s'' in it.   I was thinking it might be my cheap amplifier, i'm using a Fiio E3 that i got for my old sennheiser. My budget...

Dug up (literally ​) my old Shure IEMs which go back as far as 2005 if not earlier but have no idea what model they are. They look like E4Cs but they are damned expensive and I wouldn't have paid that much I'm sure. Bass is weak compared to my Jaybird Bluebuds X for example but that could be...

I have both these amp for a couple of years. I was just wondering if I should upgrade? To be honest I only use them once in a while. I see a crop of newer amps from various companies for 120 and lower. I've looked at recents good review of the newer amps such as Fiio E7, E11 and also Soundmagic...

Hey, does the fiio E3 distort the sound through an ipod? Im thinking of getting it for the Grado sr80i to power them fully, but i also want to get the best listening experiance i can out of my ipod. Please share your thoughts, thanks

I have koss portapros on order did i make a mistake i listen mostly to rock and metal music.

Im looking for great sounding over ear headphones under $70. And I honestly don't know whats good or not. So Im wondering if you guys could help me out. I listen to a lot of Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, My Bloody Valentine, etc.

Are there any amps (portable or desktop) under $40 that really improves volume and bass. Ive looked at all the fiio amps from e3 to e6 do they really help the music? Ive never owned an amp so i need to know if any amp under $50 is just a waste of time and if not, which are best for the money. I...

I have radius atomic bass 2s which i am very happy with but i want some over ears and my knowledge of those goes about as far as some $30 skullcandys. I listen to rap/reggae/house/dubstep so i want really good bass but i need clarity too. Thats about it but please actually own these before you...

Which FiiO is recommended based on price and reviews?   FiiO E3 vs. E6?

Let me get this straight. -You don't need a FiiO E7 when the soundcard of your pc is good enough. I guess that in a year all soundcards will be better than the soundcard in the E7. -The only other thing useful about the E7 is that it's portable? But all it does is amplify your mp3/4...

Does anyone have feedback on the  FiiO E3 Miniature Headphone Amplifier?

Recently, I purchased a Zune HD 16gb. While I love the UI and build of the zune, the volume feels far too weak. Previously, I was using a iPod Classic 5th generation + Koss Porta Pros, which, while sounding a bit muddy at times, were always loud enough using maybe less than a quarter of the...

Haven't had time until now to post up this long awaited review as I was waiting for a replacement knob for the amp from Jaben so I could take pictures before posting this review. Hope you guise here on Head-Fi enjoy reading it. :) What's Included With The Amp: Velour carrying bag, 5.5" M/M...

Hi i currently use a 4th gen Ipod Nano & Vsonic GR06 IEM as a music player to travel to work, gym, and just casual listening of music   Im just wondering if adding a portable amp will increase the sound quality (and bass)?   I'v been looking at getting something such as the Fiio E6 & LOD...

Hey guys, I'm pretty new to the whole "good headphone" thing. I recently bought a pair of Audio Technica ATH-M50. I figured I would also buy a small headphone amp for them so my iPad and it together would better drive the headphones. I was wondering if I'm going even see benefit from the Fiio...

Hello all,   I've been living in a realm of medicority and sub-par audio for years, hoping that by buying higher end headphones and earbuds that I can relieve some of the strain of the dreaded ipod sound quality on my ears. I've purchased a large collection of ear buds and over ears from...

Hi,   Im running an m8-e3- atrio's   I like bass   Anyway my problem is hiss and very harsh highs, Im using the sptialisation function on the meizu m8 and specifically the phase correct eq   it really hurts my ears   I have an old impedance adaptor which seemed to sort it...

Here is the new chapter for the story about FiiO's tiny amps' line-up: E6 has been in development for over a year now and ready to be launched months ago. But due to the respect for Westone, which has decided to bundle the new E6 with some of their IEM, the launch is delayed till 25th of August...

Hello, I've been lurking this forum for the past weeks and finally decided to join. Of course, it's because I have a question and I know you guys are very helpful. I've been saving up money to buy some headphones and after weeks of research, I decided to go with the Audio-Technica M50s. I listen...

Hey guys, i've recently purchased (well bid on) a second hand pair of AKG K702. Theyre in spectacular condition and come with everything original. The way i decided on them? I went to your forums and spent days researching the many options, and it seems that the AKG K702's are well praised! At...

    Pros: Stunning clarity and balance Cons: Comfort issues, build quality feels cheap.   I chose to review these with my FiiO E7 with my E3 LOD to my iPod Classic as they definitely need some juice. The E7 is able to power these to comfortable listening levels though without a...

Last year I decided to get my first full size headphones, and after a period of deliberation I decided the ATH-M50 would be the perfect set for me.    After a few weeks of listening to them, I eventually decided that they would benefit largely from an amplifier, a concept that seems in...
