So I was hoping someone could recommend a good headphone amp BUT:
 
My budget is probably under under 50 bucks (MUST)

And also not too big, I plan to just use it with my iPod Touch (Doesn't have to be small, but prefer it to be)
 


Also, will an amp that cheap even make a difference?  I heard the cheaper amps don't really have an effect on higher end headphones and are meant for the cheap low end headphones
 
If this is the case I'd rather just not buy an amp, I can live without it :)
 
 
 
The bottom line: Can someone recommend a good portable headphone amp for under 50 bucks?? Or is it not worth it?
 
 
 

 
 
(Was looking at the Fiio e5 but read it doesn't really help with higher end headphones is this true?)

(Currently have Audio Technica ATH-ES7 but plan to sell and buy Audio Technica ATH-M50)

I'd look for a used Fiio E7 at that budget, or maybe a DIY/CMOY amp.
