To connect the pair of passive speaker, you may still need some cable: e10 has po and lo. I actually has an extra phillip integrated player (don't know the internal structure of it, but should have an amp in it. I connect the e10's po with phillip's mp3-link/aux in.)

recommend to the mac audiophile who is tight in budget. You can definitely satisfy your ear within 300 GBP.     ---sorry, typo virtualbox

Generally I am happy to have it. it sounds impressive even directly with phones, mp3s, well, especially with my cowon d20. But now thinking about try better player and amp to explore its potential.

UP Up. Any one who ever tried gr10, please share your experience.

Thanks.   Yeah, E10 is a DAC with integrated amp and also has unamped line-out. But you think Novo will give a noticeable improvement over e10?    Best,

Hi,    I need some help on the decision of whether to amp the gr10 and dt770pro. They are both low impedance cans, and sound not bad directly with cowon d20 and mac with fiio e10. Since they are also quite high quality stuff, I'm wondering if they need amp to reach the full potential.   ...

  Yeah, using gr10 directly with cowon d20, I found the vocal and acoustic really impressive already. very transparent and detailed in mid and tremble. However, a bit tiring for long time listening. dt770pro on the other hand is more comfortable, and detailed still. as a headphone, dt770pro...

:( No reply...Am I asking the wrong question...?   Or to be specific, anyone who tried grado gr10 with amp can tell if it needs amp..

Especially GR10, the opinion on whether an amp is needed diverges. Some say good enough without amp, some say  an amp will truly fulfill the potential of the little green bee..     Anyone who tried a pair both with and without decent amp can give some advice?

Hi,   I'm wondering if the low impedance (32om) Grado gr10 needs and amplifier. I'm considering Graham Slee Novo. Any related information is welcome.   Also, I got a pair of dt770 pro 80 om. Will Novo improve on these two cans?   Thanks very much for all informative advice.
