Also does the Asus Xonar DG have a better DAC than the E7 or E17?

Quote: Out of my budget

I have decided on getting the Audio Technica ATH-M50s, and now I have to decide on an amp. I want the amp to have a built in DAC, since I am still using my motherboards built in sound. I like the idea of the FiiO E7, but I have heard that its non-DAC counterpart, the E11 has superior...

I have decided to get the M50s, thanks for all the help guys!

  all right, so between the Dj100s, the M50s, the SRH750Djs, and the SRH440s really any would be a pretty good choice for me? Also, are the E7, E11, and E17 worth the extra money over the E6 when amping a sub-200 dollar set of headphones?

I am looking to purchase my first "high end" set of cans. I listen to music pretty often, on the go and at my computer through Spotify, Pandora, and similar services. Since I want some kind of all around setup I would want a portable amplifier. My budget is no more than 200 for the whole setup...
