Ohhh the gold shields were out of stock but back now!!

These are absolutely awsome... I was planning on the same thing except with this aperture science logo http://fc03.deviantart.net/fs70/i/2011/072/a/a/aperture_science_cubelogo_1953_by_dj_corny-d3bf7b7.jpg (sorry couldn't figure out how to add a picture :/) Also can anybody help me? I can't...

Thanks I think i'll get the e12 then, it'll be my first amp to start off my audiophile journey :) Edit: I decided on going with the jds labs c5 from miceblue's reviews of it

I was planning on buying some m100s along with a fiio e12. I actually haven't listened to the m100s yet so i'm iffy about getting an amp with it. It is a $120 investment so i'm not sure its worth it. Anyone have any suggestions?
