I just got a new magni 3 / modi combo. And wow my hifiman got a new life! I´l save for the grados RS2e later on. Thanks!

Great!!! Thanks

Thanks ProtegeManiac, I do like the sound of the HM 400i, if I go whit the Asgard could i use the FiiO E17K as a DAC or I will need also a DAC maybe a Modi?

Hi everyone. I have a Hifiman HE-400i and the combo FiiO E17K as a DAC and a FiiO K5 as an amp. IMHO sound is very good and very transparent. I want to give it a try a new Grados Sr325e for around $295 and pair it whit the FiiO combo I just mention. Or it will be better to invest that budget in...

Will you guys think this AMP/DAC will drive good enough my HE400i, i'm using a Mac as a main Source. I read this headphones are hard to drive at low impedance and are very current hunger. My other option is to get the E12 that is more powerfull or maybe the Objective 2 and ditch the  DAC from now.

Hi i just got a HifMan HE400i, I'm currently using a Mac Book Pro as a Source its sound very good, I use around 60% or 70% of the volume and its pretty loud, but if I go up the sound will get harsh and get very subtle background hiss noise    Thinking about the e17K for getting more juice in...

My HE400i arrive a few days ago, one word: WOW! I re-discover my music. I appreciate all the input you guys give me.   I'm currently using a Mac Book Pro as a Source its sound very good, I use around 60% or 70% of the volume and its pretty loud, when connected to my iPhone 5 its has to go 100%...

I'm in the same situation, I need an AMP/DAC to connect the HE400i to a Mac Book, something in the sub $300. I need it portable because I will be moving around in my house. I'm leaning around this three options whit very low impedance output:   1) FiiO Alpen 2 E-17K whit Output impedance <1.1...

If i buy an AMP/DAC i want something future proof for the next copule of years. So the combo Schiit Magni + Bifrost would be and excellent amp/dac for the HE400i, do you think it will be a better future proof than the Magni/Modi?   Also do you think if maybe in the future if I want to try...

Or maybe go all the wat to Schiit Bifrost? or is to much money for start :(?

Ok, very good advice maybe I'l wait some time and just listen to them straight out of my MacBook . Planning in the coming weeks, as I understand so it is best to start in this case whit a DAC upgrade, what do you think of a Schiit Modi 2 Uber for start. Then in the coming months get the Magni 2?

I just got the Hifiman 400i. Thanks for all your help. Any Amp recommendations? I'l be using a Mac book Pro. 

Yes its a great headphone!! I think i will get it back jaja I will narrow my search for this two X2 and a the HE 400i.    Thanks for all the help!

Hi thanks for the respond, the shure SRH-840 were my only "hifi' headphone so I dont have other reference. I would say they were very articulate and warm whit enough bass (i'm not a bassehead) and body, i like how my music sound, but as i say they were my only headphones. On the down side they...
