    Headphone amp recommendations?

    I'm looking for a pretty low budget headphone amp to use for some bass boost. The only amp I've had was the Fiio E5, which was pretty good, but I'd like to find something better if I can. Thanks in advance for any help/recommendations

    Like the subject says - I currently have a Rockboxed Sansa Fuze that I listen to with ER-6is powered by an E5. I'm very satisfied with the isolation from my ER-6is /w flanged tips since I am usually listening to music while commuting on the subway or bus. However, I've been itching to upgrade...

    REVIEW: Head-Direct RE2 IEM and Fiio E5 amp

    I've had many people ask me about the best IEM value in the $50 category after I posted my review of the Nuforce NE-7M, especially by those asking about the Head-Direct RE2. So I set out to acquire a pair of RE2 to review and become more informed about other options in this price range. In that...

    Looking at purchasing an E5, but...

    I have a quick question. I'm currently using a pair of audio technica ES7's with an iPod Touch 4, and I love how they sound. Would using a Fiio E5 make a difference at all? I've read several reviews but found no definite answer, and was curious if someone had done this with a similar setup...

    Minibox F hissing?

    I just got a Minibox F in the mail today, and upon plugging in my headphones into the amp, the amp started hissing really loudly. Out of my Sansa Clip + there is no hiss, so I know it's not the mp3 player's fault. Why is the amp hissing so badly?   I mainly got the amp because the Clip +'s...

    Fiio E5 vs BSG cMoy

    First let me state that I don't have a ton of headphone and amp experience, but I figure thats ok since a well established audiophile will probably not be interested in these amps in the way that a noob on a budget (like me ) will be. I compared these amps over a few hours with various types...

    Really cheap headphone amps

    I'm going to try amping my decade-old HD495's but I'm cheap. Ten years ago, it was recommended to amp these cans to get best performance (they rated better than SR-60's when amped, but were bested by the Grado's un-amped).  I've decided to go this route rather than get new cans because I'm going...

    Can I burn in my AD700 with the e5 amp at the same time?

    Just got the AD-700's and had a few quick questions.  Just picked up the e5 amp to help supply them as well, can I burn in the headphones with the e5 hooked up or is that too much juice for burn in.

    FIIO E5 ---> HD 25 II?

    Hi all,   I recently purchased an HD 25 II which i'm using with my Cowon iAudio9. This combo gives me pretty good SQ imo.   I came across the FIIO E5 which seems a cute little amp for not too much money. Will it improve SQ if I use the E5 with my setup?   I'm not hoping for a huge...

    Cmoy OPA2227 Bass Boost Opinions?

    Hi all, I'm new to the Head-Fi community and was after a bit of help in choosing my first portable amp. I've narrowed it down to a Fiio E5 or a pre-made OPA2227 Cmoy. Would this Cmoy (link below) perform better than an E5? I'm afraid $50 is my price limit otherwise I would be buying...
