I just got an E6 in the mail today alongside some EPH-100s, and they sound pretty fun together. What worried me starting off was that the E6 dropped audio for my right earbud twice, with a noticeable, light popping sound (mini heart attack, thought my $150 earbuds just burnt out). Bypassing the...

ok, I own the turtlebeach X12's, they are $59. I have listened to the beats and they do sound better than the X12's, but they dont sound $200s better. If I go and buy a $100 pair of headphones, will they sound much worse than the beats, and will they sound much better than the X12's? i just want...

Hey guys,   I recently purchased a pair of AKG K240 MK-II's. I like them so far for music production (mainly trance music), except it's really annoying because they don't go up to the loudness I need to produce properly. I've read quite a few of the threads in here about this stuff, but...

Hi Everyone,   Thanks for looking. I just got the Ultrasone HFI 2400 as my very first good quality headphone. I tried burn-in using pink noise.     I am not an audiophile but I can still tell there is some sibilance. It makes high much less enjoyable. Bass is strong and smooth. Not much...

So, I have a pair of JVC HA RX700 that I bought for use with a digital piano a while back. Since then I was looking for a headset for teamspeak and online gaming, but found that I love the sound of these headphones on the computer and didn't want to invest in a new headset when I could easily...

I recently got a pair of HD580s cheaply, and I want to make sure I'm getting the most out of them. The only amp I currently have is a Fiio E6. While it is loud enough to listen to through this, i don't know if i'm getting all I can get out of the 580s quality wise.   1) Would the Fiio E11 be...

Just got my MS2i's and love them. I've been using a Cowon S9 unamped and they sound great, so i thought id try my Fiio E6 to see what happened. Its not a match made in heaven, flattens the sound and compresses it.   What would be a good amp to go with the Cowon, and with a PC and DAC...

Good afternoon Head-Fi'ers,   Been lurking around for quite awhile now and just starting to get back into headphones and such. Long time member over at Overclock.net as well   Anyways, I am starting to piece together a new system and audio setup and would love to have some advice in...

ok, so I am going to get the Sony MBR XB700. they are in my budget, i am a basshead, so people have told me they are perfect. I was wondering if these need an amp or a sound card. I have heard they are one of those pairs of headphones that doesnt need or benefit from a amp or soundcard. Is this...

*Puts flame suit on*   Hello everyone. I am here today to ask if I can use an amp for my beats pro to make it louder since  out of my phone it is incredibly quiet, as I need to crank it up to full volume just for it to sound comfortable for me and most people. Now I was looking into the...

  I've been looking for some new headphones for producing (Drum & Bass, Complextro Electro House, Dubstep, etc) at home. I'm in a situation where I have to be quiet most of the time, so I can't get monitors. I've been looking at AIAIAI TMA-1 Studio, which I believe are made for electronic music...

i got iphone 4s+shure se215 and i'm looking for to buy portable amp The budget is 60$ i think about cMoyBB what you guys say? thank you.

I'm having a bit of a struggle deciding between Koss DJ 100's and KRK KNS 6400's.   I listen mostly to rock, dubstep, electronic & ambient music. I've read tons of posts about these two, and I'm guessing DJ 100's would be better for this kind of music because of better mids & bass than...

Hey guys, So, I purchased the Hifiman Re-262's a few months ago, and I absolutely love them. I had read that a portable amplifier was suggested to really have the 262s shine, so I added the FiiO e6 to the order. However, when I got the e6 it did not at all live up to my expectation, and made...

I am relatively new to the whole headphone scene. I have some Audio-Technica M-50. Need help on an amplifier if I need one. Needs to be pretty portable.

Simple question. It the search bar isn't giving me very deep results today.

Hi! I am looking for an portable amp for my AKG K550. At the moment is it driven mostly by my iPad and my phone (sometimes an Old Harman Kardon avr 5000 When home). So i want an amp in the price range of the fiio e7. Hopefully one who is thiner and instead is longer/wider (hopes is understand...

hi guys im new here so please dont hate on my noobiness:) i use my ath m50s with my nanos and the sound is great. but will an amplifier further greaten the sound quality? please help cheers

Hello everyone,   I have a pair of skullcandy aviators. I was thinking about buying a portable amp for them, probably the Fiio E6. I mostly listen to metal or hard rock if that makes any difference. Is it worth it? My music source is an iphone 4S.   Thanks

I need an amp preferably under 100$ that could drive a pair of XB700 the best.  I have been looking at the Fiio E7 but I do not know if there are any better ones.  One thing that I am looking for though is portability... like something that i could simply strap to the back of my ipod.  I want...

Hello Head-Fi,   I'm looking to upgrade my headphone setup. Right now I've got a set of AKG K171 Mkii 'phones (which are 55 ohm) going straight from my computer. I use the FiiO E6 for my iPod. I am looking for a headphone amp (sub $300) to improve my setup. I've had my sights set on the...

Recently, I purchased a Zune HD 16gb. While I love the UI and build of the zune, the volume feels far too weak. Previously, I was using a iPod Classic 5th generation + Koss Porta Pros, which, while sounding a bit muddy at times, were always loud enough using maybe less than a quarter of the...

I was looking at this: http://www.soundprofessionals.com/cgi-bin/gold/item/ATH-M50s-LE-R   Are there any other cables to buy that would improve my listening expireience with a fiio E6?

I own a pair of Reloop RHP-20. Firstly, would it benefit much from a portable amplifier? If yes, which one would you suggest : JDSLabs cMoyBB, PA2V2, E6, E11, or ZO2? Or maybe any other amps in the same price range? I listen mostly to rock, alternative, RnB, and hip hop.
