I already have the FiiO E11, if I get the Denon D2000 is it worth buying another AMP/DAC FiiO E17 or should I wait for higher impedance headphones.

The e11 is great with the d2k. You won't see much difference. I'd wait.
 
GL!!

Alright I've made my decision I'm going to stick with the E11 and upgrade to Desktop AMP/DAC when the time comes for another upgrade. Thanks guys!

hello there! I use the denon d5000 in combination with the aune mk2 now since three days.
last month, I already had a denon d2000 with a FiiO e10. I was thrilled. But sent them back. I thought that the d5000 should sound a little bit better than a d2000 and i decided to wait. Now i got it and it seems to be like the aune takes the bass away of the denon. i turned on the bass over windows features. but this takes the ups and downs.Now once again i ordered the FiiO e10 and d2000. i want to compare them all. is there someone whis bad expirience with aune mk2 + denon ? thinkin about to order a yulong u100.

sorry
 
im lookin for the best amp for denon d5000. like i already said. the aune takes the bass away. fiio seems to be good ?or something different?

Just get a neutral ss amp with low enough distortion across the board and you'll be OK.  In my opinion the denons benefit more from and upgraded dac than an upgraded amp, they are easy to drive.  I drive mine with an E9 and I couldn't be happier.  Some people are happy using portable amplifiers for the denons.   
 
The list of usable amps for the denons is very long, if you have a few choices in mind maybe we can advise you from there.

My ZO2 + voodoo sound give me enough power for my D2K's.
E11 did more than enough to drive them

Thank you for your answer. I want a suitable DAC for 50% games and 50% music and movies. My budget max 200 € (im from europe)
 
My narrower choices:

Yulong u100
Aune MK2 (I)
Aune X1
FiiO E17
FiiO E10
FiiO E7 + E9

Yulongs delivery takes two weeks from China Aune too.
 
I attach great importance to neutrality. But its known that the Denon headphones are a bit bass-heavy. That's why I'm confused. Aune -> low bass..
Battlefield 3 with no bass at exploding tanks? No thanks ^^

I really want to boy the D5000's but am having trouble finding a good price. One for sale went up on the forums but he hasn't replied as of yet

OMG!

D2K's + wooden D5k cups - done.
This looks so sexy.
 
SQ wise:
-bass has tightened up a lil - better rumble YUMMY!
-sound more "open" - I guess that's the difference between the wood vs plastic cups
-lil more sparkle
-bit too sharp in then highs - might need to tone these down
 
I'm IN LOVE - just by looking at it.
And what was the cost?
$50 and some drilling for 10mins (experimenting and all)
 
I bought the d5k cups mainly/only for the look.
And now they have brought a little different SQ
 
Overall I'm very happy. They look to DIE FOR!

I dont know how much your budget is but electronic expo had it for 399 for quite a while now. That's the lowest price ive seen it go recently.
