So I'm looking into buying the beyerdynamic dt 880 premiums, 250 ohms. I also just ordered a fiio E10 for use with my current setup (laptop w/ ****ty sound card + vmoda m80. If I decide to upgrade to the dt 880s, will the fiio E10 amp/DAC be a good enough pairing for them or should I look into something better?
 
Currently I don't have an amp or dac, so I was looking for a cheap solution. Every review I've read on the 880s has them paired to a setup over $200, so I'm afraid that the E10s wont be good enough for them. 
 
EDIT: kind of found an answer, seems weird to me that they're fine together but w/e ill go for it

Using search, I found that the Fiio E10 will work fine with dt 880

Technically, the E10 should be able to drive the DT880 250-Ohm headphones, volume control might be between 50% to 65% of max for normal listening.

that sounds fine to me, I'm very wary of playing them too loud so I don't damage my hearing
