Also is the balance supposed to cut the R/L completely as you go R/L or is it just by a few dB?
What do you all think about the sound quality of the e17 vs. the e10?
I'm considering buying an e10 or e17 to replace my e7, but I'm only going to be using it with my PC so I'm not worried about portability. I can get the e10 for $70 but it looks like the e17 is ~$160, so I'd rather go with the e10 if the sound quality is similar. Thanks.
As far as I can see there is only 'AUX' input and 'Headphone out'
Is there is any 'AUX' output in E17?

Let me know if you can hear the quality you would if it were in person... a good quality acoustic guitar sounds amazing compared to any guitar piece in my music collection, even at 96K\24bit.
Check out the Headphonia review on the E17 and decide for yourself. I have both and happen to agree (clear across the board better). On the other hand, when I just had the E10 (still do) I was extremely happy with it. Ignorance is bliss, just had to do the upgrade thing and my E10 is sitting around as a backup. If you don't need portability and the features of the E17, the E10 is a great buy and a good dec/amp.
BTW.. which headphones? It's also all about synergy.
I was thinking about that too. I only have the L9. Maybe a better LOD will solve the issue.
Yes it will "work". Will it bypass the iPad 2's DAC? No. You need a Camera Connection Kit first, and next you need a seperate source of power for the E17's plug(so like a powered usb hub) as the e17's power draw is larger than what the iPad supports. Some of those usb adapters that increase the voltage have been said to work but I do not know.
The E17 will work with any device that outputs sound through a 3.5mm jack.
