personally i used them with my noontec zoros, hifiman re400, monster turbines, vsonic gr07
the closest in sound signature amongst what i have to your ue6000 is the noontec zoros and the turbines
more so the noontec zoros in the sense that the treble rolls off bit more quickly
the fiio e6 i feel is a dark amp, to be totally honest i honestly don't think they do much if anything to the treble ( if anything it sounds even more recessed relative to the bass and the mids emphasis)
now i'm a/bin this with my iphone with the amp and without at roughly what i think is the similar volume ( on iphone alone i use the noontec at about 4 clicks /16 i think) on the fiio amp i use it at 1 click (on the fiio amp 1 click is +2 in volume, so for convenience sake i will just say clicks from now on ) 2 clicks (which really +3 volume)
what it does is bump up the volume (using 4+ on iphone vs +3 with the amp) the bass feels more emphasized if you want to think of it in relative sense the bass seems like its been bumped up +3 the mids +2 treble +0/1
the bass becomes bigger and tighter more so in the midbass > sub bass
the lower mids- middle mids is more emphasised so male vocals become more rich
female vocals in the higher mids to lower treble still sounded nice but not as nice as with male vocals
no change really in sound stage
as stated above i did not feel like the treble was really touched at all, there was no extra sparkle or extension, but no harshness either
also something to note the post above was just comparing both the iphone and amp in vanilla mode (no eq on the fiio amp so eq1= nothing)
ignore eq2 the bass is far too overblown and gets muddy fast, making the transitition to mid range very weird and makes the treble soo recessed
the eq 3 however is a better than eq 2 i still like to use the amp without eq or on eq4 (reducing db good for low impedence and high sensitive gear (basically most of my gear) and good for using volume inbetween eq 1 (cause i felt the volume difference in eq1 was too big sometimes, and i use eq3 as a way to find a inbtween volume ex i can use the noontec zoro only up to +3 volume on eq 1 but when use eq4 i can go as far as +5, cause it limits the amount of juice that goes into the headphones)
soo back to eq3 the bass is a looser but bigger (tighter than eq2 but less than eq1) the mids become a bit recessed the lower treble gets bumped it ( on my slight siblant gr07) made the siblance more noticeable
the mid to higher treble was pretty much left untouched so there was no much sparkle despite the increase in bass and treble
hoped it helped lemme know if you need any help or clarification on what i said above
