I believe the general consensus is that the E10 is better for easier to drive headphones and the E9 is better for harder to drive headphones. You can tell if a headphone is hard to drive based on their impedance and their sensitivity ratings. The E10 will probably be fine for anything under $200 in general. It's when you start looking at things like the Sennheiser 6x0 line, Beyerdynamic DT770/880/990 or AKG K70x, things around that price range as the entry levels for needing more powerful amps.
