I just bought a new FiiO M9, as I've moved past my iPod 5.5 Wolfson DAC with FiiO Alpen E07k DAC/AMP rig combo.
I'm still a relative newbie to the audiophile world, and was really confused when I saw a Youtube review about the FiiO M9 saying that you can add a portable amp to it? I thought the whole purpose of the M9 aside from the bells and whistles was that it eliminated the need for separate unit portable amp? If someone can please explain the concept to me as to if this is true to achieve a even greater sound, or if the FiiO with a pair of Sennheiser IE40 should be suffice?
Please educate me on the pro's and con's of using an additional headphone portable amp (like the FiiO E07k, for instance) with the FiiO M9?
