I've wanted a real portable rig for quite a while and finally sprung for it. Bought the Sennheiser Momentum, an iPod Classic and a FiiO E11. Advice, opinions, etc? Should be pretty fantastic.

Swap out the ipod for fiio x3 and buy some music from hd tracks with the money savings. :wink:

I want the simplicity of the iPod Classic, and I like iTunes. I use ALAC and 320. Not a fan of the X3.

Why not going for IEM like a Shure 535 / 846 which doesn't need an amp? It's much more mobile and to my ears they sound better than the Momentus.

Sounds fine....
 
I also have an iPod and Amp. But I can't get myself to relax walking around with full size headphones, so I am still looking for some good IEM's... a bit more stealthy, so to say

In response to your original post, I had that setup for a few weeks and loved it. The Momentums don't really need an amp but in some cases an amp can provide a little extra low end and sense of depth. 
 
+1 to the investment in some high quality IEMs. Most don't require an amp and they're much more portable than the non-folding Momentums.
