Hi,
 
Any advice on what is a good portable bluetooth amp for the HD598 ? 
 
I'd like to use it with a Samsung Galaxy S4 phone.
 
I am a little bit confused because the Sound Blaster E5 has a pretty bad rating on Amazon. What are the alternatives ? Is it possible to transfer digital data from an Android phone to the E10K , for example ? FiiO E18  has pretty mixed reviews as well... any suggestions? I mostly listen breaks and psybreak and drum and bass. 
 
Cheers
 
Jozsef

I've got a Galaxy S4 as well and have been looking for an amp too.  But connecting from your phone via bluetooth to the amp is going to cause a lot of sound quality loss.  Unless you just play mp3's from your phone.  From what I've read most Fiio USB DAC's aren't going to be compatible with the GS4 via an OTG Cable.
