Hi Guys,
 
I have a HE-400 that i normally use at home, but i also like to take it on any travels i make (even to work).
 
Problem is they feel underpowered with my Cowon i9 + E17. At max volume the Volume itself is decent, but compared to the shiit asgard, its like night and day (for me).
 
Im looking for a great portable amp that can juice those HPs far better.
 
For now, the only portable amp i have found in Poland to be sold is the Fiio E12 mont blanc.
Are there any other amps around a 1 Watt power for these orthos that you could recommend?
 
Please give me as many models as possible since ill have to check if i can even get them here.
 
I did find a few models out there that i cant remmber the name obviosly, with even over 2 watts, but they seem to heat up to extreme levels (and since i will be using them possibly in my pocket, it would probably burn down and take me with it).
 
On the budget side, i dont really have one now (i need to check the prices of the items in Poland, as they differ a lot from USA). 
 
But im quite sure i wont spend more than $400 on an amp unless its godlike :D.
