We all know the Shure SE530's are very efficient earphones and any DAP can adequately drive them. I just about noticed how badly the FiiO E5 muddied the sound from my Zune 120gb. It may just be how crystal clear and balanced the sound from the newer Zune's are. The FiiO E5 made the bass a bit smeared and muddy and the highs lost energy with the bass boost off. I am really procrastinating on purchasing a Ray Samuel Audio amplifier....most likely a P-51 Mustang. Honestly would this amp even provide an $400 improvement in SQ when amped off of a Zune 120gb's headphone out? I know the Zune's have on of the best headphone outs in any DAP. 15 out of 20 on the Zune's volume is the max I would go so I am getting more than enough volume.
Thanks.
