I have Sennheiser HD 202's and cx-300's.
These generally do not need amp's. They play at a loud enough volume but I was looking to get some more quality.

Recommend me an cheap amp! (cheap I mean CHEAP

I made a cmoy but Meh it doesn't make a difference and it hurts my ears.


What about a cheap fiio 3
Or someone have a well made cmoyBB they can sell me for cheap?

i don't think you will find ANY cmoy for $15, bump it up to 20 and i think the Fiio e5 is your best bet. Mine is comming in the mail =) The e3 is not bad either, its just that i don't like the hiss.

19.50 from dealextreme.com, they are extremely reputable, albeit slow sometimes

The amp won't make those 'phones sound any better. Also, you are probably getting hiss from your cmoy because the gain is too high for those 'phones. Add some more resistance...
