Hi Everybody,
I recently purchased X10s for listening on the go. I am now looking for an amp in the $300-$400 range. I know that an amp of that cost is a bit overkill for the X10s, but I do plan do get a top end IEM in the future (Custom UE11s) and I want to be able to use it with them.
I will only be using this amp with IEMs as I have a Zero DAC I can mod if I want a hifi amp for some nice over the ear headphones for home. I also do not want a DAC on my portable amp. It is useless, and I don't want to pay for it when I know I won't be using it.
Sound quality is the MOST important, but if two amps are of equal sound quality, here are my secondary preferences in order of importance:
Size
Durability
Looks
Battery Life
Thanks for your suggestions.
