make virtually no difference to the maximum volume? When driving some HD555s or AKG k141-2s, (or even some earbuds), when it is on maximum volume, the difference is very small. This is with a Sansa Clip as the player... if I sit in a quiet room and attempt to tell the difference, the amp on full power increases the output by the equivalent of four pressings of "up" on the Sansa's volume (there are 40 intervals between mute and 100%, so about 10%). I was under the impression that with a headphone amp I'd be able to leave the player at about 30% volume, and be able to amp headphones up to a comfortable maximum volume. With the E5 I can't even tell if it is plugged in it makes so little difference!
Is my one just rubbish or are they all like this?
