is everyone satisfied with their E6s? how about the EQ settings? I have a thread about it, please check it out.

I can say very honestly that I would buy an e6 simply because I think it's a cool product, not because I need it to drive my headphones.

Personally since i use the 10 band eq the e6 is useless to me. The bass boost is very steep too ,about +6 db from 300 hz and below from what i can hear.

The EQ settings on the E6 aren't worth using. Use the EQ on your source instead.

No, unless the sound of placebo is important to you. As long as you've got the power you need, you are set to go. If you have a problem with your sound quality, always look to your cans. Electronics should all be pretty much the same as long as they're performing to spec.

This was very helpful.  Oftentimes the idea of more money makes stuff "sound better".  I have found the E6 to do a pretty good job.

I have heard on a pioneer mixer htf600s  and the result was fantastic and a LOOT better than my laptop's output..
Also , should i buy fiio e6 or e5? I have been reading but i cant decide.. I lead towards to E5 because of the design (metal against plastic)
and equaliser is better than e6 (at least thats what i have read?)
 
Thanks!

With FiiO E5 / E6 / E7, assuming the input device has a high enough level, you should be able to get 50 mW or so into 56 ohms.  So that's plenty and would be 117 dB SPL or so, assuming the headphones could actually handle that.
 
E5 and E6 aren't much different, so if you like the E5's design, get that one instead.
