What would you recommend for under $150 as an amp for the Q701? At that price point could you endorse the E9?
I would only get an amp for them if:
- Your going to be using them for music and not just gaming, and
- Your also plan on getting a decent source. (I'd rather listen to an E10 alone Vs. an E9 alone used with my soundcard as a source)
The E9 is alright. It is a bit dry and thin (slightly recessed mids) sounding. If you go for an E9, I would buy it used off the FS forum and save yourself $30. You would then have enough money to get a DAC. There are always E9's for sale on the forum.
Another option is this cheap bravo amp > http://www.bravoaudio.com/bravo2.html

chicolom, I was pointing out no need for amp for volume for the Q701 when the modmic is added into the mixamp.
I use the Q701 strictly for gaming and nothing else. It's just way too bright for me listening music to it
In that case, I wouldn't invent any more money into them.
