Hey guys, I'm new here.
I have some Audio Technica ATH-M50s... and they're pretty good. One thing that bothers me is that my phone can't drive them that well. I have a speaker amp that also serves as a crude headphone amp, and it has the ability to completely burn the drivers in my M50s up if I wanted to. I can completely max out the bass that these things can do, if I want to. My phone (RAZR HD) can't really do that. I'm considering the Fiio E11, but I'm afraid it won't have enough power and I've heard things about it breaking and dying over time. I'm always considering a new pair of cans, since my main issue is with the M50s... they have too crowded of a sound stage, not enough bass, and the highs are a bit harsh and cold at times. Any tips?
