I find that JH Roxanne earphone not really goes well with AK240 player, due to lack of power to push through the quality should be getting for the Roxanne.

I have a ZX2 as well, I prefer the 240 pairing with the laylas by a decent margin.

A slight upgrade:
 
- iBasso DX50 with Panasonic FC caps mod,
- Shure SRH440 with cable from eBay, SRH840 pads and Sennheiser band foam,
- Havi B3 Pro with ear hooks and foams from Penon Audio

It's the Amperior. I have original HD25, and one day (when trolling eBay pays off) a handsomely priced HD25 Alu. 

 
Just waiting for the right time. I really like Amperior btw, gives me a nice break from IEMs.

Hi,
 
I've noticed that you have Hum Pervasion DAP . What's the difference between Hum and Samsung S4 with UAPP as a DAP in terms of sound quality ?

I've never heard of UAPP sorry. I can tell you while Hum Pervasion sounds great it's far from a Samsung Galaxy S4 experience (which I own). Hum runs Jelly Bean but it's quite ordinary in Android performance. I think you best read about it.

It's sound performance is very good as a DAP, around DX90 or Pono player levels, just don't expect a top shelf Android experience in usability.

I'm in 2 minds myself, should I invest in something better than the TF10s ( some major comfort and seal issues ) IEM wise or should I go to a portable can like the HD25s/Bose QC25 (the NC is the temptation here)/MDR-1A or something along those lines. The world of audio is a cruel one

UAPP (USB Audio Player Pro) for android is ultimately designed to be utilised with an external DAC and to use your android device as a high quality digital transport so using it stand alone with just your S4 is no better than using the standard android music player.
 
A popular DAC/AMP for android and IOS is the Oppo HA-2 as well as the FIIO E18 . The Galaxy S4 supports OTG so you should have no issues with the Oppo, FIIO or any other USB compliant DAC/AMP.
 
If I was you and had an S4 I would seriously consider the Oppo. That way I would have a high quality rig albeit not that portable along with a top shelf android experience and also have the benefit of being able to use the Oppo as a desktop amp for my PC. It will also act as a portable charging bank for your S4. A very versatile toy!!

@ Leviticus

Just bought a ZX2 myself and love it to bits. Do you use the amp for extra volume?
