The I don't want to listen to the announcers in fifa rig.  I might upgrade the amp eventually but, not sure if it's worth it if all i want is volume boost.

hd558's? Amp shouldn't make a huge difference. Can you tell a difference between using the e6 and straight from the zip?
 
P.S. what cable is that on the 58's? Doesn't look stock, at least not the stock cable I got with mine...

It sounds a little bit better at max volume and allows me to get higher volume levels than I was getting without the e6.  I already had it so I figure I might as well use it.  And the cable is this one http://en-us.sennheiser.com/hd-5x8-short-cable

Nice. Have you tried the bass boost? If so, how does it sound with the 58s?

Honestly haven't bothered since bass is more than adequate for me.  Edit just tried it. At the lowest bass boost it seems like it would be overkill

My portable setup. iphone 5 -> Fiio E18 -> 1964 Ears V3 
I'm more than happy with this setup, hope it stays that way.

Hi guys quick question which I thought might get a quicker answer here than elsewhere.....

Can anybody tell me whether the RSA Intruder DAC/AMP will work with the iPhone5 / iPad4 on IOS7 and using the Lighning to Camera connection cable.

I'm currently using an iBasso DB2 and Duet amp, but finding this is really to cumbersome to keep carting around with me.

Cheers

It won't mate, it won't. Well, as long as you stay away from head-fi you should be good. Head-fi is poison

Need to post my Note 3>Beyerdynamic A200P>Velodyne vPulse rig. I'm still struggling to find a replacement for my Image One's. Onkyo ES HF300 are no good, same for Focal Spirit One. Next try, Sennheiser Momentum.

Really digging this setup.  Can't get much more portable than something you already carry and a pair of iems.  I wish I could find a pair of iems with the remote by my belly button instead of by my left shoulder and skip the mic part but, oh well.    Iems are soundmagic e10

I'm not sure if the Intruder dac has been confirmed to work with the CCK, but the ALO International + has.  And the International + has a 24/96 dac as opposed to the Intruder's 16/44 dac...
 
Maybe email Ray to confirm?

Cheers for that mate,

I tend to find and have heard that ALO amps tend to have a fair bit of hiss with sensitive IEM's? What's the international like?

The International wasn't great, but the International + is supposed to be quiet, even for sensitive IEM.
