Hi Guys,
I've recently bought some Phonak Audeo PFE112's to use with my iPhone and I'm very impressed by the quality and clarity of the sound (still trying to decide which filters I like best). However there's a tiny fly in the ointment. I've run all my music through mp3gain to sort out the clipping, originally at 89db but I've upped it to 92db to try and get a bit more volume out of the Phonaks. I like my music fairly loud at times and even at normal levels the volume on the iPhone is pretty much as high as it will go.
So the upshot is I am looking for a portable amp which will work with my phone (gsm interference?) and doesn't cost more than £50.
I was drawn to the Fiio E5 but then I've read on here that it doesn't boost volume that much.
Your opinions would be much appreciated.
