Im in need of an amp for my setup on my new q701s.
My setup is
Titanium HD> ? ? ? > Q701
Would really like to spend under $250
Thanks
I like my FiiO Mont Blanc E12. It offers basically the power of an E09k in your pocket (over 880 mW into 32 ohms). Lots of kick, body, authority, with a balanced, honest approach to sound. It's not as analytical as another headphone amp I have, it's character is more like my receiver, detailed but not distracting from the musicality. That's without the bass boost. Focused only on the extreme lows, I like that I can leave it on and it'll only make itself known when a song digs really deep. It's only about a 4 dB boost.
$120 available for purchase through Micca, initial stock is limited however, and there is talk about changing the boost to affect more of the mid-bass and be less subtle. If you like the boost I described, you ought to buy soon, if you only want to use it unboosted or with a stronger boost...
