RE0 + bass = RE0 with custom tips, made of hard material preferably for better focus.

Otherwise, RE0 outclasses RE1 in almost every way. Oh and RE1 absolutely needs a good amp. RE0 doesn't really need one. |

From everything I read the rockbox equalizer offers better bass, both in terms of quantity and quality, than the fiio e3/e5. Consider just getting an inexpensive player like the clip and rockboxing it, instead of spending the money on an amp.
Hey have you tried any decored Shure olive tips? That in combination with around 70 hours of burn in has really brought out the bass. I'm not left wanting bass any more. Everything is nice and full sounding now.
