whats your price range for the amp?
make sure not to go to cheap, the HD650 need and deserve a good amp.

Finally got mine on tuesday! got a great price from razordog deals (i'm from canada so they are all >$500 CAD. From razordog it worked out to be around $385ish after taxes.
Have no amp/dac yet but have a e7+e9 combo on the way (got a budget thing to hold me over for now) next step up would likely be an audiogd if they would release a FUN with the new sabre chips (fingers crossed) but even flac files unamped straight out from onboard sound the sound quality is amazing! Compared to my gaming headset (logitech g35 usb) it simply blows it out of the water! (i totally regret blowing over $100 bucks on these things I only use it for the mic for skype these days as it appears I have grown out of video games (none can hold my interest for longer than 3 weeks) and have since picked up an electric guitar.
My only other decent monitor is the Triple.fi i had for bout 4 years which i think is dying on me (left bud beginning to crackle). To me, 650s have a much much wider soundstage and clarity vs the triplefi. Only thing I miss from triple.fi is the isolation since the 650s are wide open cans and my PC is an overclocked gaming rig with 10 x 120mm fans (it's probably overkill but i'm pretty paranoid about heat). The 650 can't block out the vaccum cleaner of a pc for now I'm hoping to pick up a laptop sometime soon (have my eyes on an asus U36JC when it releases up here in canada)
I'm definately happy with the purchase. It sure lived up to the hype!
Hi, would anyone recommend me a little something?
I want to get hd650 and a decent amp and now i can't decide - should i get fiio e9 (i already have e7) or save up and get lehmann rhinelander.
Can you help me?

Why not go with M stage instead? Its a clone of the Rhinelanders bigger brother. I always enjoyed the HD650 more with tubes than solid state. I found tubes can smooth out the "sizzle" or "fuzziness" in the HD650s treble regions.
