So I don't have much experience with headphone amps, but after listening to my music on my Fiio E9 for a day I can confirm what others have said in this thread. The Fiio E9 is a very neutral amp that doesn't color the music at all. It's also extremely powerful.
But how would you know this?
If you are using the amp to fully realise the SQ of your headphones, then what are you comparing the "neutrality" to?
Anyway, does anyone know how this compares to other desktop amps, and other desktop amp/DACs? I'm really really interested, but I want to know I'm not throwing my money away on a 'toy' that does little for my SQ.
FYI I have an onboard soundcard, and my phone collection includes: re0, m50, hd668b, and HD-25-II
I also have a teclast player arriving, but am skeptical that it will be able to drive the m50s to their potential.
Also thinking of acquiring a k702 in the next year or so, and I've read the comment that they actually come alive with the e9?
Can any one give me some sort of objective comparison to other amps? Unfortunately it's not terribly helpful when it's a reviewer's first amp, or that they say it's great for the "price range" since that doesn't really give me any objective idea about how good it is.
aah. please. help. I. am. desperate. to. know. how. good. this. is.
