Hey guys.
I'm new in head-fi and want to put together a good portable rig, so I've been reading a number of threads at Head-Fi (pretty good info, BTW).
I'll be using my setup for travel (airplanes, hotels, etc): iPod 5G, and if going with an amp will have a pocketdock for the line out, probably a Cardas cable, SR-71 amp, and ER-4S. I could otherwise avoid the amp altogether and use instead the ER-4P.
What do you think? Do you believe the improvement in sound quality would be worth the extra $450 to your ears?
Thank you guys in advance!

PS: I know I should try the two setups on me and see if the difference is worth the money to me with my ears, but travel keeps me away for long periods so I want to take the first stab based on your point of view.
