Portable Headphone Amps

Electric Emokins

ok so ive decided to go with Beyerdynamics DT 770 Pro headphones the 250 ohm set, but i need a portable headphone amp to go with it. I saw the FiiO E5 Headphone Amplifier on amazon for under $20 (about €15) Im willing to spend a decent bit more then this but considering i would have just spent €145 on headphones i dont want to go over the €200 euro mark. which PORTABLE headphone amps do you think would work really well with DT 770 Pro headphones and arent to expensive? Thanks (:

FiiO just released a new version of the E5, namely the E6. You can read a review of it here: http://www.inearmatters.net/2011/08/reveiw-fiio-e6.html

I guess you could try that, but honestly 250 Ohm headphones are not for portable use at all, and you better be confident that your home setup is able to power them suitably too.

they have an e11 out now :P
but i might have found a headphone amp that'll power the 250ohm headphones outside so i can travel and listen to quality music at the same time this little amp seems incredible its no bigger then a set of keys and costs around $60 (:

The E11 and E6 are different lines. The E11 came out a while back, as well as the E7 and E9.
