what would be best for my next UPGRAGE

Sony NWZ S746 (32GB) > FiiO e11 (waiting arrival) > Grado Sr60; AKG K26P; Philip SHP 8900

still waiting e11 to arrive as my Little dot micro + died because of ants infection...Ā  mad.gif bad ants

so what would be my next upgrade?

should I buy Ipod + LOD or sony is better?

or should I buy Senn HD555 or other (ER4p or ur suggestion)?

please... need adviseĀ  icon_question.gif

The newer Sony models does not have a dock connection right hmm.gif Which means you can't bypass the characteristic of the in-built amp.

By the way, had taken the liberty to re-post your review at the sales thread, hope you don't mind.

This is a sum of 2 different posts by Bro @predicate undefined at the E11 sales thread:

Post #59

emm...
what can I say...
in short, it BLEW me away

recently I begin to listen to Kenny G - Loving you
I used to play saxophone before, I play tennor saxophone
but listen to grado, with unamped, never really pleased me,
when the amp arrive, and that is the first song I listen to...
sheeeet... its sounds almost real...
darn, its good.

then I plug in philips SHP8900, I never expect much from this
but its even better for saxophone sound. the high notes really 'hit the spot'
I can't get THAT sound on my AKG K26p, or Grado SR60, or Sony NC earphone
too bad the cable sleeve starts to break and fall apart to pieces. aging problem I think. need to recabble,
now I begin to like my SHP8900

the only down part is
there are gap when turning volume CW to CCW.like 1mm gap, is it normal or just mine?
of course it doesn't effect anything, just.... u know. being fussy I guess

summary:
it increase the soundstage of my grado and akg
it adds clear and crisp, can hear clearly during vocal offbeat of Flyleaf - All around me
it can drive my philip SHP8900
the EQ selection from 0,1,2 really helps when switching earphone/headphone.
consider as small
Excellent, at least for me

it beat my previous amp, little dot micro +.

Post #61

Now enjoying Keisha - Blow. My grado vibrates because of the bass boost.
not that I enjoy loud music and big bass, but enuff to show of to people who don't know 'audiophile'
and keep saying 'why the heck I spent the money for all that stuff'

and the journey continues...

With FiiO E11 via FiiO L3 LOD, you will get much improved clarity on the mid/hi and tighter bass from your iPad to your Tour. nod.gif

You will need to connect the iTouch to the FiiO E11 via FiiO L3 LOD and you will get much imporved clarity.

so bro, for a budget of approx rm1500, is this the best i can get?

e11 + L3 LOD + beats tour?

i have not purchased any one of them yet. still thinking which combination is the best. am more favourable to beats branding for the plugs as i understand its more bass oriented. any suggestions bro?

thanksĀ  cool2.gif

Do consider the Quincy Jones Signature Line's Q350 from AKG. It comes with 3 button Control Talk for Play, Pause, Skip, Volume. However, as with the Beats Tour, when you use an add-on amp, the Control Talk will not function.

Question.. I have a E7 but im thinking of getting a Asus Xonar STX. Would there be a difference if i connect the two together? Or is it better if i just buy a E9/E11 and connect it to the E7? hmm.gif Usually use speakers (cheapo Edifier E3100..hehe), ATH-T500 or Monster Turbines.

You can't compare the E10 with the E11. They are built for different applications. You will need to decide on your needs before considering either the E10 or E11, maybe even the E7.

E10 = DAC + AMP, only USB input and power. Design to be used solely with your computer.

E11 = AMP with 3.5mm analog input and in-built re-chargeable battery. Design to be used with both your computer and DAP as just an external amplifier.
