Ok, so I've read about both of these, and I've seen what you guys said about the two, but I would like your opinion on which one is more optimal for my situation. I think I am going to be getting the m50s as my headphones, and as an audio source is my trusty-yet-busted-but-soon-to-be-fixed iPod 5.5th Gen. I will be using the amp mostly on the go, I listen while I go about my daily buisiness. From what I have read, the e7 is a DAC amp, and the e11 is just an amp. I've also read that the iPod ha it's own DAC, but it's not as good as something built just for DAC, the whole "jack-of-all trades, master of one" principal. I've also read about how it can be used with the e9 desktop amp. What is the purpose of that combo? I imaging once I get my own place and stuff (only 17, but I imagine I will be moving out sometime or another!) having a desktop amp and a nice stereo system and all that, but for now I am in portability mode. So i guess the question is which of these two amps is better for my purpose? I use amps for adjusting the EQ, as the iPod only has it's presets and not much in the customizability dpt, as well as being able to boost my cans a bit. Any thoughts?
