 A very cool gadget that works as advertised. April 10, 2010

I have always lowered my expectations of portable music players due to their convenience. They have always been exciting in some way, but lacking in another. My best headphones could not be driven directly from media players, and the ones that could, always seemed to have that "portable" sound, meaning all the frequencies were there, but something was still missing. This little amplier allows me to hook up my venerable Grado SR200 and my super-comfy Sennheiser HD580 with little trouble to my 30GB Zune. I set it to "classical" in the preset eq. I usually encode my music to either WMA Lossless or 256 MP3. This combination blows away any of my accepted preconceptions of what low cost electronics could do. I am aware that there are more optimized and far more expensive solutions out there, but what is the fun in that? This little amp is well built, has outstanding battery life, and includes all the accessories you'll ever need to make it work. It you don't mind looking like a space cadet carrying around full-sized headphones with your media player, this thing will give you 85% of the experience of a mid-priced home system. I highly recommend it to anyone who dislikes in-ear earphones and misses what music really sounds like. At this price, there is no way you can go wrong.

I really like this little device. It does add some depth and bass to my HTC Incredible Smartphone. I use the phone as an MP3 player and the E5 provide a bit more Bass Boost. Don't expect too much from the unit, but it does help. Overall worth the $20 price.
Just what I wanted December 4, 2009

I'm hard of hearing. I could not hear my lap top on an airplane.
The FiiO E5 is great.

Not a miracle worker or anything, but does exactly what you need it to for the price. Thumbs up.
