i'm having a little trouble deciding on what portable headphone amp to get. it will be powering sennheiser hd 558's and the audio source is my Samsung galaxy s3. i get no battery life with these headphones they are the 50 ohm version. my price range is around $50 and i live on the wet coast of Canada (aka the same city as Linus and slick) EDIT: it needs to be small enough to fit in my pocket
