Yes, for better quality headphones, it is recommend to purchase headphone amplifiers. The E5 is a portable headphone amp. I personally do not like it very much.
The purpose of a headphone amp is to drive your headphones at a larger volume without creating distortion. I'm pretty sure you're new to the audio-area, but I'd recommend looking at head-fi.org for recommendations. If you want to get really good bang for the buck, I'd recommend the E7. Fiio just released a E6, but I've never tried it so can't say anything about it.
There's tons more I could say, but for now, maybe upping that budget of yours will allow you to look at some more amps
