Seems to be a good advice, but I'll need to use the DAC part of the Zen DAC as my audio controller so I'm affraid not to get the pure sound of the L30 as long as my signal is passing through the Zen :/
I really wouldnt worry about it

is it worth to get a tube amp for a budget of like 350-400€ ?
No, and especially not with 80 Ohm headphones.
from a source that will accept no questions returns.
They all do, in Europe there is a mandatory 14 day right to return without questions asked when buying online. The retailers might also offer longer intervals (30 days is common).Don't you live in the UK? Should be the same there.

Ok I think i'm fine with the E30/L30 combo then,
I love design of Schiit products but don't think I can get an equivalent combo for the same price range (+ 60€ for the shipping from USA :facepalm:)

Yes, true . Some are easier to return to than others in these trying times though.
