What would be a good portable Dac/Amp to use with my HD6xx and Sony Xperia 1 V cell phone?
I am new to this hobby. I purchased a HD6XX and plan to use it with my Sony Xperia 1 V cell phone, that has a 3.5mm jack. I was wondering if I needed a portable dac/amp or just a portable amp and if so what would one recommend? Any assistance one could provide, would be greatly appreciated. Kind regards, Haz

On the other hand, each headphone has a different sound signature and sound good in different ways. I too have a pair of HD700, which I love, but there are some downsides to them (can be fatiguing and leak sound excessively at loud volumes). Only reason to consider these K7XX is if they compliment the weaknesses of your Sennheisers (I am not sure of this) or just to try something new.
Maybe leakage wasn't the proper term to use, but if you turn the volume up loud enough (with enough power from an amplifier) those HD700 will be as loud as small speakers.
And since the same thing is happening to the K7XX I don't think the street price will go that high unless you wait for a long time(then you risk another drop).
So these are pretty much like the K702? Because thats pretty much the thing if I can just buy those and get the same sound quality as these and same comfort then I'll just get those don't really care for limited edition but thought these were also special in that they would sound beter etc. and are more comfortable.
Thanks for all the good answers :)
