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

Anyone have experience with both?
I am not talking about low end equipment, obviously I will be investing in a proper amp to drive whichever cans I get, I just wanted to hear from someone who has actually done some A/B with these two.
It's not even a contest. Unless you listen to flatulence-core, the Sonorous VI (or Pandora Hope... whatever) will win hands down.
The balanced armature does a phenomenal job with the highs... very much like the HD800s.
Just got off the phone with the USA branch of FAD; there will be more to come here in the USA. No worries.
If you want the Sonorous X, they are available for pre order at the moment for 4k... 20% off. There is also a pair of their flagship IEM 50% off as a demo.
