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, I am suspicious of manufacturers like Chord who make outlandish claims, tout over-the-top specs like 768kHz PCM, or claim they can deliver high-quality audio over lousy connections like Bluetooth. Who are they marketing to? Dolphins? Then again, even reputable firms like Bryston have yielded to audiophile snake-oil cultists and started selling power conditioners.
